Episode 3297: Walking for weight loss isn't just about the number of steps you take; it's about how you walk.

His practical advice encourages listeners to gradually increase their intensity and duration, making walking an effective and sustainable part of their weight loss journey. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.ericleija.com/how-much-should-you-walk-for-weight-loss/ Quotes to ponder: "Walking for weight loss is about more than just moving - it's about pushing yourself a little more each time." "Adding elevation will burn significantly more calories than walking on flat terrain, and can also tone your legs." "If you’re using a pedometer and just starting out, build up to 5,000 steps each day. Then, gradually up to 7,000."
