How to lose weight by walking

　　1. Slow down your pace to increase speed:

　　Many people are accustomed to increasing the pace when walking faster. In fact, this is the wrong method. You should slightly shorten the distance of each step at this time.

　　2. Change a place to walk:

　　Did you know? Different road surfaces can also give different stimulation to the body! If you are used to walking on asphalt roads or treadmills, you might as well change to the beach, grass, or even gravel roads. Experts say this can allow you to burn an extra 60 calories per hour.

　　3. Cross training is more efficient:

　　Is there any way you can burn more calories in the same amount of time while walking without burning yourself out? The answer is? Add in running, or even sprinting. For example, every 5 minutes of walking at the original pace can be interspersed with 1 minute of jogging. If you have been doing it for several consecutive weeks and you already feel very relaxed, you can change to interspersed sprints for 30-60 seconds.

　　4. The walking speed must reach level 7:

　　If you walk slowly along the way, like walking, the effect will be disappointing! Experts say that you must control your walking speed to a certain level. The degree of physical relaxation or fatigue is divided into 10 levels. If you lie in bed and rest still, it is level "1", and level "10" is exhaustion. The walking speed should be maintained at level "7". The feeling is... your breathing has accelerated and you have begun to sweat, but you can still talk without being out of breath.

　　5 Add arm swing:

　　In order to exercise the whole body in a balanced manner, you should use both hands and feet when walking, but you do not need to swing your arms hard. Your elbows should be bent at about 90 degrees. The swing range of your arms should be from 15-20 centimeters behind your hips and forward to the height of your chest.
