Are you a new bee in walking? Here are some tips from Mickey Mehta and Bhubesh Kamble

• Take your stamina, intensity and fitness level into consideration first.
• Start with short distances in the beginning. You can even walk for 10 to 15 minutes two three times a day while going about your daily chores.
• Once you develop a habit, you can sprint walk. Set a time say for a minute, walk fast for the time and then walk slow and then again start walking faster.

To lose weight

If you are walking with the objective to lose weight here is what you need to do.

• Do a little bit of warm up before you walking. Address your shoulder, back and chest. Stretch your lower back and touch your toes.
  
• While walking keep your arms circulating back and forth, up and down. Also do push-ups and lower back exercises to get a complete work-out.
• You need to walk for at least 35 to 40 minutes a day to lose weight. You can also go for variations such as sprint walking and long distance walking to achieve your target. Variation is the key.
• The combination of weight training, jogging and walking works the best for losing weight.
