Walking
Walking is the most democratic of activities and is great for building fitness. It’s natural, it’s easy, it’s safe and just about anyone can do it. Easier than jogging, swimming and other aerobic exercises, mankind’s simplest way of getting around is quickly becoming the easiest and most effective way for most people to exercise, lose weight and get fit. Almost a ‘forgotten art’, walking is fast becoming the exercise of choice for many people – and just about anyone can do it, young and old.
