Walking - The Great and Easy Exercise

25 May 2008 10:44 PM

I could not agree more, Heather. Walking is so easy to do! I try to get as many steps into my day as possible by parking in the furthest spot in the supermarket parking lot just to get a few more steps in. But lunchtime is the best time for me to get 45-50 minutes of walking. With a good stride, I get a nice amount of aerobic steps for cardio. Plus, I found a great site that really motivates me to walk every day. It's called BeeWell Miles (www.beewellmiles.com). It's got tools that help me calculate how many calories I am burning from my walking, log my meals to know how many calories I am taking in, and an activity meter so I can see how the calories out offset the calories in. It really shows me that walking helps me burn a good amount of calories.
