We all know how to walk, but what Nina Barough, knows and shares
here is how to get the best out of your body when walking for
fitness, weight loss, if you're looking to improve your performance
or maybe walk a long distance for charity.
Walking is a low-impact workout that will increase your fitness,
strength, stamina, aid weight loss, tone, shape and improve your
body's posture, but best of all it’s easy and fun to do without
being expensive.
Power walking is the name of the game when you want to walk and
really see the difference. But don’t panic, Walking For Fitness,
won’t turn you into Harold Bishop, just simply illustrate and
explain the technique (no silly headband or Lycra required).
But Walking For Fitness isn’t just about power walking, we’re
shown how, why and when to stretch, how to look after our feet, buy
the right shoes for your feet (I found that really useful), walking
on different surfaces, in different climates is talked about and
lots more.
All of this is brilliant, practical advice, but it’s not left
there, oh no. This book provides training programmes for all of us
whether you’re a beginner, walking for weight loss, or want to walk
a marathon, there is a training programme in here for you. You even
get a walking log to track your progress.
So don’t let anything hold you back, power your way to a fitter,
stronger, maybe lighter, you and get there by walking.
