Walking as Exercise

Walking as exercise is a gentle, accessible activity that involves moving at a steady pace on foot, promoting physical health without requiring special skills or equipment. It helps improve cardiovascular fitness, strengthens muscles, enhances mood, and supports weight management. Consistent walking, such as 30 minutes daily, can reduce risks of heart disease, diabetes, and depression. It’s suitable for all ages and fitness levels, easily integrated into daily routines—whether commuting, leisure, or outdoor recreation—making it an effective and sustainable way to maintain overall well-being.
