Cold Hands

The cold weather is making my hands very cold to the point they sting and thermal gloves don’t work at all.

Can anyone recommended a decent pair thay will keep my hands warm as I was out exercising this morning and it was unbearable.

Stop exercising, stay in home and get fat.

Problem solved.

Put your hands between your arse cheeks - they're nature's pockets, don't ya know (according to Futurama anyways)

Would it be correct to assume you have quite dry skin on your hands? The stinging might be from the cold penetrating into tiny cracks in dry, chapped skin.

Get some white cotton gloves online, and before you put them on rub a nice thick hand cream into your hands to soften them and 'fill in' the cracks, then put your regular gloves over the cotton ones. Your hands will be warm and beautiful in no time, and the cream will help insulate them too. Long distance sea swimmers use waxy body creams to keep their skin from shrivelling in the water and drying up.

Even if you don't fancy the cotton gloves, use a cream and let it absorb before you put on your gloves - and make sure they're of breathable material - and it should still make a substantial difference, again assuming your skin is dry.

Our P.E teacher had this problem solved 20 years ago.

We were doing laps of the pitch in 2degrees weather in shorts and t-shirts, freezing.

He had his hands down the front of his tracksuit bottoms - cupping his bollocks. (Not in a pervy way) on the sidelines.

Get two of these

Layers my friend. In the same way that wearing 3 light jerseys is warmer than 1 thick jumper, wearing a thin glove under your normal glove will make you much warmer. I introduce, Liner Gloves.

This works because it traps the heat under several consecutive layers. So even if the wind penetrates the first layer, the second layer doesn't lose any heat.

Maybe you have https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raynaud_syndrome
Do your hands change colour? You could be one of the 4%.

Maybe its not for everyone, but as a mucker, I usually run a cold tap outside on a frosty morning, wash my hands underneath and dry them off with that industrial blue paper you get in a big roll.

Afterwards my hands warm up quite quickly.

I'd never have a cold shower, as it increases the white blood cells, that's not good...

Hands are ok though

1 spoonful of cement, twice a day. Hopefully it'll harden you the fcuk up.

Would the tap not be frozen?
