Picking the right active gear can make all the difference

Make sure you have the right clothing for the activity at hand. Here are a few things to consider when you pick out your active wear:

Think about the climate you are exercising in
In hotter seasons, choose loose, natural-fibre clothing for your workouts. This can help prevent issues such heat stroke or heat cramps. If you're going to be outdoors, use lighter colours. During the cooler seasons or for an environment that is artificially cooled, choose clothing that can easily be layered.

Consider your range of movement
Choose loose clothing that allows you to move comfortably - especially if your exercise requires a larger range of motion.

Wear clothes that make you feel good about yourself
Remember that you automatically feel more comfortable if you're exercising in clothes that don't make you feel self-conscious. The better you feel in your clothes, the better the chances of you feeling more positive about exercise, which will ultimately make you want to continue doing it.

Don't forget to wear the right shoes
When you choose shoes for your workout, keep in mind the type of exercise you're going to do. High-impact exercises such as running will need even more consideration. If you need help in picking the appropriate shoe, think about having your feet analysed at a sport gear store to make sure you don't invest in a shoe that might end up injuring you.
