5 Tricks to get your winter workout mojo back

To me winter is a glorious time of year. Crisp mornings & clear skies. It means ugg-boots, fluffy throw rugs and slow burning fires that warm the house to toasty levels. I love nothing more than curling up with my favourite book in my pj’s as soon as the sun has disappeared ( and sometimes sooner if I’m to be totally honest). All of these lovely things come naturally during the shortest months of the year. I’m a firm believer in honouring the natural cycles of our body and for me winter brings an unavoidable need for hibernation.  There is nowhere I’d rather be than snuggled up at home by the fire, which means that training has been a struggle. Workout gear Vs my velvet throw…? We all know which is more delicious right!. As for the shorter days? They too play to our hibernation desires and by 5pm I’m exhausted and drawn to my home cave which means setting off for my 6pm boxing session feels more like midnight.
