WALKING


it sounds unbelievable but nowadays people are walking less frequently mostly because they prefer to take the "ojek" or motorcycle even to go to the nearest stall .walking actually improves the condition of your heart and lungs and also works the muscles of the lower body. walking may also improve bone density but is considered a low impact sport because walking puts less strain on the joints compared to other forms of exercise .
some people exercise by power walking . it's kind of walk where you walk so fast you almost break into a run . the funny thing is that power walking actually burns more calories compared to running at the same pace .

other walking exercises you can do are :

1. using the stairs instead of the lift
if you have to go to the top level , you can start by taking 2-3 flights of stairs and increasing it every week

2. taking a walk during lunch hours
walking for half an hour after a meal can cut the amount of fat you have stored because it's used for exercising
