Walking for Health and Fitness

The easiest way to get in shape and stay in shape!

Introduction

I have good news for you: good health and fitness just became easy!

I promise you that a month from now, you will feel better than you do today!

There are many ways to get yourself in shape, but walking will give you the most bang for the buck!

Youve just stepped into your home; a healthy glow lights up your face as youve just walked for 30 minutes straight. The scent of the crisp fresh morning air follows you into your living room. You feel reinvigorated and more alive than you have in years; Who knew walking could have such a powerful impact on your life?

If its to be, its up to me.

Dr. Dennis Waitley

Walking is gentle on the body and soothing to the mind. Walking allows you to experience the physical sensation of movement and the mind-expanding feeling that comes through physical activity.

Why the Sedentary Lifestyle is Dangerous

By definition, the sedentary lifestyle is characterized by spending a majority of your time sitting or lying down with little or no exercise. Some experts consider this as dangerous as smoking.

We sit when we eat breakfast, sit for the morning commute, most of us sit at a desk all day, sit for lunch, sit for the evening commute, sit for dinner, sit for television or computer time.

Then, we end our day by lying down and sleeping for 6 to 8 hours every evening.

What You Can Do to Improve Your Health and Fitness

Walking is by far the easiest and most effective way to take care of your health. A daily 30-minute walk will improve your cardiovascular health, reduce excess body fat, strengthen bones, and enhance muscle performance!

The doctor glances at your medical chart; looks up at you, then quickly back to the chart. How can this be? I dont know what youre doing but the results are amazing. Lets cut your blood pressure medication in half and retest you in 6 months!

For people who may be predisposed to certain health conditions, walking can reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, back issues, Alzheimers disease, and other dementias.

Walking is also an antidote for being overweight and obese. These conditions are known to increase blood pressure, and high blood pressure is the leading cause of strokes.

Excess weight also increases your chances of developing other problems linked to strokes, including high cholesterol, high blood sugar, and heart disease.

Obesity is one of the biggest drivers of preventable chronic diseases and healthcare costs in the United States. Currently, estimates for these costs range from $147 billion to nearly $210 billion per year.

In addition, obesity is associated with job absenteeism, costing approximately $4.3 billion annually.

Obesity causes lower productivity while at work, costing employers $506 per obese worker per year.

An Investment in Yourself!

Doctors visits, prescriptions, lost time at work and the lessened quality of life due to preventable illness all add up to a significant sum of time and money.

As you go through this program, look at your time and effort as an investment in yourself.

Let me repeat that: As you go through this program, look at your time and effort as an investment in yourself!

What could be better than that? Your health, happiness, and life depend on it!
