It is pretty traditional to make the resolution to be fit by summer, we are here to help you achieve your goal.

Wearing the correct footwear in exercise

The correct shoes can make a tremendous difference in the quality of your workout in terms of having the correct support and body alignment for the activity. Correct support will enable you to freely move and not have to suffer from adverse affects of each movement. For running we need the correct running shoe that fit our feet, every running shoe is not the same, different shoes fit different feet. Thus, when shopping for a running shoe be careful to get one that is right for your particular feet and walking pattern. In Aerobics we need support for shock absorption, lateral movement and foot control. The shoe should also be light weight for easy movement and transitioning. There are several good aerobic shoes on the market, but again like running shoes, get the one that is best suited for your foot. It is extremely important to choose what is comfortable and supportive. A suited aerobic shoe can mean the difference in knee pain, back pain, shin pain, foot pain and hip pain as well, because it is all connected and one certainly does affect the other. We want the best out of our workouts at Freedom Fitness Center and I believe that we can accomplish this by having the right tools we need. So come on everybody, lets get fit and be injury free and have a blast doing it by wearing the proper footwear.

Freedom Fitness Center, Founder
