Winter Fitness Plan?

[ny biker]

I go to the gym. If it's not too cold I'll take a long walk outside.

Winter is the time for me to do something different and not have to worry about stuff like cleaning the chain and remembering to buy more gu. I need the mental break. If the weather is warm enough I'll go for a short ride and I'll include indoor riding as part of my overall routine, but in general I shift my focus to other things.

I need the break, too, although last year, the break was a little too long as winter came early to Indiana. And this year I don't need much of a break because I've barely been able to ride the past couple of months.
Typically, I am able to ride a bit through the end of the year before the weather just turns to nasty and the roads are too covered in sand and salt.

I do a lot of spinning and yoga, some running, walking, weightlifting and core work. I just moved to a new town and was excited to see that the local rec center offers a class that mixes it up with different types of aerobic and strength training activities. I think I could benefit from some muscle confusion.

have you thought about getting a trainer so you can ride inside? thats what I'm going to do, thought I'd share. I don't do cold at all.
