Answer 1

One way to prevent hypothermia is to wear as many pieces of clothing as possible when exercising in the cold.Because hypothermia occurs when a low internal body temperature interferes with the body's ability to regulate vital processes, such as metabolism and the heartbeat so that wear clothes that wick moisture away from the body rather than holding it close to the skin.

Answer 2

The only problem with wearing too many clothes when its cold outside is that you sweat and sweat with soak the clothing causing you to be wet in freezing temperatures.
I say wear clothes that wick moisture away from the body rather than holding it close to the skin.
