While listening to “Walking is Fitness” podcast by Dave, he talked about 9 ways to burn more calories during walking. One of the things I do, is listen to a podcast or a book, while doing my daily walks. So here is my summary of Dave’s podcast!
What does this have to do with Chair Yoga Fitness? Walking is a great complement to one’s fitness. Some folks are recovering from surgery, or may have had a lapse in health, and need to start their fitness journey seated on the chair. I’ll often offer an indoor ease to do walking workout with my participants after our Chair Yoga Fitness sessions.
After my heart surgery last year, my stamina was at an all time low. #7 on this list, helped me in another way in that walking with hiking sticks or poles, helped me with my balance. Was moving at a much slower pace after my Wolf Mini Maze, to get rid of my Afib. Walking with walking poles/sticks, helped me get outdoors, move my upper body more, and helped me breathe deeper into my lungs.
Now that I’ve seen this on Dave’s podcast, I might just get out my sticks again to burn a few more calories!
Do you do any of these methods to burn more calories while walking?
