There are certain parameters which have to be kept in mind before selecting a training shoe. These days various types of training shoes are available in market but not every shoe is right for you. Lets get started with the guide to buy right training shoes for you. 😉
Know Your Shoe Size
Your feet determines which shoe is right for you. If you have wide foot, buying a norrow shoe thinking it will loosen out later, doesn’t make any sense. Always determine your shoe size before making the purchase. If your shoe size is not available then go for a one size large because your feet expands while working out.
Stability & Support
Always look for a shoe that has breathable material and provides support to you feet.Branded shoes comes with cushioned sole, which provides your feet some comfort and support. Never compromise with the comfort.
Flexibility
Flexibility in shoes is very much required while working out, specially at the forfeoot. Training shoes should bend approximately at the same point where your forefoot bends.
Determine if you have high arched or flat foot. If you have normal to high arched foot, buy a cushioned sole. People with flat foot should go for stability and neutral shoe. This will keep your feet in normal position and you will not feel pain in your feet after the training session.
Grip / Traction
A good training shoe should have amazing grip. You dont want to slip while running or slide of the treadmill. Training shoes have more grip than walking shoes. You must feel as the shoes are holding on to the ground.
These were some points which you have to keep in mind before buying training shoes.
