I hold my hands in front of my mouth and huff on them. Sorry, nothing creative or funny here. Move along.

I had a cold hand problem when I cross country skied a few years back. If you put your arms at your sides, then flex your wrists (like 90°s to the arm, I'm not sure exactly how to explain that).

Next lift and drop your shoulders, it looks ridiculous, but it worked for me very well.

I just go over to the fireplace and warm them(I have a old-fasioned wood burning stove). I'm used to going hunting at 5am, in winter, so the everyday cold here dosn't really bother me that much.

I know it sounds strange, but when my extremities are cold, I do a few jumping jacks, run in place for a few seconds, or pretty much anything to get the blood flowing. I find that simply putting them somewhere warm is a temporary fix, and if you can get the blood moving, it works a bit better.
Stomping your feet also works, it get the blood from you thighs (where there is a lot of it) into your feet (where there is less).

You cut open a taun taun and stick your fingers in there. If possible, climb in yourself. It's the obvious and practical solution.

Lightsabers work well for cutting them open

Try a combo of caffinated drink and asprin. The caffine raises your blood pressure and heart rate slightly, and the asprin thins out your blood. So the effect is that warmth that is transmitted via the Circulatory system moves faster. If you are in a cold environment I would suggest coffee, as the blood moving faster will lower your core tempature.

Wanted to let you know this works amazingly well (the jumping jacks) without investing any money. thanks!

You can come to Ohio and run with me every day for 8ish miles and you'll be cold in places you didn't know could get cold

70% body heat is lost through your head, hands and feet because of the large surface area to volume ratio and because alot of hot blood goes to your head first before the the rest of the body. Wearing good gloves and boots and scarves is very important.

I get a hot cup of tea and hold my hands around the cup, then when they're sufficiently warm, I drink it for an even stronger effect.

Wear gloves, and when you're not typing sit on them. I also chew on my knuckles and fingers, it's become a habit but it keeps them warm for a while...

The thing you don't want to do is take an excited dog out on a walk on a cold day... My hands felt like they were about to be broken off...

Oh and for feet I have these slipper booties, they make me look like I'm wearing a Onesie, but I haven't taken them off all winter they're so warm. ^_^
1 love onesies lol there so sweet
