PSG aka "The Meat Locker"

I was considering getting a space heater for the box, then I came across this on a popular fitness publication's website:


Q: My gym is frigid. does the cold air affect how much fat I can burn?

A: Actually, that freezerlike environment may help you. Exercising in the cold can prolong high-intensity interval work [sound familiar?], while hotter temperatures often lead to quicker exhaustion. What's more, a polar-style workout can mildly stimulate your metabolism to boost fat loss.
