WINTER WEIGHT NO  MORE!
Not motivated by the dark and cold days ahead, well lets make some fitness plans to keep your weight loss goals on track. 

1) Winter Sports can be alot of fun.  There's skiing, snowboarding snowshoeing and skating.  Use your local indoor fitness centre to prepare for these great activities so you'll stay injury free all season long.  The bosu and balance ball are an excellent way to improve your agility, coordination and balance. And by strengthening your legs, core and upper body muscles you'll excel at these sports making them so much more enjoyable.

2) Indoor Cardio Classes are absolutely perfect for those who hate to exercise in the cold weather.  There's spin, aerobic, zumba, latin dance, kick boxing and indoor bootcamps.  Contact your local fitness centre and schedule sessions 2-3 times weekly and you'll be as fit as a fiddle come spring.  Just remember to ask what level each class is so your not disappointed and bring plently of water to hydrate yourself.

3) Outdoor Running and Power Walking are easy to schedule and cost next to nothing, perhaps the only expense is a good pair of runners. Start slowly with a walk/run schedule and progress from there.  Join a running group, Forerunners on 4th Ave, Vancouver, has excellent programs.  Be sure to well hydrate even though the weather is cool and always wear reflective clothing to be safe.  I would recommend to train with a partner if your exploring trail running and never use an IPOD when alone unless your absolutely sure of your surroundings.
