The Best Times to Walk, Depending on Your Goals
Jessica Migala APRIL 19, 2019
‘Starting a consistent walking routine is the first step toward improving your health. But maybe you’re ready to take it up a notch and squeeze out the biggest benefits from every stroll. Research is finding that when you walk matters in relation to specific health goals.
Whether you’re looking to lower your blood pressure, boost your happiness or find a remedy for insomnia, there’s a right time to walk based on your goal:
In new research in the journal Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, people who had hypertension performed moderate-intensity exercise for 45 minutes three times a week for 10 weeks either in the morning or evening. Those who exercised between 6–8 p.m. saw an 8-point drop in systolic blood pressure, on average, compared to controls, while morning exercisers experienced a 5-point drop.
So the next time you’re tempted to switch on the TV after dinner, go for a stroll around your neighborhood instead.’

‘Next time you are out on a busy street, look around you. There will, no doubt, be people walking and going about their daily business. So far, so ordinary.
But stop for a moment to really watch. Hunched over, shoulders tense, arms unmoving, heads often bowed – the simple act of movement seems a struggle for many.
And that is because they are not walking correctly. I admit it sounds ludicrous – starting to walk is a milestone most of us pass shortly after our eighth month of life, usually with the help of our parents. But, typically, bar a little self-taught fine-tuning, there ends the lesson.’

How to Burn Calories with a Power Walk
Samantha Clayton, AFAA, ISSA –
‘If you enjoy walking as part of your fitness routine, then try a power walk to challenge yourself. You can add in some of my favorite toning exercises while you power walk and get a perfect cardio-boosting workout that will help you to burn extra calories, while toning up your legs, arms and abs.
What is a power walk?
A power walk is when you are walking very fast—to the point where you are almost jogging—but instead maintain a fast walking pace.
Why choose a power walk over a running routine?
You might wonder why you should maintain a power walk speed instead of just breaking into a light jog. One reason is because this is a walking workout and not a jogging workout! On a more serious note, people who are new to fitness might not be ready to start jogging right away, which makes power walking a good choice for a cardio workout. I believe in taking exercise one step at a time, and walking is simply one step before jogging.
If you’re already an avid exerciser or runner, adding a power walk to your current routine may be a great way to ensure that you are performing a good variety of exercise styles. Power walking would also be a great choice as a rest day routine.
For those that are concerned about doing high-impact moves because of previous injuries, recent pregnancy or excess body fat, power walking is a great alternative to running or jogging.’
