Walking Tip #7: Increasing Your Workout

VIDEO Heather Kahn Reports

You should increase your walking workout gradually.

Try walks of 45-60 minutes, especially if weight loss is your goal.

Walk faster than 4 miles per hour to build aerobic fitness. Add some hills to your route, varying the terrain will give you a better workout.
