Keeping warm at winter time
 
Yeah so it's like 20 'F outside and it's only 3 pm, and I don't have any heat in my dorm room.

I have on 1 undershirt, 1 sweater, and a button down shirt on top of that. My legs don't get really cold, I figure it's because of all the weightlifting I do [I can squat 300lbs, leg extensions of 250-300, etc] so the blood circulation is great. I always wear shorts, even if it's super cold outside, my legs never seems to get as cold as my head or mid-section. But getting back to it, how should I get warmer...?

I know the body produces a little heat itself, but it's so cold it just pierces all my layers and chills me. Any help for a cold mate?

I have the same problem. I'm a sissy when it comes to the cold.

I wear warm socks and lots of blankets and a hoodie and a long-sleeve shirt under that. =p

A few days ago I had to wear a glove to keep playing games on my laptop 'cause my pinkies were losing feeling, haha.

just out of curiosity why dont you have heat in your dorm? also maybe you could go buy a space heater i've got one for my room works good!

I have a nice warm jacket, an Alabama Crimson Tide toque and a flask filled with brandy in my breast-pocket.

When I have cold, I always take a fleece blanket, it is warm enough. But most of the time my room is warm enough because of the central heating thing. :p

  • hot water bottle, nice an cheap and man does it warm u up, i put mine under my shirt on the stomach.
  • If you dont like getting up to boil water at 3am u can get these little heat packs that heat up (really well!) when u click a little metal thing inside them. they are also reuseable after boiling them, last for quite a while and are cheap :) heres a clip of someone activating it, the liquid turns to a white mushy solid inside it and really warm in the process.
  • YouTube - Hand warmer magic gel heat pad pack heat instantly
  • Also blood from your uncovered legs moving back up to the body may lose u heat, cover them up an see if that helps
  • Lots of pairs of socks on
  • Most of your body heat is lost through your head apparantly, so maybe a hat or hood?

I'll second that... I spent a lot of time in hockey rinks growing up, the cold isn't that bad.
