Do you find being in good shape is less useful in the winter in a cold climate?

When I go outside I'm wearing a large jacket anyway.

But in the summer you can go out with t shirt and shorts

I get that its still good for health but for those few shallow reasons I mean haha

Anybody ever thought of this ?

Brb say a guy meets a girl for a first date. Wearing large jacket can't even tell what his physique is like .

being in good shape means maintaining my weight at ~15% bodyfat and yes, last time I had a cold or got sick was probably 1 year ago

That's why one usually bulks during the winter, cuts during the spring, and shreds during the summer OP.

It's easier to shovel the driveway. Which I thought would've been a good response until I read the lo-test, twink-mode OP.

Winter actually works in my favor because most guys look like chit in their oversized hoodie and bloated stomach. Good physique/genetics will give you a godly frame that even winter clothes can’t hide.

If you don't feel good about yourself after working out, then you're doing it for the wrong reasons.

No, it's super useful to me.

I've trained balance, flexibility too.

Helps when walking around and it's icy outside.

Things that used to cause pain and mild injuries are now just nuisances.

Since strengthening ankles something that would have resulted in a twisted ankle now is just more of a PITA.

My ankles are stronger and more stable.
The billionaire and the beggar both have 24 hours in a day.

That's why grandma's apple pie rocks and yours sucks.
