What is a good activity to do in winter?

Winter is perfect for things such as weightlifting -- exercise you would probably prefer not to do during the summer since you would rather be outside!

What do you know? I was just going to say that! The other cool thing about weightlifting in the winter is that as soon as you leave the gym, you're warm enough that you can walk around in a short sleeve shirt (for a few minutes, anyway).

As it so happens, after my afternoon CF session (which ends five minutes ago), I'm heading over to the gym to weightlift.

Ok, I have a new passtime. I'm excercising 10 minutes every hour, checking on the singles forums every hour, and in between that I'm doing some book writing. This is much more productive than just cuddling under the covers because I'll be in tight shape eventually. I want to get into better shape than I was when I was 15 and had 1% body fat and an 8 pack. I'll probably hit that goal in a couple years if I keep excercising up.

1% body fat? Is that even possible? And if it is... Is that really a good thing?!

Not to knock your goal of excercising though, excercising is a good thing in moderation.

Mountaineering and backpacking. A few friends and I just got back from a trip to the VA mountains and are going to NH next month. Nothin' like being freezing cold and the crystal clear winter skies up in the mountains. Alas, activities such as this tend to make your family think your nutzo.
