Walking can be done anywhere and requires no special equipment other than a comfortable pair of shoes. You can increase or decrease the intensity of your exercise program by changing your length, pace, time, weight or resistance. Vary your exercise activity and environment. Find a variety of places to walk or jog, purchase a piece of exercise machinery to use during inclimate weather, rollerblade, take your family and dog with you, take a yoga class or ride a bike. Remember to take deep breaths often while you are exercising.
Air is the primary food of both the mind and body.
Round out your fitness program. Balance it with stretching or yoga postures, muscle toning or weight training, and aerobic exercise. Exercise your whole body. Incorporate more activity into your life so that you get more exercise in your daily routine. Take the stairs rather than the elevator, park your car far from the building entrance, walk rather than drive, or use your lunch hour to go for an invigorating walk.
