How to make the most of your walk...

Walking is very good for you! There are some things we can do to get the most out of our walks:

Walk instead of talk. If you walk with a friend, that is a wonderful thing! Just be sure you focus on your pace and not the topic of conversations. Keep up a quick walking pace as you walk, you will burn more calories!

Change up the program. You may have a certain place you always walk or a certain way you walk around the neighborhood. Change it up! This will work new muscles and may burn more calories.

Never forget to stretch. Stretching is very important. If you do not stretch you could get muscle cramps.

Drink your water. Stay hydrated before, during and after your walk. Water makes the muscles work better!

Or... Try a bike ride!
