Hanging leg raises in 14 degree weather suck even more.

Aiming a satelite dish into the wind at about 30 degrees F is no picknick I discovered. Gloves are too bulky for wrench work, the dish gets stiff and cold.
But, PT in cold weather sucks no matter what. Even running I never got warm. Now that I have retired I fatted up to 190 at six foot. On AD I was usually 170-180. That's like zero insulating material. Any breeze and I got cold.
Thank God for Polypros and goretex.

I'm kind of laughing. Been an electrician since I retired. No, you can't wear the gloves. Kind of painful on the fingers.

They're not warm as real gloves of course, but they are better than nothing and still provide the tactile sensitivity required to shoot meth heads, errr hang satellite dishes.
