I’ve been living in a multi-unit hostel/hotel for several months now and none of the windows could be opened. I could feel the toll it was taking on my respiration, I also had been sleeping 11-12 hours. After finally getting construction done on one of the rooms and being able to open a window, I stayed in that room and went from sleeping 11-12 hours back down to 8-9 literally overnight! Sleeping with the windows open is HUGE.

I love cold weather while I sleep. The house has to be 66-68 in order for me to sleep.

We love opening up our windows.

Fresh air... 🍃

The gym has a lot to do with weight loss, not just for cardiovascular health and building muscles!

what if it’s winter and -30°c outside. Hypothermia or more fat

Living on the ground floor there is a risk of burglars.

Lately, When it's been very-cold, Outside, l've closed the window, ln my Apt, To stay warm, Before going to bed. But, Halfway through the night, l've been waking-up, Due to headaches, Because, lt starts gets stuffy and l'm guessing the oxygen-level is low?

The gym doesn't have to do a lot with weight loss are you freaking kidding me?
You can train and put on some metabolicly active muscle tissue and you can do endurance training .... one of the most effective ways getting into a calorie deficit.

Yes, it is true that you don't have to do all this. You can theoretically be a couch potatoe and get shredded just by consuming less than you burn but it defenitely helps ... A LOT.

Ehh, It drops below zero where I live

[adaneboateng]

Ok I'm gonna buy me a convertible, drive 90 mph while sleeping and loose some weight. Fuck outta here bruh

[charliehorse]

[TopherJayy]

When I got mad at my niece during the winter I would have the window wide open to make her leave.

[Rahel]

Y'all gonna pay my heat bill when the heater overwork during the winter because I leave my window open? Lol

[debalight]

[jdavid]

They could not let him finish a sentence to save their lives

[benmcdade]

Yeah lets let in an unlimited supply of oxygen for that house fire that started while you were asleep. (50% of housefires occur during this time)
