Walking Weight Loss Plan

Here are a few ways to boost your calorie burn to lose more weight when walking

1) Walk for at least an hour

Compared to a 1/2 hour walk, when you exercise for an hour or more you really crank up the burn off of calories when you stop exercising. This means you will burn on average over 300 calories from your hour of walking and then burn even more in the post-workout phase. Grab a partner to walk with you and the hour will literally fly by

2) Use a pair of fitness walking poles

When you walk with a pair of walking poles you can increase your workout's total calorie burn by nearly 50% more than if you walked without the poles. Pole walking makes you workout the muscles in your core (waist, side body, back) and your upper body (arms, shoulder, chest). So you can firm your entire body just while walking. This makes walking a full body exercise similar to cross country skiing.

So now you have a couple ideas for a walking weight loss plan that can not only slim you but also create long lean muscles.
