Who could resist that face? Not me. Meet Lucky, one of my dogs. Smart and full of energy. He loves his morning and evening walks... no matter the weather. So I strap on my sneakers and away we go... If you have a canine companion, one of the best ways to increase your workout while simply walking with them is to grab a pair of MBT's. They are medically proven to strengthen & tone muscles in the feet, legs, buttocks, stomach and back.
They also increase muscle activity & circulation.
