Walking
« on: June 11, 2010, 05:15:41 am »
Do you walk for exercise?   I LOVE to be outside, so when it is nice my favorite exercise is walking.  Of course I'm not in that great of shape but I do wear a pedometer and shoot for 10,000 steps for the entire day.  Some days I exceed this and some days I fall very short but I do enjoy walking.  It gives me a chance to pray, think and plan my day....... off I go ....

I love to walk.  I don't necessarily do it for exercise it just so happens that I walk a lot.

 ;DGreat subject.  I, too, enjoy walking but do not do it enough.  Began walking this spring, but had sciatic probs and bursitis in my him :'(
But that's clearing up.  I need to get one of those podometers, though.  I live on a big hill and coming back up is a challenge.  We have a couple of great parks with tracks and also a track at the local high school.  Do you guys have a regular time you go, or play it by ear. 8)

I love to walk. I do it a lot on my job, but I also walk for exercise. It is a great way to be outside getting exercise and not be in a gym.

I like to go for walks with my boyfriend, but I don't go walking very often. I should go more.

I take a stop watch with me and walk one half hour everyday except Sunday.  I really enjoy walking and thanks to it I've lost 32 lbs. in 3 months.

walking is good but to be really effective it needs to be a brisk walk

Ilove to walk.  Walking is great for the whole body.  It gets you blood to pumping.

I walked without fail for years and years.  Then I started taking my dog with me, and it turned into more or less a dog walk, and they always stop to sniff and pee, etc.  I need to get back in the habit of walking ALONE.

Let me qualify, I also watch what, when and how much I eat.  I stay away from the processed stuff and the sugary garbage too.  Eating and exercise modification together are really THE dynamic duo.
