IF YOU DO ONE THING THIS WEEKEND....
Global Greetings - so if you had to push me to call out just one stretch to enhance how you feel and improve your walking - it's this one! Just quick - prob. 2 minutes in total ( of course feel free to luxuriate in any of the positions for longer)
You can use a park bench, field fence, kitchen sideboard car bonnet, desk top as your stretching assistant. This is super good for any level of mobility, stretching, fitness ability.
Gone on give it a go, share and tag a friend below if you think they'd feel the 😍 too! It really can give you a quick fix of feeling good and Hello to your body.😉

HOW CAN I CHECK I"M WALKING FAST ENOUGH?

More and more research is indicating that HOW we walk, WHERE we walk and the PACE we walk is more important for physiological improvements than our daily step count alone.

In fact recent research from University of Leicester cited in International Journal of Obesity 2021, reported slow walkers were
* 4 X more likely to die of Covid 19 than fast walkers
* 2 X risk of contracting a severe version of the virus

In this short video I discuss what is brisk walking and share 3 simple tips to help you check you are walking at a brisk enough pace to get meaningful results for your walking efforts. Take a watch now! and tag a friend if you think this will help them.

Whether walking on your commute to work, getting up from your desk throughout the day; a few tweaks can optimise your walking efforts and the WalkActive System has been proven to increase walking speed by up to 24%

So enjoy the Olympic Race Walking but don't panic - you don't need to walk at huge fast paces, like these amazing athletes to have a positive impact. However as the WalkActive Coach I am passionate about helping you optimise your walking efforts and I'm on a mission to help individuals improve their physical, mental & cognitive wellness through walking, so you look + feel + perform better with every step you take.

Love to hear your thoughts if you find this useful!
