walking to be the best form of exercise that
people of all ages can do.
  • WALKING AND CHOLESTROL Regular walking can
    increase the levels of good cholesterol.
  • WALKING AND SMOKING Regular walking is a
    positive habit to replace smoking with.

  • WALKING AND BLOOD PRESSURE - Regular walking
    makes the heart work more efficiently and
    improves blood circulation. Blood vessels become
    more elastic and the amount of oxygen delivered
    to the tissues increases.

  • WALKING AND STRESS Walking is one easy way to
    deal with tension, anxiety and stress. Studies
    show that people who exercise regularly can cope
    better with stresses of life. Researchers in USA
    found a 14 average drop in anxiety levels in
    regular brisk walkers. Walking recharges our
    batteries after tension and stress have drained
    them of power and energy.

    improves muscle tone, makes your heart stronger
    and gives you that bite of fitness. Do it
