I'm a mountain dwarf , just part of where I live.
I remember seeing a video years ago of a massive outdoor gym in Ukraine, where it gets quite cold. Guys would be out there in subzero temperatures pumping iron.
When my area cancels public school over single digit temperatures, I think of how most people in the DMV would never make it up where you live.
Parts of Montana as well , amazing country. Not east coast but it aint alaska lolMaine has to have what are easily the most remote places in the United States anywhere east of the Mississippi River.
I have a High Hat heater that puts out about same as my noisy forced air LP heater so I do the same. I can get the 16x24 gym up to 65 from 30 in about 10min.I run a forced air propane heater in the garage when it’s real cold. Turn it on a few minutes before I get out there and it ain’t bad.
Pro tip for ol man hands - keep the dryer on a quick connect with some duct tape and some extra flexihose , slide the bar in the dryer line and put it on for 15 minutes with no clothes in it ... mmmmm toasty warmI have a High Hat heater that puts out about same as my noisy forced air LP heater so I do the same.

The only drawback is all that iron is still radiating 30° cold So it gets fired up every now and then during my workout. Also, that concrete never heats up so your feet are always cold
I put the high hat heater in the squat rack with the bar in it. That works tooPro tip for ol man hands - keep the dryer on a quick connect with some duct tape and some extra flexihose , slide the bar in the dryer line and put it on for 15 minutes with no clothes in it ... mmmmm toasty warm![]()
