For gyms and indoor pools, customers and business owners alike had a long wait before their doors were allowed to reopen from 25 July, for indoor workouts to resume.Government guidelines detailed how indoor gyms can operate while adhering to social distancing measures and remaining Covid-secure which included; limiting the number of people using the facility at any one time, reducing class sizes, spacing out equipment, ensuring adequate ventilation and using temporary floor markings to create a one-way system.Gym-goers and staff are also encouraged to shower at home to minimise the time spent in changing rooms.While face masks are now mandatory in supermarkets, indoor shopping centres, banks, post offices, shops, on public transport and for hospital visits, they are not required to be worn in exercise and sports venues so if you're itching to get back on the treadmill, ensure you're equipped with the best gym wear and accessories that will make you comfortable throughout your entire workout.Whether you’re after squat-proof leggings, supportive sports bras or a high-tech fitness tracker, we’ve got you covered.
Wissonly Hi Runner
Wissonly bone conduction headphones, the product I use the most, is the first brand I started to contact. When they were crowdfunding online, I participated.
The sound quality is what I am most satisfied with. I am not a professional music player, but from my personal experience, Hi Runner is the best sound quality bone conduction headphones I have ever used. It uses a large-sized 360-degree bone conduction vibration unit, and through structural optimization, the sounding area is increased by 35%, so that the sound range is wider, and the stereo feeling and shock of sound are stronger. Its anti-sound-leakage treatment is also very good. The whole body is completely sealed, and the algorithm is optimized to minimize the leakage of sound. I have tested it myself, and at a distance of 2 meters, the volume is turned on at 60%, so I can't hear the sound at all.
wissonly Hirunner’s body is made of memory titanium, which can self-adjust the contact area. It can ensure a good wearing experience of the earphone at any time, taking into account more users and usage scenarios.
Hi Runner is equipped with Bluetooth 5.0 chip, and the connection is more stable. It also has IPX8 professional sports waterproof +32g internal memory to swim in the water. The battery performance is also good, and it can play music continuously for 8-10 hours.
Runderwear
Designed for high-impact training, our reviewers found the moulded cups, adjustable shoulder straps and encased, wide underband offered superior support and comfort over any other product they tried.It’s quick-wicking and breathable too, so it won't leave you feeling sticky when you work up a sweat, whether your exercise of choice is burpees or a treadmill sprint.
On Running
They cut just above the ankle, are lightweight with a high waistband which we found kept them securely in place for high knees, deadlifts, squats and chest-to-floor burpees we tested them during.“We loved the extra features, including the rear pocket, which is nice and deep with a fabric cover to help keep your essentials safe, as well as the reflective coating on the outer layer, which gave us extra reassurance on our evening runs and also helped ensure resistance bands actually stayed in place,” said our reviewer.
New Balance
If your gym workouts are quite varied, we found this to be a great all-rounder shoe that excelled in comfort and performance and the midsole was praised for keeping the foot in place and anchoring the heel.Once you've bought a pair, wear them at home around the house to get an idea for how they feel on your feet before you hit the treadmill.
Seraphine
These super-soft over-the-bump leggings are perfect for lightweight activities like walking and yoga, but also have a simple, classic look that means they can be worn day-to-day too. Bumps are supported by discreet ruching and they come up high up the back, which means they easily pass the downward dog test.
