      If walking is: healthy, enjoyable, and people end up making good deisions/plans while walking, why are the masses so disinclined towards taking a walk?

        Walking is without a doubt the single most fundamental factor to my health there is. Diet is a far second. If I make sure to walk at least 2 hours a day everything from my gut to my mind is significantly better.

          From Balzac’s Theory of Walking:

          “Gait is the physiognomy of the body.

          Gaze, voice, respiration, and walk are identical reflections of one's thoughts. Since a man cannot control all of these different and simultaneous signs at once, seek out the one telling the truth, and it will reveal his full self.

          Rest is the silence of the body.”

              German guy lost more than 8kg (18lbs) in 4 weeks by simply walking 200 minutes per day, with no change to diet.

                Walking excess fat off is the best way to lose weight. Not only is it easy to stick to and enjoyable, but you do not destroy your metabolism in the process. Walking is a far superior way to lose weight than to cut caloric consumption. After all you want to improve the hormonal profle and body composition for the long term.

                Put yourself on fire for peak energy metabolism.

                  @zeal 200 min daily, approximately the average time a German spends watching television per day. Oh boy.

                      Hi @Oj_simpson, I am glad you are free to walk.

                      I‘m a German guy, although not this one, but I can relate. I gained some body fat when I walked way less than I used to. No change in diet. Started to walk more than an hour every day again (plus the walking inside) and lost some of it. Just walking definitely has an impact on my body composition.

                        A great Meta-study on physical activity and mental health

                        1. One in eight people (970 million) worldwide were affected by a mental health disorder. 44% will experience a mental health disorder in their lifetime. This is both tragic and expensive.

                        2. physical activity is effective for reducing mild-to-moderate symptoms of depression, anxiety and psychological distress. Resistance exercise had the largest effects on depression, while Yoga and other mind–body exercises were most effective for reducing anxiety. The findings recommends multimodal, moderate and vigorous intensity physical activity.

                        3. Physical activity should be a mainstay approach in the management of depression, anxiety and psychological distress. Despite the evidence for the benefits of physical activity, it has not been widely adopted therapeutically. Patient resistance, the difficulty of prescribing and monitoring physical activity in clinical settings, as well as the huge volume of largely incommensurable studies, have probably impeded a wider take-up in practice.

                          @Norwegian-Mugabe about to walk 7 km following the south Galician Atlantic coast, beaches, nature, sunny day... After 7Km a little mountain with outstanding rock formations (not natural imo) awaits us, and at the top... A perfectly placed pull-up bar between two trees. Happy Saturday

                            Hi @Martiño , That sounds great. I will go out on a hike now too. You can really feel the pull of the weekend!

                                Sharing some more articles on the wonderful benefits of walking:

                                The health benefits of walking are endless

                                Biggest ever study on walking and mortality

                                How to walk(lol)

                                A retard lost 20 KGs walking

                                I have to say that I agree with Wes Cecil in the Youtube video I posted earlier. All this focus on time and heart rate is undesirable.

                                      @Norwegian-Mugabe I think people would walk more if they weren't stuck in some ugly concrete city. I know I would.

                                        Personally, I don't think normal walking is all that significant to health. Paced walking on the other hand helps me sleep better and improves mood.

                                          @bolditinerary You are dead wrong regarding regular walk. Just read all the material we have already posted. Walking improves health almost as much as anything else.

                                            @bruh You are quite right. Both variety of walking paths, and the potential of good aesthetic experiences increases the deisre to walk. So a better walking experience which is a good thing, increases the amount of walking which is a fantastic thing. Improving life is to a large degree about enganging in positive feedback loops and ending negative feedback loops.

                                            In what way are you stuck with urban ugliness?
                                            Why are you unable/unwilling to move? It sounds like a classic form of learned helplessness to me.
