Many people experience problems with their appearance and body weight. There are several quick and simple diets as well, but not all of them work, and nearly none provide long-lasting effects.
The ideal way to reduce weight would probably be covertly.
You simply need to walk more to make this possible. Here is the recommended daily amount of walking for weight loss.
The walking distance and body weight are two variables that affect how many calories are burned.
Apparently, we burn 400 calories per hour while walking with an average speed of four miles per hour. Therefore, in order to burn 100 calories, you need to make 2,000 steps or 1 mile of walking. That is, you need to burn 3,500 calories to lose a pound.
The healthiest weight loss is to lose a pound a week, so you should burn 500 calories daily, or you should walk 5 miles.
This looks easy, doesn’t it? And if you want some help, we have several additional tips:
- Walk to your workplace and home
- walk your children to school
- Use the stairs instead of the elevator
- Walk to the station, and do not use a bus or a taxi
- Always park the car a bit further than your destination, and walk to get there
- During the first week, walk for 15 to 20 minutes to adjust to your new routine, and then gradually increase the time to an hour a day
Therefore, make the needed steps, and you will love your new body!
