Do the rules, for example, treat vaping as essentially the same as…

The New Year means many things to many people; new beginnings, new hope, new habits… or perhaps just a return to the daily grind.

Whether you are a long-time fitness enthusiast or you have only just got into a workout routine recently, the winter months may present you with certain challenges and worries. One of these might be the task of ensuring you both feel and are safe while out exercising.
