Fitness walking is a type of exercise where one is walking regularly for the purposes of increasing physical fitness and/or encouraging weight loss. It is also sometimes referred to as power walking, speed walking, or aerobic walking. Fitness walking is an excellent activity because it can be done by virtually anyone, regardless of their existing physical fitness level. In addition, it puts less impact on the body than running, but walkers who maintain a brisk pace for a set period of time burn a similar amount of calories as joggers.
To begin a new fitness walking workout program, it is recommended to start slowly. Begin by walking for approximately ten minutes per day at a slightly faster pace than normal walking speed. Be sure to have comfortable, supportive sneakers on, along with comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing. Reflector strips should be added to the clothes if walking at night or along a street. Practice good posture while walking: the back should be straight, shoulders down, and abdominal muscles tightened.
