    Your mood will improve

    A brisk walk is proven to increase your body’s production of feel-good hormones. Walking is a great, natural way to reduce stress and anxiety.

    Combat heart disease

    When you spend more time walking, you help raise your heart rate and lower your blood pressure. Regular exercise makes for a stronger and healthier heart that's less likely to develop heart disease.

    Strengthens muscles and bones

    Walking tones your leg and abdominal muscles, as well as increasing your joints’ range of motion. Stronger muscles help to improve posture and reduce the risk of bone disease. Shifting the pressure from your joints in this way helps lessen pain for those who suffer from arthritis.
