I was disappointed that the snow came in today and interrupted my work out schedule. However, I do have my stationary bike at home and can use it on these days! Just did a nice 20 minutes at a moderate pace....which was perfect tonight. And...since I will probably be home tomorrow too since we got about 5-6 inches of snow here..I will jump on the bike a couple times tomorrow.

It has been one of my best buys this year.

    We deal with snow all the time here and I have incorporated it into my exercise routine. Snow shoeing, snow shoveling, hiking through the snow, etc. I love being outside in the fresh air and I cannot believe the calories I burn doing these things. (I wear a heart rate monitor, so I know just how great a workout it is!!)

    Shoveling snow is a great work out. I burned like 1700+ cals today shoveling.
