How to Achieve Better Results
It’s fairly easy – by walking. This is one of those activities that probably won’t hurt any of your muscles. Walking will help losing some extra weight, help toning your muscles and keep your heart healthy. At the same time, it would be beneficial for all parts of your body. A vigorous walk will significantly decrease the potential risk of diabetes mellitus type 2, cardiovascular diseases and even breast cancer. Walking should be planned. Decide your route, distance and speed. Also, keep in mind what you want to achieve. To be fit, many trainers recommend walking for one hour, about a mile per 15 minutes. Be aware that you should walk upright, contract stomach muscles and move your hands to maintain the same rhythm. Sometimes, it might be wise to consult your doctor about the walk. He/she will help you decide the distance and pace of your walking. Sometimes, it may not be exciting to walk. Many people find it boring after a while. You shouldn’t stop doing it because it starts to be a routine. Change the route every week, do some errands while walking, walk your dog or walk and talk with a friend or two. Change of scenery might also help. Take a walk in the countryside, at the beach or in the city park. Enjoy the nature around you, and try walking on the grass. It is a much different feeling to walk on the grass or the sand and you might enjoy it. If you can, try walking at a different part of the day: early morning before work, on your lunch break or after the work. Some people enjoy evening and night walking.Good Advices
