- 3 Walking Mistakes You're Making That Are Causing You To PLATEAU [walking to lose weight]
A few months ago, I came out with a video called walking is better than running. This video did REMARKABLY well and at this point in time is my most watched video. I think that's because intuitively and from experience, we have seen that running doesn't necessarily lead to weight loss. As a result of the walking vs. running video, a ton of AENpeeps have started to incorporate walking. In today's video, I'm sharing 3 common walking mistakes that are causing you to plateau with your weight loss goals.

I started a weight loss walking diet. Im now doing 20k steps a day and ive lost 20 pounds in 7 weeks. Feeling brilliant.
@Marilyn Millions just walk and ate better food
@Marilyn Millions not to many hills but walking at a good pace
🙌🏽🤗
Ppp
Holy crap! Teach me oh wise one!
I’m going on 100walks without weighing myself! I’m almost at 50 walks and I’m down from a 3X to a XL! In 2 months! 🎉💜
Woot woooooot! 👏🙌
Congratulations!!!🎉🎊
Well done 😘🇦🇺
Congrats!!
Well done!!!!
I started walking about 2,000 steps per day, during the pandemic, in May. I tweaked my diet for amount, but did not cut out any food. I gradually moved to 10,000 steps, at home Costco, Target and any place that had long aisles. I wore a double mask. I started out at 212 lbs. and I now weigh 156 lbs. (a loss of about 56lbs.) I am 77 years old and I feel just wonderful. Next week, I will start to move toward that 15,000 steps.)
This is awesome!! Great job 😁😁
That's amazing! How is it going?
That’s awesome!! Congratulations on getting healthy 🎉
I just came home from walking at Costco. I did not get up to the 15,000 steps that I mentioned, but I do 10,000-12,000 each day, and I try to do some strengthening exercises. It is one year from this post and I now weigh 129 lbs. I am 79 1/2 and I have boundless energy. I do my own cooking, cleaning, shopping, etc. I feel very blessed. Thank you for inquiring.
“I wore a double mask” 🤡🤡🤡🤣
A little summary:
1. 10k steps or more per day ☺️ the more you walk, the better
-> Challenge yourself each week (even if it’s only 500 steps). Try to push yourself to get to 15k steps a day
2. Even if you are getting your steps, you don’t spread it enough. A long period of time of sitting = bad. 5-10min walks scattered around the day is good
3. Only walking on treadmill = not the best option. Walking outside is better. At least 15 mins, so it minimises cortisol levels.
Loved this video btw! ✨
Thanks 😇👍

I wish I had checked the comments first
@Silviu Florin I have a cell phone app that counts my steps and gives me a daily and weekly graph of my steps.
@Silviu Florin The THIN OCD people
I walk four to five miles at least five days a week. I'm 70,
and I have the cardio vascular system of a 30 year old.
Susan, don't you think the 30 year old would like their cardio vascular system back why did you take it in the first place?
@@diffened 😂😂😂
Congratulations my sister has been working and her job was running about cleaning house and the faster she finished the more she made .she is 80 years old and call to say she walked 20,000 step's that one day I am pretty proud of her I am 65 I am not a in a competition and she's always been in competition anything you can do I can do better and that is my sister.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Fantastic!
@@thomasbakke6825 The best person to be in competition with is yourself.
I don't dig super deep in the comments, but I never seem to see people talking about being disabled or having chronic illness. There are days when getting out of bed and taking a shower feel like the best I can possibly do. I aim for about 3000 steps per day at this point and am thrilled if I get 3500. Is there anyone else out there dealing with chronic pain and fatigue that makes 10k steps seem impossible on the regular? On my great days I am getting upward of 5-6k steps and those are the BEST days of my current life. 10k... I miss the person who used to get that and more. I mourn her almost daily.
Same. Sending spoons
@@Vanessasvanitychannel Thank you for seeing me. It helps my heart to be seen, to be heard. The way life is sometimes, I feel invisible and irrelevant. I see you too. And while I haven't any spoons to share at this time, I could lend you my slotted sporks, but beware, those things are entirely useless. Again, thank you. I needed to see this today.
