Physical activity doesn't need to be complicated. In fact, do you want to know the number one thing I recommend to anyone who wants to get healthier? WALKING! Do you want to know the sort of exercising that I do more than anything else? WALKING!
Walking is so powerful. Walking offers endless health benefits for your body and mind, regardless of your fitness level or age. The best thing about walking is it's feasible for just about everyone! All you need is a pair of decent walking shoes and a safe place to explore. You can go as slow or fast as you'd like, as long or short as you'd like. It's completely customizable to your fitness level, desire, and time constraint.
Getting healthier and losing weight is simple, but not easy. Walking is simple and can be easy. I find walking quite relaxing, meditative, and refreshing. It has profound effects on my mental health that I truly couldn't keep my head afloat without.
