Just remember, you still need to practice social distancing!
. And because many masks are made from two layers of fabric, you don't want anything too thick — so, keep the number of layers in mind.
The second thing to consider is how the mask fits your face. You've probably seen a few different styles of masks, the most common ones being pleated — which look like surgical masks — and muzzle-shaped. For working out, a muzzle-shaped mask is probably a better fit, because you won't run the risk of your mask moving and shifting a pleat under your nose, which can make it more difficult to breathe.
The last aspect to think about is the ear pieces. You don't want to work out with a mask that has ties. Those come loose way too easily. Youand ones that aren't too tight or too loose. This may take some adjusting on your part to get the right fit, but you'll want your mask to rest securely against your skin, yet not so tight that you're uncomfortable.
We've picked out several masks that fit the bill, but you may need to try a few styles or fabrics before you find the one that works best for you. Remember too to keep an eye on your breathing during workouts, and give your body a break if it needs it. If you're concerned, talk to your doctor about whether it's safe for you to work out this way.
