Answer 2

Walking helps you shift your attitude toward health, fitness, and weight loss.Take a year to move through the following 3 steps to make gradual but positive lifestyle changes.

Walk : weight loss
1. Just get out there and walk a little. Build a daily habit. Let’s call it being active. Don’t think about changing clothes, going to a gym, jumping around for an hour, or changing clothes.
Just take a short walk to the bus stop, the corner mailbox, or the convenience store for a gallon of milk. Find ways to add an extra 2,000 steps into your daily routine.

Buy and wear a pedometer to measure your steps. A 20-minute walk is about 120 steps per minute, or 2,400 steps. You can break that up into 3 walks of 800 steps each.

How far you walk or how fast you walk aren't important. It’s simply walking in short spurts most days of the week. Be careful. Once you start paying attention to walking, you’ll want to walk farther.

Answer 3

Aerobic exercise is the best for burning off the weight. But you only start real aerobic exercise a half hour into your speed walking or running. So, if it was a choice between jogging for 30 minutes or speed walking for an hour you should do the speed walking for an hour. Oh, and eat after working out. That way your body is burning reserves (fat) instead of what you just ate.

Answer 4

Before you even think about exercise, make adjustments to calorie intake as well as the type of food you eat and the times that you eat. Eating properly alone will show results.

Beyond that - I generally shoot for 45 min a day of some cardio activity. Bear in mind though - if you're out of shape or haven't been exercising, start slow or you're liable to injure yourself. For many people, a good hard walk will do far more good than a run they aren't in shape for.
