I Need Your Help With Get Fit Pod Episode 126 (3/2/10) Fitness Wear

Feb 17

Posted by Skip Orem in Skip's Slants and Rants | 1 Comment

I Need Your Help With Get Fit Pod Episode 126 (3/2/10) Fitness Wear- I’m in the process of producing content for the Get Fit Pod Fitness Wear Episode which will be released on March 2nd.  I need your help! I plan to focus on fitness wear for both the Summer and Winter seasons.  Get Fit Pod fans all over the world are experiencing one of these seasons throughout the year.  Here are some questions I hope you can help me answer;

1.  Road Warriors (the traveling kind) – I’m looking for a running shoe I can use temporarily when traveling.  Specifically, luggage friendly, meaning they will fit easily (not take up too much space) into carry on luggage.  The problem many of us have is that our favorite exercising shoes (mine are the Mizuno Wave Riders) are so “built- up” that they take up way too much space in the carry -on bag, or any other luggage for that matter.  Help me find exercise shoes that offer  some support and will not take up too much space.

2. Do you wear compression socks while exercising? What’s your favorite brand?  Do people actually wear them (over the calf) with  shorts.  What’s the benefits and downside of compression socks?

3.What is your favorite Spring and Fall outdoor exercising  gear? Sunny Days? Rainy Days?

4. What is your favorite pair of running shoes?  Cycling shoes? Trainers? Basketball Shoes? and why?

5. What’s your favorite sun protection lotion?

6.What extra lotions, etc. do you recommend for winter outdoor exercising.

7. When you look and feel your best at the gym or outside, what are you wearing?, brands, colors, fabric?

8. Hats?

9. Spandex?

10.  Tell me everything that you know about fitness ware?

Everybody,  I really need  your help, please respond either by comments to this post, or email me.  I’ll be producing the episode near the end of February.

Thanks, in advance, for your help.
