Most people opt for running, strength training or HIIT when they decide to get in shape. They don’t realize that walking can help them lose weight and get fit.
Walking is best exercise for beginners, obese, overly overweight or injured people. Even fit folks should walk every day. Now, it won’t get you ripped, but it'll burn fat and give you lots of other benefits.
This year you don’t need a complex workout routine to attain your ideal weight. Here are surefire ways to walk off excess weight in 2017.
1. Know the Steps You Should Walk Every Day
Walking 2,000 steps a day won’t help transform your body. You need to walk many steps to burn fat. It’s estimated that walking 10,000 steps burns 500 calories. But you need to aim higher – 15,000 to 20,000 thousand steps a day.
Now, don’t walk 20,000 steps the first day. Work your way up by increasing steps every day. Wear a pedometer to easily track your steps.
