Burn more calories than you eat or drink to lose weight. Once the diet part is planned, get to the exercise. This means 30 minutes a day seven days a week of aerobic work. It can be running on a treadmill, swimming, or even walking to lose weight. Walking is a low impact way to meet the exercise goal. Here are some walking tips.
Forget exercising only three or five days a week, aerobic exercise is something you need to do every day forever.
Once the walking is established do some other activities to increase your physical output. This can include simple things like raking leaves instead of blowing them, fun things like playing tag with your children, as well as other every day habits such as parking in the furthest space from the store rather than the closest.
After getting accustomed to walking that 30 minutes every day, make some adjustments by adding intervals. Intervals are short bursts of increased activity sprinkled into a normal routine. Start out by running for 30 seconds every 10 minutes of the walk. Gradually increase this to a one minute run every five minutes, which goes like this. You walk for the first four minutes, then run for the fifth, then walk the next four minutes, run the next minute, and so on for the entire 30 minutes. Keep in mind that a run is not a jog, it’s faster, it’s a sprint. So if you have to work up to run with jog at first. After a short period of walking run, then walk again, then go back to running. Start out running once or twice in a 30 minute walk, then up it to more often until you’re walking 4 minutes then running 1 minute It’s not that hard.
Walking to lose weight is healthy, no doubt. But it’s also a terrific way to get around the neighborhood, meet neighbors, and see things you probably miss while driving around everywhere you go. If it gets boring you can ask a spouse or family member to exercise with you. Make it a family affair, or get the whole neighborhood involved.