@@nicischmidt7572Jesus sees you and loves you! ❤😊
Become hard, walk in all weather except where real danger exists.
Get out in the rain. Mild snow. Wrap up and get moving in the freezing cold. Don't let the fear in your mind hold you back.
Yes I can!
Ha walking to and from work which is a 4miles round trip with 8plus hours as a waitress at a restaurant over 3floors with no time for breaks I often hit 30 000 steps 😂😬
Madeline Clode wowwww that’s impressive!!
Legs of steel!!! WOW!!
I would have thought it would be a higher number.
Your legs must be amazing.
@@ritazita1111 for the record, 30k steps = .8Km per 1k steps = 24km, or 15 miles a day. That's insane lmao.
so I'm not even walking properly, nice
Mannn 🤣
I feel ya... 🙄
😂
Hahahah
Stop watching shite 😂😂😂
Been walking since last two months..started from 6k to now 22k steps..that covers 15kms. And i am already seeing amazing results. I never weigh myself but the inch loss is so visible. Toned legs, toned stomach. I have come down a dress size..
My New Years resolution for 2020 is to walk at least 10000 steps a day. It’s been 8 days and I lost 3 inches from around my waist!
Congrats!!!!
Did you lose weight from your thighs?
I feel good too. Walking 15k every day. Stopped gymming for a while.
Congratulations and well done!
I have been walking 10,000 steps for 9 days and have lost 2.5 inches from my waist and an inch and a half from my thighs. It works whoo Hoo!
I’m trying to lose my fupa do you think walking will help ????
Eat low calorie dense foods and started walking, i started 55 days ago, 7 kgs/15.4 lbs lost. Went from 8k to around15k steps. Some days i do a bodyweight workout or rope skipping if i feel like it. Eat low calorie dense foods that you can eat everyday, find the foods that you can eat the rest of your life
Low calorie foods very important, very difficult to out work a bad diet.
I love that you get to the point in your videos. You don’t use any fillers and sound so educated and nice. I appreciate you!
I been doing 7 to 8 10min walks each day while at work. Then a 30min walk when i get home. Been hitting about 13-15k each day and lost 14 pounds in 4 weeks.
Since I started walking 3 miles a day, I’ve made friends in my neighborhood with all the dogs and their families during this pandemic summer of 2020. I walk the distance in an hour.
..it's all anyone really needs..
Thank you so much Autumn! I used to run when I was younger. As I’ve gotten older I’ve realized I can’t do high impact exercises any longer, this has been discouraging since I loved it so much. Your video encouraged me so much that I went for a 30 minute walk today and did some weights. Thank you!
My quarantine workout: pacing around the house on 30 minute intervals to get all my steps in
my.hideaway lol me too I walk around the house everyday and 5 minutes feels like an hour
Wow!! It takes you 30 minutes to walk around your house?!? :-)
Doug Rogillio No, I go back and forth from one end to the other multiple times
Same
Guys just do Leslie Lansome videos - Walking at home . I sweat like a pig 🐷
You nailed it @AutumnBates! The part of most interest to me was your understanding of cortisol. I've been suggesting to my clients with anxiety for many years to walk for the reasons you discussed! Great intro to your work...keep going!
You have inspired me and I am now walking 30+ min on my lunch break everyday! And walks on the weekends! I used to have the mind frame of "I work out so walk shmalk!" But I find it very relaxing and stress relieving. Already seeing my lower belly getting flatter! ❤
I love this, I applied it to my life last month replacing biking etc and I'm looking leaner, smaller around the abdomen, less stressed. I'm also waiting 3 hours between meals, and not gouging myself with protein whey isolate all the time. And, I now workout 2 hours before breakfast - all because of this channel
Thank you Autumn !!!
Wow that’s incredible!! Thanks for sharing, Robert!
no thank you @@AutumnBates I value real people, speaking truth with flexibility knowing everyone may be a little different. I'm viewing
1. Autumn Bates for nutrition/ fasting
2. Rick Beato for everything music
3. Jeff Cavaliere for workout insight
the rest is just gravy :D
3 hours between meals keeps your fat storing hormone elevated ALL the time. You can't burn body fat when your insulin is elevated.
