Sometimes you have to love working out in the cold, it is refreshing and challenging but you have to be careful so you don’t catch a cold or get injured during the workout because you run a greater chance to pull a muscle during a cold weather. So warming up is a must and a good stretch is mandatory.
Not only do I workout here in the cold, I bring my dog Tysoon with me who is a Amstaff, looking similar to a Pitbull. While I run, he runs next to me with weights, a common sport here in Sweden for dogs called Weight pulling. Dogs of any size compete against each other and the goal is to pull as much weight as possible. When we workout I let him pull a tire and a huge chain to get him stronger, there are dogs that believe it or not pull trucks that weighs at least tons.
