It's December, but the Chicago weather Wednesday morning was mild enough to get outside. At least Ryan Dempster thought so.

Chicago Tribune photographer Chris Walker spotted the former Cub, who still maintains a home in the Windy City, working out with a fitness ball along Lake Michigan's waterfront.

The result is pretty spectacular:

"It beats spending hours in a gym," the World Series champ told Walker.

Dempster spent nine seasons with the Cubs. He signed a two-year deal with the Red Sox after his 2012 season as a Ranger.
