from Walking & Talking with Helen - Walking Workouts · host Helen M. Ryan

In 15 minutes, turn your metabolism's dimmer switch from “dim” back to “bright.” Increase your energy and wake up a sluggish metabolism with this low-impact walking workout. During the walk you’ll also get simple science-backed hacks that boost your metabolism all day, every day. And... we’ll do three short speed pushes to help flip that switch in real life (but you don't have to push. You can walk at your own pace!).The best part: You can do this walk at home or outside. March in your living room, hop on a treadmill or walking pad, or head out the door. (There’s a bell at the halfway point so you don’t have to check your watch.)And did you know?The “Special Agent” Muscle: Acts like a vacuum for blood sugar… even while you sit (yippee!).The Short-and-Fast Hack: Why small bursts of “hustle” (like trying to catch a bus) can cut your risk of dying from heart disease by almost 40%.The “WD-40” Effect: How moving your arms while you walk can grease your stiff arteries and flood your tired brain with oxygen. Yihaa!I also get sidetracked and talk about…Almost destroying my calves with back-to-back massages in Thailand (oops). My “digital nomad” days with nearly unlimited coffee and pastries while walking through foreign cities (because I could not figure out the bus system). And who was in the 80s supergroup The Power Station? Inquiring minds want to know.Press play to turn on that metabolism. Some like it hot, and some sweat when the heat is on…Tap Follow so your next walk is waiting for you.Support the showFollow, subscribe, or leave me a review. I appreciate your support.
