What do I wear when I workout? Read on...

Spending time outside in the cool, crisp autumn air is something most of us will enjoy this season.

If you are going to be walking, running or exercising outdoors, here are some tips about what types of clothing will be best for you to wear.

Unfortunately, autumn will also bring its share of rainy days to us as well and it is up to us to make the best of it! It is the perfect time to stop into Snap Fitness on Falls River Ave. to get yourself and your family set up with a gym membership.

These workout clothing tips apply to outdoor as well as indoor exercising.

Shirts:
Fabric that helps wick sweat away from the body (not cotton).

Jackets:
Fabric that repels water with a front zipper for easy removal and vents to help body from getting overheated.

Pants:
Fabric to help wick sweat away from the body, vents to help keep the body cool. Capri pants for warmer weather and long pants for cooler weather with zippers around the ankles for easy removal.

Shorts:
You can wear long or short shorts. Keep in mind, the longer they are, the more they will restrict your movement.

Socks:
Synthetic blends are best. No cotton socks! They keep the feet moist. Wool socks are good for cold weather. You can double up to help protect your feet from blisters if running.
