Ok, It rains a lot here in Florida, and for my exercise cardio I like to walk outside a few miles. But I know I don't want to walk when its rainy out cause I don't want to catch colds. What does everyone do for rainy days to exercise?

I am currently doing Jillian Michaels Body Revolution, and thats done in home! Grab a workout video and do it indoors on rainy days, it is summer after all..and with summer comes all those thunder storms!0

Walk in place while watching TV!0

I have a treadmill at home, or I go to the YMCA! But... If it's sometimes just a light rain, I'll go run in that... It's refreshing!!!0

I jog all over the house- while doing dishes, watching TV, cooking, etc. I make it a game with my son.0

If it rains on rainy and stormy days, I stay inside and lift weights and do cardio and yoga instead of walking outside, because the ground is too wet and muddy. Otherwise, if it's stormy and a tornado or a hurricane comes through my area, I'd watch news coverage on tv or take time to exercise to keep fit.0

I love exercising in the rain- especially mountain biking. Being cold =/= catching a cold.
Lightning on the other hand- yeah I usually move it indoors and make it a strength training day.0 -
My fitness routine includes Curves (fitness center) 3-4 times a week. And that's inside so....
I also have an elliptical at home.0 -
I will go to the fitness center in the apartments where I live or I will do cardio with my 2 lb. weights at home to my favorite music.0
-
Home exercise DVDs or run on a treadmill.0

Go to the gym.
Lift in the garage.
Go outside anyways. It's Florida in the summer. It's always going to be raining so might as well not use that as an excuse.0 -
I love working out in the rain...You can't catch a cold just by getting wet, it's a virus/bacteria, so embrace our lovely weather and let it refresh you!0

I will sometimes walk when it is raining but I hate when the rain is over and the humidity comes in (it messes wth my asthma too) and I really hate when the mosquitos come out:grumble: I enjoy the Biggest Loser Boot Camp DVD - cardio and weights - mixes them both up.0

hey there! I walk all the time too! I have been pretty disappointed with all the rain here lately.....even today! I have a Wii & I will do the Wii Fit Plus. I just ran 20 minutes on there today. I love the Wii! I do like walking outdoors through my neck of the woods more though.0

I do the same thing I do for hot and muggy days... walk on the treadmill or use the elliptical
I save walking outside for the sunny cooler weather or for the days at the beach where I can walk with my toes in the water 0 -
mosquitos are the worst... I have to walk outside during the day 0

If i cant get to the gym due to the rain i will usually just pop in a walking video i have or do some Zumba.0
