Fitness, Walking
Doctors say a good walk helps fight of heart disease, high blood pressure and other illnesses as well as aid weight loss. Introducing just 30 minutes of walking, five times a week, will burn 1000 caloriesa week. If combined with healthy eating the results can be up to a four pound weight loss in three weeks!
To add to the overall well benefits, step outside for some ‘Green Exercise’ in a natural environment.
