Did you know that walking to lose weight quickly is the most popular way to exercise for weight loss? The reason is that almost everyone can walk. There are no barriers to entry and we all know how to walk, right?
Take a moment to read a couple of great ways to increase the calories you burn and lose weight much faster with a walking routine.
Walking to lose weight quickly
We don’t want to have a slow weight loss, right? We want those kilos to be gone yesterday!
So here are some ways to make your walking help you lose weight faster:
1) walking with exercise poles
These poles go by many names. Trekking sticks. Exercise-poles. Fitness sticks. Exerstriders. And more. The bottom line is that when you walk in them, you will burn more calories than if you didn’t use them because they engage more muscles in your body and more muscle activity leads to more fat loss and a slimmer, slimmer appearance.
2) walk longer
If you are really trying to lose weight quickly, take longer walks. If you walk longer than 60 minutes, you will not only burn more calories during your walk, but it will also have a post-burn effect. This means that you have stoked the fire in your body and will continue to burn calories for many hours after you finish your walk.
So now you have a couple of ways to help you start walking to lose weight fast. Get off the couch, lace up your walking shoes, and have fun!
