3 Rules of Walking For Weight Loss

Patient: "Sir, I want to loose weight"

Doctor: "How much weight do you want to loose?"

Patient: "Around 1 pounds in one week"

Doctor: "What is your present diet routine?"

Patient explained this in detail

Doctor: "Not very Difficult, Follow the following diet plan and make walk the daily routine"
(handing over a paper to the patient)

Now on reaching home the patient puts his whole attention towards the understanding and implementing of that diet plan. Yes he will also go for the walk.

But did the patient had any extra instruction from the doctor about the walk except the one and only to do it daily. The doctor sometimes do not even bother to tell the time frame. Only diet without proper walk will not be of any use but walk is not as simple as it appears from its name.

Some of the housewives have to walk all the day at home but still they are very fat. Why they are not very thin and lean? The answer is that they are not following any walk plan.

Without going into the much more details, I'm going to put here very easy and simple rules for you to follow

RULE#1

There should be two equal sessions per day from 20 to 35 minutes. That means that you have to go for the walk for twenty minutes in the morning and for the same twenty minute in the evening

RULE #2

Walk fast but at the speed with which you are comfortable. Your heart beat should pace up only a bit. You should not walk too fast to feel uncomfortable or become breathless.

Rule # 3

You have to do it 7 days a week. YES! You have to do it on Sundays as well.

By following the above mentioned rules of walking you would be in a better position to loose weight at a faster pace.
