The right pair of exercise shoes can do a lot to prevent discomfort and injuries, personal trainers say. Here are some shopping tips:
36 . Depending on your workout(锻炼), shoes designed for walking, running, tennis, or something else will provide the best support for your feet.
Shop when you normally（正常的） exercise.Feet actually get bigger throughout the day, sometimes swelling(肿胀) up as much as a half-size by nighttime. 37 .

fit warmly and comfortably against your heel(脚后跟) and not move up and down. If your feet
are different sizes, buy based on the larger one.
Talk to an expert. Shoe salesmen and personal trainers can study your stride(步伐) and
the shape of your feet. 39 .
40 . Many trainers recommend changing footwear every three to five months,
if possible, to maintain（保持） proper cushioning (软垫) and support.
