WEEK THREE: Walk a Little Longer
Goal: Time to kick it up a notch! This week, we increase the duration of our walks and stick with the strength training program. Your goal is to up your walking time to 45 minutes a day and continue to aim for at least six workouts a week.
The same rules still apply: You don't have to do your entire walk in one workout. It's OK to split it up into two or even three walks in a day. For instance, you can do a quick 15 minutes on the treadmill first thing in the morning - a great way to rev up the start of your day. You can then do a quick spin around the neighbourhood during your lunch break and finish up with another 15 minutes to walk off your dinner.
Don't forget to practise good technique as you walk - always check your form. Good walking form will serve you well by giving you the stamina you need to go the extra distance. Also, be sure to keep track of your walking time.
