The closer we get to winter, the more common it is for us to encounter cloudy days in which rain, cold and, in general, bad weather conditions become a regular occurrence. If we are going to do sports abroad, we have several months ahead of us in which it will surely cost a little more go out to do sports and comply with the routine that we have been following for so long.
Apple, however, offers us a series of resources to take into account that allow us to continue with our sessions, minimizing the problems that this type of problem can cause us. external conditions.
An accurate weather app
Although Apple allows you to activate alerts directly from its native weather application, the reality is that it does not always work as well as it should and, in some cases, if we have to trust it to be able to comply with our training program we would return home soaked more than once.
Luckily, the Cupertino company’s application application is broad enough for us to find alternatives that work perfectly for our use. One of them is the Bing search engine that allows us to access weather information directly from the app. It allows us to have the foresight both for hours as for days And, in addition, it has great reliability, so it is always an option to take into account so that, if we have some flexibility, we can choose the best times depending on the session we must do. Once the moment has been decided, all you have to do is make sure that your Apple Watch has battery for that moment and does not catch you in the middle of daily charging.
Apple Fitness+
If you are not a gym fan and it is not worth it to pay a monthly fee at a traditional gym because you hardly go to visit it on days when the weather is bad, Apple Fitness+ It is always the best solution.
Although it is not Apple’s best-known service, the reality is that it offers a large number of possibilities to all athletes who seek to complement our fitness routine. training with more sessions, without having to invest dozens of euros per month. One of the aspects I like the most about Apple Fitness+ is that we can filter the workouts based on the type of equipment you have at home.
In my case, since I have the minimum, Apple offers me a large number of sessions that it also updates daily and allows me to always have a complementary routine with which to continue doing sports at home even on the rainiest days. All of this rregistering the training on my Apple Watch and collecting a large amount of data through it.
As a last alternative, look at your rings
Apple rings are a very good way to maintain our motivation and continue forcing ourselves to play sports or leave the house even when we least feel like it. However, it is also true that it is not necessary to force yourself and there are times when we must accept that it is not possible to train and that’s it. This can happen to us when we are coming back from an injury, for example, or simply when weather conditions prevent it.
Be that as it may, at Apple we have the option to pause our activity rings and, thus, not lose the streak of training that we have for reasons beyond our control. The only thing we have to do is click on the graph found in the ring menu and click on “Pause rings.” A very useful, and little-known, resource that will allow us to deal with those days when it is not possible to train.
