Walking is a very low impact exercise, and one that most people can do easily. Just pick your feet up and get moving! Walking burns more calories as jogging but is easier on most of your joints. You choose your walking speed, put on your best tennis shoes and just pick up and go there is nothing as simple. Walking increases your metabolism, its a fact that as you age your metabolism slows down, so give your old metabolism a kick in the behind and revive it. Walking reduces your appetite, its true! It has a slight suppressing effect on when your hungry and when your not hungry. If you find your appetite increases it’s more likely that your just thirsty, so grab some water and drink up. My suggestion is to walk five days a week for at least 45 minutes a day, this will assure you stay in the fat burning zone and your not over working yet working at a decent pace to have fat burning potential. In six weeks you will notice you are firmer, more in shape and most important feel better. Self esteem matters, and if walking can help give you a boost of confidence than go for it. My favorite place to walk is the park, there is a real nice trail there so find your spot and keep up the routine. You can do  it!
