All right. Are you ready to do this thing? This thing that is a 10-minute walk together. Welcome to

walking is fitness. This is a podcast of action because we are walking together for 10 minutes,

holding each other accountable for keeping our commitment to

fitness. This episode is sponsored by the Stepfit Plan, which is a guide to help you establish

a fitness habit, which is a little more challenging than most of us realize. You've heard that it takes 30 days to create a habit.

Research indicates it's actually more than double that. And this is the real reason why most

fitness commitments, exercise commitments don't stick because we fail to establish a habit.

We're focused on instead the goal of exercise

when really the starting goal is to get that habit going,

to get it established.

And from there, we build fitness momentum

and then on to fitness transformation.

The stepfit plan will guide you, help you to set the right starting goal so that you

can establish that habit first.

The stepfit plan is effective, it is free, and it is yours by going to walking as fitness.com the resource page.

There's also a link in the show notes that'll take you right to the step that plan and you can download that and get started.
