Running with Liam

Constant motion
One thing to improve your walking in the winter is the use of a pedometer. One good goal in walking is 10,000 steps a day. Some fitness experts share to walk 10,000 steps any way we can in a day is like a 30 minute workout for our heart and body. I use a pocket pedometer because it is a little harder to loose. Walking more indoors a pedometer can help you walk as it motivates you to your goals. Walking through out the day, shopping, parking further from store, using steps, take walk breaks from the computer, indoor walking, treadmills, housework, yard work, mowing, shoveling, (take breaks in shoveling, listen to body) work and play has step conversions, run with Liam in the house. Workouts also add to our steps. walk to chase away the winter blues.
Winter is also a good time to use a band or resistant tube. Joint pain, muscles, heart health all improve with this tool. Just a free tip for us older people, muscle looks better than to thin and to fat.
A dusting of snow today. Keep walking
