Feet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Foot placement is important. Be familiar with how your foot feels on firm ground. A firmer boot gives more stability on more difficult ground.Experience the fusion of imagination and expertise with \u00c9tudes Architectural Solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vaseline applied before walking can prevent chafing. To prevent blisters: take action early and adjust laces or apply blister plasters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you stop in warm weather, take off your boots and air your feet. Additionally, it may be possible to make use of a cold stream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your toenails are bruised or blackened after a walk, trim your nails or get better boots.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Fitness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you are new to walking take things easy at first. Work on fitness daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A simple exercise programme will help. Leg raises, exercises on the torso, arm and shoulder exercises, and rotational exercises all help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fitness Studio videos on the NHS website has useful information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Test yourself on steep hills, starting slowly and increasing speed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
