Step 1
Buy walking shorts that remove moisture from the skin. Natural fibers are best as they cool while the wick away perspiration. Walking shorts made from natural fibers have a more relaxed fit as well.

Step 2
Wear walking shorts with an elastic band that does not require a belt. Belts are too restricting and can cause lower back pain. Walking shorts are supposed to be for exercise first and foremost and do not need fashion accessories.

Step 3
Put on a pair of lycra walking shorts to prevent "riding up." Lycra is more aerodynamic and the snug fitting walking shorts amplify the workout's efficiency by increasing blood flow.

Step 4
Workout only in properly fitted walking shorts and prevent chaffing and binding. Walking shorts need to have room to flex and move and should not be restrictive.

Step 5
Choose walking shorts according to their intended use. If the short are for serious power walking select a pair of lyrca shorts or sweats. If the walking shorts will be used during leisurely strolls get natural fiber knee-length walking shorts.
