All right, friends, are you ready to do this thing?

This thing we call a 10-minute walk together.

Welcome to walking is fitness.

This is a podcast of action because, yep, we are walking together.

I'm walking right now, the first 10 minutes of my daily walk.

I do my walk in the morning, and this morning I'm actually starting a little bit earlier than usual,

and I'll explain why in just a moment. This episode is sponsored by the Stepfit Plan.

This is a guide to help you transition your walking from functional to

fitness. And functional walking is the movement, the walking that we do every day. It serves a function.

We don't even think about it. Fitness walking takes more intentionality. It takes some intensity to rise to the

level of exercise. Now again, research has indicated that all movement is beneficial. It's

better to be walking even through the grocery store than sitting.

But walking through the grocery store does not rise to the level of exercise.

You need some intensity.

I need some intensity with how fast I'm walking.

First thing we need to do is establish a fitness habit.

That takes a little bit longer.

It's a little bit harder than I think we tend to realize. That fitness habit eventually becomes momentum, and that fitness momentum

leads to fitness transformation. The stepfit plan, it'll guide you through this transition from functional walking to fitness walking.

It's free.

It's effective.

And it's yours.
