my grandpa started walking 2 miles a day when he was 80. now he's 82 and we have no idea where he is
😂😂😂
😂😂
😂😂😂😂
😂🤦♂
He’s in a fugue state
the days where a doctor on tv has to tell you that the most basic human function can save your life... I think i learned that as a baby. Come on guys, go outside...
this is just getting sad
Exactly man! People are getting lazier.
I love this comment. Have you considered running for office?
Unbelievable!
Easier said than done. The American suburbs aren’t pedestrian friendly
For me as a german who lives in Freiburg its crazy to that a 10 min walk is seen as a exercise.dont get me wrong,walking is always better than not. But here i walk like 7000 steps on a normal working day and during the weekend most of the time over 10000.
As a life long New Yorker and non driver, I do A LOT of walking.
It's common sense. Humans been walking since the dawn of time and since the rise of the automobile and highways, not alot of people walk anywhere and that's when the diseases come in.
Literally
Just walked 1.5 hours / 5 miles - and it feels great!
Walking helps improve cardiovascular health by increasing heart rate and circulation, which can reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke + it can enhance the immune system, making our bodies more resilient to illnesses. Walk, walk, walk... everywhere, every time 🚶🏻♂️
Indeed; exercise such as walking requires time out of our hectic schedule , and it is a luxury but we need to find the time to do it.
Im 60 just done a 6 mile power walk .
I have an appointment at UCSF Medical Center September 15th. Being 70 and on a very limited social security budget, I have opted to walk from Cleveland. It is 2460 miles. Walking on average 20 miles a day and resting throughout, it will take me 123 days to the day to arrive punctually.
Such a sad ending to America's very first male exotic dancer (aka Dave 'the knave'). Yes, a third person reference...
Join me, on any leg of my route. I was taught early on, "any publicity is good publicity". And, I'll never refuse a roof for the night.
Through it all, it's been a blast!
I walk every single day and will never stop, i did also switch to Hikes Pinnacle barefoot shoes and what a world of a difference, feet are getting stronger, love it. keep on walking.
In 2021 i went down 3 dress sizes in 6 weeks eating plant-exclusive and walking up to 10 miles every day
Really do we need to be told this.
Sadly yes
always park kinda far away from where you're going. like an eight minute walk.
Excellent. I really love go for walk every single day.
Crazy this is news from the WSJ when walking is the most basic fundamental activity of humans
Doc looks like he could do a bit more walking. Just saying...
Taking daily walks with your partner can be a wonderful habit with numerous benefits:
Daily walking should just be a facet of regular life and not even be a component of "exercise". I mean, yes it's technically exercise.
But ideally you should be walking 1-2hrs daily just to move and then have formal exercise that includes lifting weights at least 2-3x per week and formal cardio for at least 90 min per week.
But instead of weight training which I don't think is very accessible for a lot of people I think we should advocate nutrition and stretching. That is a necessity as we age and that mobility keeps you moving in old age prevents you from aging itself
As long as you take precautions because it can strengthen the bones if you don't maintain then that a mobility keeps you immobile and isolated as you age.
Daily walking is better than no walking.
Think caveman existence because that is what our bodies are fundamentally designed for. In those days we had to chase and kill our food, or grub around in the dirt, climb a tree. We had to wrap up to keep warm and make effort to keep ourselves safe. We walked or ran everywhere whereas today without a car you are a lesser human success.
Why don’t any of these “exerts” ever mention target heart zone?
I respectfully disagree, I don't think weight training is for everyone and I don't think most people like it however I do agree that you encourage it.
But with walking what people neglected stretching and as we age walking is a weight-bearing exercise that strengthens our bones and muscles, especially by prove improving the heart and it's good to follow with nutrition. Of good healthy fats and greens and nutrients found in complex carbohydrates.
So what I'd like to see you do as much good healthy complex carbohydrates and minimize industrialized foods with a walking program for everyone in greening your own neighborhood sidewalks, with DIY template programs.
In addition we all need to stretch it for walking because you can pull your back out, or just that weight-bearing exercise for a long-term can really do a number if you don't stretch your quads and your hands.
But aside from that as you age you need stretching to replenish the fluids in your joints, especially if you're walking long-term you should enjoy that time but you should also be doing stretching yoga or some form of stretching like Tai chi to chair stretching or yoga or even stretching on your kitchen counter because that's a necessity as we age.
People like to engage in the marketing but there's not a lot of common sense. Oftentimes behind some of these marketing issues.
Well I love the pictures here too I'd love to see meadow walkways and other forms of walking through neighborhoods or field or whatever is available to you even greening your own sidewalks and welding them so that every sidewalk turns into a walk path.
Every disposable place or partition that is empty should be filled with wild and grains and wildflowers or wild grasses.
There should be accessibility to marketplaces with walk paths as well as local small farmers vendors or shopping districts within walking distance as well or riding.
What is walking
Green your own neighborhood sidewalks 🌿
Walking barefoot or with Grounding shoes is the healthiest way to reduce inflammation.

You must love Jehovah your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. You must love your neighbor as yourself. Jesus the anointed is Lord! Repent and be baptized and believe the Gospel.
i love it thank you brother
Learn about Islam and you see how simple to understand: only one God and many prophets throughout the history of mankind. And you as a person is accountable for your action. No trinity, no multiple gods, no someone died for your sins. When you commit a sin, your are responsible for the consequences. You can ask God for forgiveness. He may or may not forgive you. If the sin you committed was against a human being, God will not forgive you until that person who you did wrong to forgives you. This is simply Islam. You pray 5 times a day, you pay charity to the poor, you fast during day time one month a year. And you do pilgrimage one time in your life if you can afford it. Learn about Islam and you will find peace. The word Islam in Arabic is peace and submission to the will of God. God bless you
Walking is a great hobbie
More misinformation than information.
