Slowing walking allows for more exercise time, promoting a stable fat burning process over time. Gentle, prolonged movements while walking slowly help the body regulate blood sugar levels, thereby supporting the fat loss process.
In addition, slow walking is a low-impact exercise that can be done more often, helping to increase long-term fat loss.
Warm-up
Start with the warm-up movement. That is, you walk at a comfortable pace (under 3.2km/h) for 5 minutes.
Set speed
Aim to walk at a stable speed, about 5.6km/h. Focus on maintaining this speed for 30-60 minutes.
Make the walk interesting
Listen to podcast, talk book, or music to avoid boredom during your walks.
Maintain consistency
Aim for 5-6 days of slow walking per week, especially when combined with other exercises to achieve fat loss and weight loss results.
Try the combination method
Combine slow walking with high-intensity walking throughout the week to increase calorie burning and cardiovascular health.