@@thomasjensen6243 l2 low carb
A 1 hour walk will get you roughly about 7k steps. Then all your incidental steps on top of that can usually make up 10k.
Walk to the train station, park further away from work. Take a walk at lunch.
...and that's PLENTY...
So discouraged by all these titles that are titled “Five mistakes you are making” with just about everything. Exercise, nutrition, fasting, makeup, oh my goodness. There seem to be no end to the mistakes we make on our desperate journey to doing life right.
So freaking true! Glad to see other speaking up about this issue!
Totally agree.
Thank you..I thought I was atleast walking right😟
LOL. Just thinking about all the cortisol produced from the stress of thinking about all the “mistakes” we are making. And we all know how cortisol contributes to weight gain! These people need to rethink their headlines and the way they message. And the rest of us: relax, do the research, and learn what is best for our own bodies. Be happy that we’ve chosen to pursue health, strength, and well-being. Not everyone makes that choice. So cheers to us🤜🏻🤛🏻🥰!
Why is it an issue? It's a case of no pain no gain. .Unless. .what you meant was it's an issue because UA-camrs should point out these mistakes when they do their First video rather than making followup videos.
This makes me feel a lot better. I enjoy walking, but I always felt like it I “had to run” or I’m not doing enough. I injured my knees during a run, and now I avoid it. Good to know walking adds up 😊
My last record of walking which was 2 days ago 16k steps. I am also doing intermittent fasting & in 2 months I have lost 9 kgs with proper diet & by drinking lots of water & having 1 cheat day. 16 hours of intermittent fasting works for me. 🥰🥰
3rd day of 10k steps. Getting easier each day.
I have been walking 10K since the 19th..I'm down 9lbs currently..I been burning atleast 3,000 or more calories a day
@@nanascott1342 hey how are you burning 3000 calories, today was my 2nd day and I can burn only 400 calories
@@manshi4911 I'm going based off what my fitbit is saying...it shows me the steps I'm taking aswell as calories I'm burning. I don't stop moving until I hit 3,000 calories. I am down 11.4lbs now since the 19th
@@manshi4911 how many steps are you taking?
@@nanascott1342 10k
I walk 8 miles per day. 5 miles in the morning and 3 miles in the evening. I don't use step counters because they just are not accurate. I use a GPS map that's an app on my phone. I don't care about steps I care about miles. I only walk. No jogging or running because I have stenosis. I weighed 261 lbs on January 1st 2020. Now I weigh 165 lbs. My waist has gone from 57 inches to 38 inches. Walking is the best exercise for me.
But do you walk everyday? 7 days a week? Do you walk with an empty stomach? Are you counting calories? How many calories a day? I would love to loose 100 pounds as well. Do you know if the length of the time you spend walking matters? Please help. Thanks....❤️
@@deepdude4719 Yes I walk 7 days a week. I walk 5 miles every morning before I eat anything and 3 miles every afternoon before dinner. I stick to no more than 1450 calories a day. Calories in calories out matters. Yes the length of time walking matters. In order to get your body to burn fat you have to raise your heart rate for a sustained period of time. When I started I could only walk about 1.5 miles at a time and it would take 16 minutes per mile. My average walking time now is under 13 minutes a mile. Which for a 59 year old, 5 foot 6 inch male is considered excellent. It takes time and discipline. I encourage you to give it a go.
@@jasontiver3302 Thank you! I highly appreciate this response. I have restricted my calories intake and I have lost 14 pounds in 2 weeks. I feel great but I haven’t been confident to include any exercise in my routine. I learn that walking is the best way to drop weight so I will definitely follow your suggestions. A thousand thank you! !!!!, 😇
Watches this video during quarantine :
Started walking in circles around my room...
2x6km daily.
I walk to/from work.
I’m loving it!
Never thought I would love waking that much.
It is just a lovely time.
You are amazing! I'm so glad someone is talking about the benefits of walking. I walk a minimum of 5 miles every day. I walk around the parking garage at work, or the parking lot of the apartment complex next to my work. I walk as soon as I get home. On weekends I will occasionally walk over 15, 000 steps. Running is hard on the joint, but occasionally I'll do a sprint. I find walking to be very therapeutic and it does pump up those good mood endorphins.
