Getting Fit in Your PJ’s with Toning Shoes

As fitness shoes become more popular, more people recognize them on the feet of people walking in the mall, walking down the street, and walking in the grocery store. Before the end of the year is over, it is expected that FitFlop will be ready to deliver their new line of shoes that include flip flops, soft boots, and slippers. That’s right… SLIPPERS!

11 Ways to Lose Weight

The basics of weight loss is simple-burn more calories than you consume. It is of course easier said than done. Trying to lose weight can become boring and it can be difficult to maintain motivation. One way to avoid that is to have a general weight loss plan that includes variation on ways to lose weight. Your basic weight loss plan can include the following:

What Is On Their Feet? Toning Shoes

I saw it a few times at the mall and then in the grocery store, a shoe with a strange and curved sole. I had to ask myself “What is on their feet?” There was nothing special about the people wearing them. The people were of different body types and weight. There were women who were walking with children and men with a group of guys.

When to Retire Walking Shoes

Walking shoes do not live forever and you will eventually need to decide when to retire your walking shoes and buy new walking shoes. Good-bye to your favorite walking shoe doesn’t mean never seeing your shoe again! It does mean that your walking shoe may no longer be joining you for your daily walks like it use to.

How to Choose a Walking Shoe

Walking shoes don’t need to just look pretty they need to be functional.

Most people, when they see you walking, aren’t looking at your feet and your walking shoes anyways! Match your clothes and socks and pick a walking shoe that works best for you.

Walking and Nutrition – Toning Shoes

Well you are ready to walk, you’ve got your Stepgym shoes on (or traditional walking shoes), the sun is shining, and you are stepping out the door. You think you have thought of everything as you grab your water bottle. You may be missing something, though, have you thought about what you have been eating?

Understanding Metabolism

Though people have a different base level metabolism, it doesn’t mean the overweight person is sentenced to always being overweight because of a slow metabolism or the underweight person must always be underweight because of a high metabolism. Exercise, like walking, can help increase metabolism. Walking in a shoe like the Stepgym will increase the amount of exercise with every step.

Manipulating Metabolism

Metabolism can be manipulated to aid in weight loss. Metabolism is a balancing act that involves two kinds of activities that are occurring at the same time.

1. Anabolism-the building up of body tissues and energy stores

2. Catabolism-the breaking down of body tissues and energy stores to generate more fuel for body functions.

Adding Steps

It may seem that there isn’t enough time or enough opportunities to add walking in your routine. It may be easier than you think. Add steps to when you walk during the course of a normal day. This can be done wearing any shoe. To maximize the health affects of walking, many choose to wear the Stepgym shoe.
