Former Olympic skier Kiki Cutter knows what it's like to be in cold temperatures while doing something extremely active. She suggests you pile on the clothes.
"Wear at least two to three layers with the top layer being a wind breaker," she says. "Bottoms should consist of one layer of long underwear and wind breaker pants."
"Never wear cotton," says Jason Fitzgerald, runner, founder and coach of Strength Running. "It retains moisture and doesn't block the wind."
You're going to be sweating, but you don't want that sweat to sit next to your skin and make you colder. Wicking materials will help you stay dry and warm from the inside-out," she say.
"Don't skimp on stretching," he says. "Stretching is especially important when it's cold and muscles tend to get cold and stiff. Try yoga or Pilates to keep your limbs loose and injury-free."
