Fitness is a daily mantra for millions who wish to achieve prime conditioning or for those who wish to retain it. Fittingly, sports clothing has become a billion-dollar fashion industry as the demand for active-wear increases. The term sports clothing encompasses a variety of active and casual garments such as sweat outfits (a.k.a. track suits), short pants, shirts, jackets, hats, gloves, socks and footwear. Sports accessories cover even broader items and may include body sprays, deodorant, tote bags, vitamins, equipment and more. And don't forget about the cost of a gym membership.

As part of the overall, sports-industry, marketing strategy, many professional athletes and popular entertainers receive handsome endorsement contracts to promote all types of clothing and products. Everywhere we turn, we are bombarded with a commercial, radio spot, billboard or marketing campaign about the wonders of a running shoe, health supplement, workout regimen or sports drink. At times, this flurry of advertising seems inescapable.

But you don't need a professional athlete to convince you that an active lifestyle comes with numerous benefits. You are well aware that having a lower body weight, proper posture, strong core muscles and a healthy heart feels great. And when you feel great, the people around you benefit from your positive attitude.

Enough about the accolades of healthy living -- if you're going to remain healthy, you need to find something to wear. Nowadays, sports clothing is trendy, fashionable, and even designed to meet specific needs. For example, women use specialty products such as sports bras and men use specialty products such as groin protectors. For the jogger, footwear is of special interest and concern because improper footwear can cause painful injury to the feet, knees, neck and lower back. For the basketball, soccer or football player, use of a mouth guard is synonymously safe and prudent. And for the golfer, the gymnast, the swimmer or the bowler? No matter the type of athlete, each uses specific sports gear to achieve optimal performance.

So, whichever sport you enjoy, pursue an active lifestyle vigorously; the benefits to your health and state of mind are tremendous. When engaging in physical activity, ensure that your clothing fits comfortably and that your footwear is designed for the activity intended. Besides, injuries are the last thing your body needs when pursuing physical conditioning. And for those who need to make a New Year's resolution to get healthy? At least you can wear trendy sports clothing for now.