Just walk 11k steps this morning and plan to walk again in the afternoon to make it 15k yey
My goal each day is 15,000 steps. I reach this goal on most days, some times I exceed it. For instance, today I hit 16,000.
I can’t stop watching your videos. You’re so knowledgeable. I feel like I can really trust your expertise.
Really, by putting one foot in front of the other is hardly rocket science, you may need to get outside and meet people.
I’ve got that belly fat so took your advice. I gave up running due to back ache but I followed what you said (I bought a book from Amazon to keep me on tack called ‘get 1% better for 100 days’. Found it really helped along with your enthusiasm. Losing weight steadily walking along the river. Great stuff. Keep walking. N.
Since quarantine started I've been walking way more. I started out with just 10k steps but kept kicking it up and now I'm at a happy 30k steps every day. I have lost 15lbs which I think is pretty impressive since my starting weight was 155. Over all walking has definitely changed my life for the better! 🙂
Autumn, I love all your videos. All so extremely helpful. I am a mother of 9 with 7 kids still living home (and by “kids,” I mean 20s down to 12). Your advice has changed my life and my family’s. We all feel better, have more energy, and we have been having a great time going on hikes together. The advice to eat more protein, cut down on sugar, and time nutrients for maximum benefit has had tremendous positive effects! Thank you!
I do all my walking in the morning. 1-2 hours everyday. I do the rebounder several times a day when I am at home. I'm retired. I do ad a little running during my walk when I feel like it.
You are awesome - I have only recently come across your channel and it’s the most sensible, informative and realistic info I have heard. Thank you 😊 i🙏🏾
When I was wearing my fit bit I found that I was stepping close to 15,000 steps a day ... that included my daily walk and my steps through out the day. It’s amazing how easy it is to step over 10,000
I had results walking 30 minutes each day. But once I upped my walking to one hour per day, wow - belly fat really decreased rapidly. For me, walking more than a half hour is key for optimal results. I don’t “fast walk” or count steps or any of that.
Love the channel, Autumn! Thank you for keeping us motivated. I am just a bit away from downgrading from obese to overweight. I don't care how funny it sounds, I look forward to achieve that milestone!
That's great!! Stay healthy!!
@@ronnieking3848 Thank you!! ❤
Thank you, I just joined your channel . I’m going to start .walking now. You’re so nice.😊
I use a daily walk with my intermittent fasting. I average 200 miles a month.
I ❤ Autumn Bates' channel. A place of hope, among other things. Thank you, Autumn. 🍂 P.S. Thank you for the advice about not doing all the walking at once and then not again (i.e., staying still all day afterward). This is my 3rd day of 10,000 steps a day and this was the mistake I was making. I am glad to be corrected right away. Thank you, Autumn.
I have recently started to increase load when I walk and run. Over time I have lost about 15 lbs but to maintain progress (as there are limitations to how many steps I can walk each day for practical reasons) I have added a 15 lbs weight vest... and now, also pulling tire attached with hip-straps and walking sticks. In my mind, progress can be obtained in many different ways. And, due to practical reasons, walking take a lot of time of a day, adding weight or some other means to increas load can make sense for many. To some extend, increasing number of steps for progress is a great way, it also has limitations. Also, the body adapts to the new lighter bodyweight - so you can actually experience you need to double the load to maintain progress. Focusing on steps alone is a great start... but other ways to increase load should be taken into consideration by everybody.
As a stay at home Mom and a full time caregiver for a disabled parent I struggle getting my walks in. I have a rebounder for lymphatic drainage and use that to make up for the steps I can't get outside. I would love to know how rebounding compares to walking and running. Also love your videos and can't wait to binge them all!
Great video idea, thank you for the suggestion!
Watch some of Dave Hall's videos on rebounding.
I do well with steps during the week when I'm working. As a teacher I'm on my feet a lot. And I also tend to park far from entrances. You'd be surprised how quickly those steps add up.
