　　1. Change a place to walk:

　　Did you know? Different road surfaces can also give different stimulation to the body! If you are used to walking on asphalt roads or treadmills, you might as well change to the beach, grass, or even gravel roads. Experts say this can allow you to burn an extra 60 calories per hour.

　　2. Cross training is more efficient:

　　Is there any way you can burn more calories in the same amount of time while walking without burning yourself out? The answer is? Add in running, or even sprinting. For example, every 5 minutes of walking at the original pace can be interspersed with 1 minute of jogging. If you have been doing it for several consecutive weeks and you already feel very relaxed, you can change to interspersed sprints for 30-60 seconds.

　　3. Increase your weight:

　　Wear a backpack (please choose a professional sports or mountaineering backpack that can fit perfectly on your chest and back)! Although adding weight to your body is effective, you cannot carry it on your back without limit. Experts recommend that it should not exceed 20% of your body weight, otherwise it will hurt your lower back.

　　4. Slow down your pace to increase speed:

　　Many people are accustomed to increasing the pace when walking faster. In fact, this is the wrong method. You should slightly shorten the distance of each step at this time.

　　5.Add arm swing:

　　In order to exercise the whole body in a balanced manner, you should use both hands and feet when walking, but you do not need to swing your arms hard. Your elbows should be bent at about 90 degrees. The swing range of your arms should be from 15-20 centimeters behind your hips and forward to the height of your chest.

　　6. Use hip walking techniques:

　　Have you ever seen a walking competition? Some studies have pointed out that walking and running consume almost the same amount of calories. Why not try it? As you take each step, move your hips, use this force to push your body forward, and then take another step. When you walk, you don't have to do it this way the entire time. You can use the method mentioned in items 1-11 above to walk for a few minutes, and then intersperse it with a few minutes of walking to strengthen the buttocks. The effect is also very good.

　　7. The walking speed must reach level 7:

　　If you walk slowly along the way, like walking, the effect will be disappointing! Experts say that you must control your walking speed to a certain level. The degree of physical relaxation or fatigue is divided into 10 levels. If you lie in bed and rest still, it is level "1", and level "10" is exhaustion. The walking speed should be maintained at level "7". The feeling is... . Your breathing quickened and you started to sweat, but you were still able to talk without running out of breath.

　　Four keys to walking to lose weight

　　1. Training intensity: When you first learn, it is best to walk slower and pay attention to your heart rate. From the perspective of sports medicine, for both men and women, the optimal training pulse per minute should be 75-80% of the maximum heart rate, that is, (220-age) If the amount of walking exercise is too large and exceeds the prescribed value of the heart rate, the walking speed and walking time should be reduced immediately.

　　2. Warm-up activities: It is best to take a relaxed and slow walk for ten minutes to fully warm up. Walking is arms swinging, shoulders rotating, and conscious breathing. The warm-up should lead to a slight sweating session.

　　3. Relaxation activities: After walking, you should carry out relaxation activities. Follow up with leg, chest and back stretches for at least 7-10 minutes.

　　4. Walking with weights can increase the calories burned while walking, such as walking with a backpack. A weight of 2-3 kilograms is enough. Too much weight can cause back pain. The straps should be wide and the material on the surface that contacts the back should have good breathability.
