Most of us these days are health conscious since our life styles are such that we need to pay extra attention unlike during olden days when their daily routine included enough physical labor. Walking is of course the best exercise routine there is, however most of us are unaware as to how much we are walking and whether we are doing it right etc etc...I came across this very interesting site which charts out your walk-jog running route besides has a calorie counter as well..

Does walking remove belly fat? I have seen plenty of people who walk every day, but they have a huge belly. Walking only improves blood circulation, and burn some calories just, yet it's a good habit.


Pictogram posted by Usha will clear your doubt about belly fat. If you see pot bellied people even after the walk, I'm sure they are not walking in the prescribed way. Most of them walk an eye wash walk. They will not be benefited by walk

It does remove belly fat.You have to walk at a brisk pace and be consistent and you can see the belly fat melt away in a matter of days..

Agreed. Brisk walking done in the right way will certainly reduces the belly fat. Pushing your body, appears to cause favorable physiological changes that milder exercise doesn’t replicate.
Walking is good exercise for our health. Walking at least 20 minutes a day is the great exercise.
It is a good exercise for our heart. It's increase our stamina.


Ask me. I'm the beneficiary of walking. For more than 20 years, i have been doing a strict 20 minute walk religiously. I'm free from any ailment. All my friends of my age who never do any physical activity are busy in making rounds to corporate hospitals allowing them to drill big holes in their pockets. They lost health. Now they are losing money.,


Thats really great ! :) We all have to take care of our health right from the beginning otherwise it may be too late ! The more active you are the better in shape and health you remain. Ideally 30 minutes a day ( for those who do not do any other exercise) should keep you fit !

Seeing the diagram will clear all the doubts about walking. Diagram is self explanatory.
Walking 1 hour every day in normal speed is equivalent to 1 hour workouts in gym. If you walk in garden, it is much beneficial for health. So friends walk and walk with lots of fun.

1hour is not necessary for a regular walker. Just walk briskly for 20 minutes every day with consistence. It gives wonderful results.

I think it also depends entirely on your lifestyle ! If you are doing some yoga or some other from of activity 20 minutes a day is more than enough but if yiu have a sedentarty lifestyle I feel that you need to walk a minmum of 35 -40 minutes at least 5 times a day to get the benefits. Either way, even a little walking is better than no walking !

It is not possible in fast moving world to spend 1 hour on walking.. 15-20 minute can be manageable. Even I walk for 15 minute per day.

It will definitely help ! I have seen people lose weight steadily just by being consistent in their walking routine ! It is better to be slow and steady than lose weight drastically ...

Trying to get a drastic reduction in weight is the mistake people commit. Such crash weight reduction processes will prove counter productive.
Friends there are many people who walk at home and don't feel to go out due to pollutions. Is it good or bad?

It is all depends on their choice but for maximising the benefit of walking, one need to go outside during morning.