I'm thinking this coming week I may start walking once around the building at work each time I get a break. And then after work I'm going to find places like downtown areas or shopping plazas or malls for bad weather days to walk for a half hour. Then walk again on the treadmill when I go to the gym. I think intentional walks on top of what I get at work will be helpful
I found myself feeling a lot better and weight falling off while I was working at a conference for 2 weeks. I was walking ~3 miles a day and almost all of it was outdoors. I knew I wanted to really amp up my walking and now realize the benefit I was getting from being outside as well. Going to go back to walking as many errands as possible and using the treadmill to fill in the gaps. Thanks for this. :)
After my two hip replacement surgeries, both my orthopedic surgeon & my chiropractor told me to walk. I started one month ago, one hour, every morning. I also started doing a lot of stretching for my hips, pelvis & lower back to start correcting bio mechanical problems I developed when I was disabled, which cause me chronic sciatic nerve & lumbar spine pain. I went on the ketogenic diet plan as well. I've done that diet before & do quite well on it. So far I've lost ten pounds & have made significant improvements with mobility & chronic pain management. I'm aiming to lose at least 40 LBs & correct my bio mechanical problems enough to be able to go back to the gym when this COVID business is over with. I had to stop training when my hips went to hell in a hand-basket from avascular necrosis. A severely restricted blood supply to the joint that kills the hip joint head so it collapses. Then you can't move the joint without severe, debilitating pain. Same damn thing happened to my brother. So I guess it's hereditary. Surgeon said it was.
Last year, I walked 20 miles over the span of one day. This year, I’ve got a goal of walking 21 miles in one day, before the year is over. Right now, I’m consistently at 15,000-20,000 steps per day, going above that and hitting 30,000 steps at least once a week. This year is almost over, so I’m hoping to meet my goal this next week.
I jump out of bed walking. The impulse is so strong with me now. I usually top out at over 19000 steps for the day before midnight reset
Great info, thanks!
Loved this video!! Thanks for sharing
I am 12k but will gradually push for 15k throughout my day. Many thanks.
Everyone is different, but screw the fit bit! I have maintained my weight partly with walking for years. I use my intuition and let my body and mind guide me.
Sassy Doe if you need to calculate Calories you can measure distance using Google maps. Just out of curiosity I measured the circumference of my local park's walking area here in London using a measuring wheel & it came to 874 meters. .which was very close to how much Google maps said it was. Distance & weight is all you need to work out Calories burned.
I walk an hour min a day. I don't measure or count steps. I'm watching this so that I won't plateau. I do sit at a desk all day so I'll try to walk on my breaks. I also switch up my walking places. Sometimes hills and sometimes by the marinas or beaches. 3 wks down. Gained muscle mass and loss 2 lbs already
All I can say that I am so glad I found your channel 💖💖very informative 💞
I'm gonna go take a long walk now and listen to my audio book while the sun's still out! Definitely a favourite part of my day :)
I started walking in late August 2020 to reduce my blood pressure. Around that time, I found your videos where you talk about walking for weight loss. Since then, I have lost a little more than 40 pounds and greatly improved my health, strength, stamina, muscle tone, flexibility, and energy. I walk about 20,000 steps a day (up to 25,000 for today). During the work week, I usually get in 6-8 miles of walking, spread throughout the day in 1-3 mile increments. On Saturdays, I challenge myself with one 8 mile walk. Sundays, I usually have a couple short walks plus a 4 mile walk in the afternoon. I've become addicted to walking!
Such great advice, thank you 😊
Thanks Autumn...you are cool!
I liked the video a lot. I wore a Fitbit for the last 5 years and recently stopped. I just wanted a regular old watch! I don't knock the Fitbit because it helped me get in the gym and keep track of workouts. But, it's nice not having to charge my watch.
I have a tracker that I only charge once every 2 weeks
For years I thought running meant more calories were being burning then discovered that only time really matters. I started walking for 1 hour. As I slowly lost weight I increased my walk time because when I weighed 200lbs I burned more calories walking for 1 hour than I do now at 160lbs.
Wow congrats!
Autumn you learn me alot I cant get enough of your vidios
That was my plan. I was on my first week of 2000 steps per day. Thursday I did 3000. I went to meet my daughter at her walk park. She does 6 miles a day. I DID IT TOOOOOOO. MY PEDOMETER SAID 17,500 something. It’s Tuesday. I still hurt alittle. But I’m glad I tried it. Now I know it’s doable. Also I got my protein powder from U in 2 days from California to east Pa. Amazing. Gave my daughter one to try. Hope she loves it like I do. I have a Nordic Track ski machine for bad weather days. And 2 rebounders i need to start using.
