Walk your way to a healthier you
Walking is one of the best all-round forms of exercise we can have, it is a way of keeping fit and losing weight that doesn’t cost anything but the rewards we can reap from it are endless. To lose weight we must burn off more calories than we eat and walking is one form of exercise that can help us to do this.
As a general guide a person weighing 60kg would burn off 150 calories if they were to walk at a brisk pace for a half hour. A heavier person would burn off more calories per half hour and a lighter one less calories.
