An interesting article on walking. Walking is a natural activity that we

do everyday and if you have that 30 minutes a day for a few days a week,

before starting any exercise routine. Wishing you great health!

 

When it comes to exercise we each determine what we can or cannot do,

and how hard we push ourselves. Some follow the all-or-nothing

principle, believing that if exercise is good for you it has to be hard,

aerobic exercise and bone mineral density suggests that walking just 30

minutes per day a few days a week is enough to moderately increase

found that those who walked 30 minutes a day had a significantly lower

Walk every day possible, and DRESS for it. Carry all sorts of cold and hot weather gear in your car that you can reach for. Always carry a cell phone, Always have gloves. Carry in your car items such as: Ear muffs, sunglasses, raincoat, extra gloves, muffler, bottled water, change of shoes. Dont pay any attention to speed or heartbeat, just....walk and enjoy it. Try to eventually walk at least 2 miles a day: one mile out and one mile back to car. Notice everything around you. In time you may carry a knife, a whistle, a stick. If you see someone suspicious, take out your cell phone and turn it on, put it to your ear and begin talking (at least) as IF you are carrying on a conversation. In any sort of warm weather, suggest you carry a bottle of water.