I walk above 10 k everyday(5 1/2 km approx) uphill to work. I saw result in 1 week.
I love walking and used walking to start my weight loss. That said, walking isn’t always harmless and the inactive need to be careful as they increase their mileage. Early on in my walking efforts I got a stress fracture in my right foot due to increasing my miles too fast and poor shoes. That sidelined my walking for months, but I still walk 5-6 days a week, often 15k-20k or more steps when I do walk. That said, walking is more painful now due to the past injury, which I might have avoided had I used more caution in upping my steps early on.
YukariOro could u plz plz share on best shoeware and what precautions someone trying to get into walking should take?
So sorry about this. We all want results so quickly.
Thanks for bringing attention to this. I started walking and i made mistake of doing 10000 steps one day all at same time and my knees have not been same ever since . I still walk but I've slowed my pace...and now break it up.. hoping it will get better but yeah...you can still injure yourself walking.....
I started to do 10k walking challenge for 1 week since Thursday (10/12/2020)! in my fourth day I found myself doing 13k a day! I am trying to understand what it is doing to m body and although I can't pinpoint what it is I can say it feels so much better! And I lost 1 kilo! due to injury, I find walking more achievable than other types of exercises! I am loving it so thank you for the videos :) It is also good to know that with walking you can't have too much :)
thank you for encouraging walking! It's such a great basic form of cardio! And getting outside in the fresh air, wind, nature is so good for the mind!
For a work challenge I aimed to walk 20,000 a day and lost so much weight eventhough I wasn't aiming to. Didn't win the work challenge though. And I was glad it was over because I was so tired forcing myself to walk 10K before bed.
I used to walk a lot back in Boston, now that I am Texas where everything is miles away and no transportation, I just stick to HIIT to maintain or lose some pounds. Never wore a smart watch, I listen to my body.
you are great! love your content.
I love walking outside but its been wet and cold here. Definitely makes a difference in my emotions
I am a teacher. 10k Steps a day is easy for me. I also do long distance walking (20-30k) on the weekend plus bike riding. I love walking long distance. But my teacher lifestyle also promotes a lot of eating out plus little "rewards" after I do a long distance exercise....especially a latte or ice-cream. I live in a large city so the junk food is so tempting.
I love your videos. Sooooooo helpful!! And thankful to God that WALKING is the way to lose weight!!! Having three young kids makes it so challenging to get to the gym. Love this! Thank you 🙏🏼
Yes God made it that walking is the way to loose weight as he despises jogging and all who do so. You should throw stones at the next jogger you see to please him.
Thank you so much for this. I couldn't get over the go for one long walk but I dont have time hurdle! Now I can!
Thank you for your advice. I wish I would have found you years ago. You're awesome I'm sharing your channel with all my friends and family.
Oh damn I was walking straight 1-2 hrs in one shot. I should split this up throughout the day ....
I walk like 10000 steps in the house. Then about 4000 more walking my dogs. Then it's something about that fitness tracker. Because when I see it's about a 1/2hr to midnight. I'm up balls to the wall getting as many steps in before that bewitching hour. I usually top 19000 steps before it resets.
My husband suggested that I walked 10,000 steps, and before I had a moment to think or even walk 10,000 steps for the first time, he suggested I could increase it to 12,000 steps.
However, I have started walking and have now walked over 12,000 steps 4 times this week. I previously tried low carb diets, slim fast , running and walking, UA-cam workouts etc etc. Nothing has been more successful than walking 10,000 steps a day. It’s working, I am using Slim Fast still x two shakes a day and a normal meal. Because of the calorie deficit (I burn off 700-900 calories each time I walk) I am loosing weight whoo hoo!
