The Best Winter Workout Clothes for the Holidays

Staying active and fit seems to get harder with harsher weather. It's become a more well-known statistic that people tend to gain weight during the holiday season.

Thank you for your delicious treats, Pilgrims and Santa Claus.

With Thanksgiving approaching fast and December weather not far behind, it's time to start working extra hard to trim the edges and work towards--or keep--that beach body we all long for. 

But how do we gear up for the temperatures and terrain that comes with these frigid holidays?

I just may have a few answers to that question.

Mizuno Breath Thermo Pant

Mizuno doesn't just make baseball gear. Who knew, right?

These lightweight pants generate heat by absorbing sweat as you run, so you can focus on your workout rather than on the fact that you can barely feel your toes.

Price: $44.99

Manzella Polartec Power Dry Headband

Wrap this soft, lightweight headband on to stay warm. Your ears will thank you. Seriously.

Serving as both an ear warmer and swear absorber, the Manzella Polartec Power Dry Headband is also wind-resistant.

Affordable price too.

Price: $11.99

Manzella Windstopper Balaclava

For the days that are a little more hardcore and a simple hat just won't do, turn to this contoured cap that fits over your head and face comfortably.

Wind, snow, rain and sleet resistant, this headwear provides the perfect warming device for your long winter runs.

These are also great for dressing up like a ninja--kidding of course.

Price: $32.99

ASICS Thermopolis Lt. Run Pant

People have said these are so soft and comfortable you will want to wear them even when you aren't working out.

Not only are they comfortable, they are specially made with insulating material to help keep you warm in the harshest of climates.

Reflective ankle zips that accommodate your running shoes are just another perk ASICS has brought to the table.

Price: $69.99

Under Armour Balaclava

Under Armour is becoming the go-to climate control gear.

Here's another balaclava made for those who want a little more of a tighter fitting material. UA claims their balaclava is unrivaled, but Manzella might disagree. 

I'll let you be the judge.

Price: $24.99

Champion Compression Long-Sleeve Crew Top

Target and Champion Sportswear have teamed up to bring us this warm, comfortable and relatively cheap winter accessory.

Lightweight and perfect for a cold trip to the local gym.

New Balance Men's NBx Control Tights

When it comes to searching for winter fitness clothing for the lower half of the body, comfort should be a big concern.

The NBx Control Tights also contain a phantom waist to further enhance your overall comfort level. Perfect for a post-Christmas meal run.
