Lose Weight by WALKING! Walking Pads, Steps per Day, & More

from Well Beyond 40 · host JJ Virgin

In this episode, I dive into the incredible health benefits of a simple activity that we often take for granted: walking. While it may not be considered a strenuous exercise, recent research highlights just how powerful walking can be for our overall well-being and longevity.   I discuss the findings of a study that reveals the optimal number of daily steps needed to significantly reduce the risk of early death from various causes. The episode also explores how adding higher-intensity walking can further improve body composition and metabolic health markers.   Throughout the episode, I share my personal tips and tricks for incorporating more walking into your daily routine, making it easier to reach your step goals consistently. I also discuss how getting a walking pad has been a game-changer for me in terms of increasing the intensity of my walks.   Whether you're a seasoned walker or just starting to embrace this simple yet effective form of physical activity, this episode will inspire you to prioritize walking as a key component of your health and longevity strategy.   FULL show notes: jjvirgin.com/walkingpads   Study: Association of Healthy Lifestyle With Years Lived Without Major Chronic Diseases: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamainternalmedicine/fullarticle/2763720   Walking Pad: https://amzn.to/3vccaOV   Urevo Walking Pad: https://amzn.to/3Pkj4J0   TRX Resistance Training Equipment: Free Shipping on all orders $99+: https://www.avantlink.com/click.php?tt=ml&ti=931205&pw=347877   Shop Xiser: https://xiser.com/   Shop Oura Rings: https://ouraring.com/   Track your protein & macros with Cronometer App: ​​https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=766203&u=523525&m=61121&urllink=&afftrack=   Shop Apple Watches: https://amzn.to/43dn8QV   Aduro Sport Weighted Vest: https://amzn.to/4aSOVIM Check out the products I recommend in my Amazon storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/jj.virgin Learn more about your ad choices.
