Stuck in a Rut? 15-Minute Boredom Buster Walk | Inner Action Hero | 53

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

Get inspired to exercise more in 15 minutes. This brisk walk helps you to connect with the person inside you who wants to move their body (wait, what?). It's the ultimate "fake it til you feel it" move. Walking on the “hamster wheel” gets boring. If you’re tired of your routine, let’s steal some motivational tricks from Hollywood. In this world, you aren’t just “exercising”… you’re training for the action scenes of your real life (even if your biggest stunt is sprinting through an airport).You can do this walk inside at home (treadmill, walking pad, marching in place) or outside. There’s a bell at the halfway point so you know when to turn around, and some background music to help you channel your inner John Wick.This steady-paced, low-impact walking workout wakes up your brain, burns some calories, gives you around 1,300 steps, and proves that you don’t need a movie contract to train like a badass… because you already rock the free world.I also wander off into stories about being a vegetarian who didn’t eat vegetables, climbing 300 temple steps in Chiang Mai, falling down the YouTube rabbit hole of John Wick, Jennifer Garner, and Brie Larson’s superhero training, and why hoisting your carry-on by yourself into the overhead bin is an underrated action-hero move.Tap Follow so your next walk is already waiting for you when you need it.P.S.
