Walking For Weight Loss
Walking For Weight Loss will give you a well tuned body that maintains your optimum weight. A badly tuned body will be over weight and walking will ’switch on’ your metabolism and other weight management systems so that you can lose that weight and not put it on again.
If you are serious, you need to be Walking For Weight Loss a little each day as it will give your body a tune up with minimum stress and effort. Walking is known to speed up your metabolism well, especially if it is done first thing in the morning.
A slow start to the day will have your body systems go slow all day and this is how you set up weight gain. A short, 200 yard, walk before breakfast will kick start your body systems and set you up for weight loss and good weight management.
Start your morning ritual with a stroll
I am not talking about speed walking or marathons here. After you have had your 2 glasses of water and washed your face, take a stroll down to the corner and back – change your pace a bit as you go. Do this as part of your new morning ritual – just a couple of hundred yards or so.
Imagine you are living in a cave and you wake up and go to the stream to have a drink and wash your face, then start your day.
Make walking fun
Walking and weight loss go together so, later in the day, walk for 20 – 40 minutes and make it fun. Walk with a friend or a walking group. Do a walk for charity. Try a different route and explore other people’s gardens over the fence. Walk your dog or offer to walk someone else’s dog. Listen to music or a lesson on your iPod.
Vary the pace. Walk slowly and then go fast to the next tree. Take a deep breath every now and again – really expand your lungs – but walk so you can still hold a conversation. Straighten your back and stick out your chest. Take a few giant steps and then some tiny ones. Dance around a tree.
Walking is for everyone
My old Dad loved to walk and was often asked for his Over 60’s Card to prove his age – well into his 80’s.
Start tomorrow off with a glass or 2 of water and a stroll to the corner. Add in a 20 minute walk a couple of times this week. Brush off your walking shoes now and start Walking For Weight Loss this week and the difference will soon show.
