There is a saying that “walking is man’s best medicine,” and there is no doubt in this statement. Walking is a simple exercise that anyone can start easily without spending much money on. If you were leading a sedentary lifestyle, facing health issues because of an unhealthy lifestyle, and wondering what kind of exercise is best for you, then you could start with simple walking.
To start a walking regimen, it does not require much investment; it may cost you just a pair of good walking shoes and a comfortable dress, and you are ready to start your new fitness regimen.
All kinds of walking are beneficial for you; if you are moving, it means you are burning calories. You should walk at a sustainable speed and duration, which will change for each individual.
Walking at a moderate pace of 4-5 kmph is considered moderate, and most people will burn fat in this range. Accelerating to 4.5 or 6 kmph is more intense, raising your heart rate and burning more fat. When walking for health reasons or for reasons other than weight loss, speed is less important.
Those who want to lose weight or reduce their waist size must follow a diet in addition to walking. Walking, diet, and medication, according to doctors, will produce quick results in patients with high blood glucose levels. Within three months, they will level off their HbA1C level, and if they continue with this, they can achieve a healthy level of HbA1C.
A quick stroll after eating may also help to reduce blood sugar levels. A quick post-meal (particularly evening) stroll might also assist with cravings for dessert or late-night eating.
Walking protects your joints by lubricating and strengthening the muscles that surround them. Walk uphill or use the stairs to gain strength. Walking can also help with pain relief, especially for people who suffer from arthritis.
You could find that taking a walk instead of drinking coffee would provide you with extra energy. Walking enhances the flow of oxygen throughout the body. Epinephrine and norepinephrine levels rise as well, which boosts energy levels.
Walking is an excellent way to manage one’s mental health, stress, anxiety, and depression. Walking on a regular basis may also improve self-esteem and creativity.
If you are planning to start a new fitness regimen, then walking could be ideal for you.