Louise CornwellMorlin - how long is the distance you walk when you do 12000 steps? I personally don't measure steps, instead I use Google maps to measure miles on a long high road here in London & also used a measuring wheel to find the circumference of my local park because after walking 6 miles on the high road I then add another mile of walking in the park. Walking burns calories for me. .as long as I don't eat afterwards like a hog;-)
Im so darm Obsess with your videos. Everything makes great Sense. Looking forward changing the my little mistakes. Thank u so much 🥰
glad to have found you! you are so enthusiastic and it really comes across how this lifestyle benefits yourself as well :)
I get 15-20k just at work. I have an amazfit watch. I also run and walk extra. The most total I've gotten is about 35k. If you are already active to see a change you have to change diet or step it up even more.
I wish people would talk about walking time instead of the number of steps. I hate being dependent upon electronic devices like Fit Bit or Apple watches.
Yup!
👍yep
10 miles a day
True
Right...me personally I just walk .... I was wearing 2× tops, size 16 pants, all i did was just walked no counting steps just walked ,and in a year I went down to wearing medium tops and size 12 pants, I also changed my eating lifestyle to a plant based one, everyone's body is different, you can walk at a slow pace and still loose weight, the key is being in tune to your own body needs, in my opinion counting calories and keeping up with steps just makes things more complicated, but to each's own ..I prefer to just work out for a hour with some good music and keep it pushing.......wishing everyone the best on their individual weight loss goals.
love you mentioned emf!!
Thanks for sharing
Jogging can be difficult with stiff knees. I end up with a jogging walk! The park is so wet though!😟
American ladies are very motivational! I can get kind of lazy sometimes!😟👩⚕️
Buy a rain suit, like golfers wear,, buy a golf brolly,, most importantly buy decent hiking shoes, that are waterproof to a certain level
I never count steps. I just try to walk somewhat fast for about an hour a few days per week. I used to love running; I ran about 7 miles 3 or 4 days per week, but in 2006 I had both knees replaced. I never thought I would enjoy walking, but I do.
Wow! Great tips! As an avid daily outdoor walker, I just loved tips nr 1 & 2. Thank you so much! 😌
I've been walking 10,000 steps for a week now and I feel great.
Autumn, I love your videos! Is there a certain speed for walking that is optimal or is it ok to walk leisurely? Should I walk fast in order to keep the bpm above a certain threshold such as within the fat burning zone?
Let’s say you do a longer walk. Is it ok to incrementally run throughout the walk or does that defeat the purpose ?
Great information. Thanks again.
I recently bumped my step goal to 12,000. As a long distance runner I do always wear my Garmin watch, which tracks steps. When I'm running I have no issues hitting it, but lately I have been walking more. I noticed I do NOT lose weight when I rely on running alone.
You cutting out the pauses between your sentences raises my cortisol levels
Really? How funny, waiting between sentences raises mine hahaha
..she must go nuts editing these vids...lol
I used to get those 10k but quarantine,working from home, studying and such make it very very hard. I've lowered it down to 9k so I can keep it real and not be unmotivated by never getting my minimum steps everyday
9k steps is still really great! I'm happy to hear that you still prioritized walking and adjusted your goal to better fit your schedule at the moment!
These tips were very useful. Thank you 😊😊
Solid video, informative, thanks!
Do those walkout videos count as walking, you know the ones where you’re walking in place and varying arm and leg movements.
One way to motivate me to walk the 10,000 feet a day as I convinced myself that it makes my watch healthier. I found it more motivating to do my walking because my watch depends on it. It is a win-win situation as both my watch and I feel healthier and none feel selfish neglecting other important things to do in our busy life.
I started doing 10k steps 2 weeks back everyday..
I started first two days with 5k steps and fron third day onwards i did 10k steps..i walk at a bit faster pace not too fast..
When i checked my weight yesterday i just lost 700 gms not much difference on the scale i know that but i am definitely definitely seeing some changes in my body and also with some changes in my food habits..
I will start doing some planks with it from today and when i did planks today i could hold 30 seconds at once i couldnt beleive my self 2 weeks back i couldnt even come to the plank position and would just give up in just 5 seconds..but i could do it today yes i can..
I am loving this changes in my body...i wont give up or stop i will do it..yes its difficult very difficult it takes me 1 hour 30 mins to complete and i am just done soemtimes that i cant do it but we gotta keep it doing..not just to look good but for our health which is the biggest wealth for us..
You are so encouraging
