Exercise can save your life says new survey

Shoes from Hi-Tec, Caterpillar and Merrell are perfect for taking exercise in, a past-time which can help you live longer, according to new research.

Increasing your exercise and ensuring that your drinking is moderate can extend your life span.

The findings, published in the European Heart Journal, reveal that those who partake in neither past time had a 30 to 49 per cent higher risk of getting heart disease compared with those who drank, exercised or did both.

Professor Morten Gronbaek, one of the researchers behind the study, said: "For both men and women, being physically active was associated with a significantly lower risk for both fatal Ischaemic heart disease and all-cause mortality than being physically inactive."

Whether you're looking at spending time in the gym, on the golf course or on the squash court the perfect shoes for exercise, from the likes of Merrell and Keen, can be found here at Fitness Footwear.
