Just Beginning Walking-Need Advice!
Hi there,
I started walking about 8 months ago then stopped after 3 months. Then 3 weeks ago I started to walk again. I walk in a running field 6 rounds in about 20 minutes. I am trying to do it everyday but because of my job schedule I can only walk every other day. My purpose of walking is to reduce my tummy fat and weight. What is the best way to walk? After breakfast or before? Do I have to increase the distance every day or every week? I will appreciate your great advise. Thanks a lot! |

When I park at a supermarket, instead of looking for a place near the door, I look for a place where I'm not likely to have anyone parked close when I back out, or a place where I can pull in from the back and not have to back the car. Then I always return the cart to the store instead of the corral. I probably took a two-mile walk yesterday: I had a check to cash, and walked to the bank. Going out of my way to use staircases helps some. -- Joy Beeson joy beeson at comcast dot net http://wlweather.net/PAGEJOY/ |
My suggestion to you would be a short daily walk before breakfast (you don't want to mess up with your stomach after breakfast obviously). It doesn't have to be a long walk that could end up discourage you to maintain this exercise habit.
Otherwise, as Beeson did propose, you can take advantage of short walks combined within a few days. |

See if you can find a walking club near you. AVA.org has a list of clubs nation wide and Meetups sometimes has walking groups. If you are going to make walking a lifetime habit you need to get off the track and see interesting things and meet interesting people.

Since then, I am walking almost an hour daily (when the weather is fine) and I haven't had an episode. |
