Here are some essential accessories for walking.

1. Smartwatch or fitness tracker

Smartwatches and fitness trackers can accurately measure distance, speed, heart rate, and calories burned, allowing you to track your progress and develop personal goals, according to a study published in JMIR mHealth and uHealth.

2. Wrist or ankle weights

Wrist or ankle weights add challenge to your walks, helping you burn more calories and improve overall health.

3. Wear comfortable shoes

Wearing comfortable shoes is essential for effective walking. Good shoes protect your feet, ankles, and knees from injury and reduce your risk of foot problems.

4. Running belt

Running belts help carry important items like your phone, keys, or water bottle. By keeping your hands free, running belts allow you to maintain a natural walking posture and reduce strain on your shoulders and arms.

5. Water bottle

Staying hydrated is crucial for walking, says a study published in Nutrition Reviews. By carrying a water bottle with you while you walk, you can easily replenish fluids as needed, preventing dehydration and fatigue.

6. Headphones

Headphones for listening to music, podcasts, or audiobooks help time pass faster and make your workout more enjoyable.

7. Bath towels

Towels are an essential accessory for hikers, especially in hot weather or after an intense workout. Towels are used to wipe away sweat, keeping you cool and comfortable throughout your hike.
