      Walking daily is a very good habit. It helps your body stay in healthy state. You carry your own body weight when you walk. This is known as weight-bearing exercise.

      Informative topic @yamcy

      I went ahead to study the benefits of weight bearing excercises and ce up with the following information:

      “Weight-bearing exercise is essential for building and maintaining healthy bones and includes any activity you do that works your muscles and bones against gravity.”

      Brisk walking is considered safer than jogging for people who may have heart conditions.

      Walking helps to improve management of conditions such as hypertension (high blood pressure), high cholesterol, joint and muscular pain or stiffness, and diabetes.

      [quote quote=117348]Walking help to improved management of conditions such as hypertension (high blood pressure), high cholesterol, joint and muscular pain or stiffness, and diabetes.[/quote] You are right. Brisk (fast) walking is one of the best ways to slim down

      Yes exactly, it also reduces body fat, and reduces risk of ❤️ disease and stroke.
