Many people suffer from health problems associated with being overweight. There are many diets, but after such diets the weight usually returns to its original value. Achieving lasting results is not easy, but there is a way to achieve that.
Weight Loss
You can really lose weight, even in a way that you won’t pay much attention to the process of losing weight. It does not involve drastic diets or suffering in the gym.
The trick is to walk more steps each day than you have so far.
Nowadays life is very rushed and many people use means of transport instead of walking, both on the streets and inside buildings, for example the elevator instead of the stairs.
How many steps are needed for weight loss?
If you go for a walk and maintain a pace of 6 km/h, you can burn 400 calories in 1 hour.
To burn 100 calories you need to take 2000 steps, which is approximately a distance of 1.5 km.
If you plan your walking schedule, you can lose several kilograms per week, but ideally plan your program so that your body loses 0.5 kilograms each week.
This will help you avoid the yo-yo effect and health problems.
The ideal choice is to plan your day so that you walk 10 000 steps each day. That corresponds approximately to a distance of 7.5 km, which you can walk in 1.5 hours.
How to walk 7.5 kilometers a day?
- walk to and from work
- take the children to school on foot
- use the stairs instead of the elevator
- don’t use taxis and public transport around town, but walk
- always park your car farther from your destination and walk the rest
Conclusion
Try to include walking in your everyday life and you will see that losing weight will be easy and lasting. You will give your body a pleasant activity, so you will feel comfortable, be happy with your new figure and protect yourself from health problems.
