Equipment in Walking Fitness
Most of us know that when riding a bike we have to wear equipment to keep us safe. Did you know that at what time you walk you still need to wear safety equipment? Why is that? Safety is number one. When you put safety first, you take care not to injure you.

Choosing Safety Equipment in Walking Fitness
When walking to fitness you need shoes to protect your feet, heel, ankles, and knees. The shoes you wear makes a difference, since if the shoes are not comfortable and do not provide you support it will cause you distress. Distress could lead to inactivity, since you will feel reluctant to continue walking to fitness.
Battling Weather in Walking Fitness
If the weather is bad and you cant get outside try using a treadmill to walk on inside the house. I know they are no fun but theyll do if it is nasty and rainy out. Set up a TV in the room with you or listen to your favorite CD. Even light up some candles and set them around the room while your walking to relax by and candles always make things look and feel more cozy than it really is.
