With coronavirus surging, restaurants and bars closed and the homes of even friends and family off-limits, does that mean your winter social life is doomed?
No, according to a host of scientists, professors and trainers who are experts on the physiological impact of frigid weather on humans. Adapting to cold isn’t fun— who loves to shiver?—but it’s possible, scientists say. And as a bonus: Cold, like exercise, makes you healthier. “I literally do cold exposure training every day,” says Dave Whitley, a motivational speaker, coach, strongman and author of “Superhuman You.” He either turns his shower water to cold or submerges in a big freezer of nearly freezing water in his outdoor shed. “At first it’s really miserable, then bearable, then kind of pleasant,” he says.
If practiced consistently, training for cold can potentially transform a lonesome indoor winter. “If people follow a progressive intelligent path of delivering cold exposure, they will be able to tolerate the cold better, go out with friends and hang out outdoors on New Year’s Eve,” Mr. Whitley says.
Danish Mask Study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine. This is a 4,800-person randomized trial. identical results -- 42 of 2,393 people (1.8%) in the mask group & 53 of 2,470 (2.1%) in the no-mask group infected with C19. The difference was not statistically significant.
Haha. For those of us entombed in cold over the winter....you naturally get acclimated to it. Soon 30° feels ‘warm’. No training necessary.
Or you can just wear a ton of layers and try outdoor sports such as snowshoeing, cross country skiing, fat biking, even just walking - if a path is cleared.
Or I’ll just keep living my life and visiting family and friends like a normal person.
I love the cold! I find cycling in really cold temps to be an amazing workout and a true tonic for life’s stressors. My family thinks I am crazy! But it is my salvation!
Yes that’s literally what it means
The article states: 'That’s why a cold day in September feels less so in March.' I don't know about the rest of you, but I've never had the pleasure of experiencing a cold day in September during the month of March.
Been doing it for the last 10 years, sometimes cracking the ice of a pond before dipping in.
take off that very stupid hat LOL .
I'm going to be the brave outsider and do the opposite. Train for warm, under the rough terrain of my bed and piles of covers weighing down on me. Wish me luck!
To CONVINCE the public of the SAFETY of the vaccination ..Initially we should see some representatives from the researchers,CDC, US Congress folk , Biden -Harris et al (and other world leaders) get the shot(s) initially ..to convince the public of the safety.
good
