Fitness: The most overlooked gym bag essential that could save your feet

Healthy feet are the foundation of every walk, run, gym session and workout, yet they are one of the most neglected parts of our fitness routine. Warm, enclosed training shoes create ideal conditions for sweat, odour and fungal infections, making good foot hygiene just as important as staying hydrated or wearing the right trainers. Knowing which foot spray to choose and when to use it can help you stay comfortable while reducing the risk of common foot problems. Fitness presenter and wellness correspondent Liezel van der Westhuizen shares expert advice on why foot spray belongs in every gym bag, how to choose the right type for your needs, and the simple daily habits that can help prevent athlete's foot, control unpleasant odours and keep your feet healthy. Whether you're a regular gym-goer, runner, walker or weekend warrior, these practical tips can help you protect the body part that carries you through every workout.
