My Mom’s story: When I was a teen-ager my mother and I used to

exercise together. After some years, however, my Mom’s priorities

changed and she found herself about 30 pounds overweight. Once she

made the commitment to make a change, she used the combination of a

daily walk and a sensible diet. The result? She lost one pound per

week for 30 weeks and is back to her thin self once again!

A couple things before you begin. Most importantly, before you begin

any fitness program, check with your doctor. Also, to make your

walking workout a positive experience, invest in proper footwear.

You will want to have flexible sneakers, walking shoes or

(what I usually recommend) “cross-trainers.” They are available

at all sporting goods stores: make the investment, you’ll be glad

you did!

And speaking of proper form, most people also do not realize that

there is a “way” to walk for the greatest benefit. It’s easy:

first, strike the ground with your heel, rolling your foot to your

toe. Then, push off with your toe. Repeat this with your opposite

foot.

That's all there is to it! With a little effort and your new

flexible shoes "made for walkin'" you are well on your way to

walking yourself fit!
