Men’s Fat Loss

Walking is the most natural things for human beings to do. We evolved from apes who walk on their hands and feet, to bipedal animals who walk upright and walk more efficiently. We were designed to walk long distance and move around as much as possible, but thanks to technology we have rapidly begun moving less and less. When we move less we burn less calories, we get tight muscles, develop bad postures and a whole array of problems arise.The biggest problem with moving less is the amount of weight we gain, because we usually eat the same amount of  food but move less, we are burning less calories and hence put on body fat. The average office worker takes about 2 - 3000 steps a day (if they're lucky) compared to the Amish people who walk an average of 18,000 steps a day; THAT'S A BIG DIFFERENCE! Now 18,000 steps probably isn't realistic for you, but what if i told you just by increasing your steps you could lose weight. Really? Something as simple as walking? YEP!This isn't just moving 10 or 20 extra steps a day, that's not going to do much at all, but if you're someone who's walking roughly 2,500 steps a day and you slowly increase your steps up to the recommendation of 10,000 steps a day, and without changing your diet (no you can't eat more food if you walk more) I promise you that you will lose weight. So what i've done is made some simple action steps you can take to walk your way to weight loss:

 Track your steps

The most important thing to do first is to find out how much you're walking everyday. You can do this a few ways. You can buy a fitbit which tracks your steps and your sleep, You can buy a pedometer which clips onto your belt or pants or you can download an app on your phone (although this drains your battery rapidly)  and track your steps that way. The most accurate way for me was by tracking my steps with a fit bit and I use it everyday.Once you know how many steps you're taking a day, I want you to set yourself a goal to walk another 200 - 500 steps on top of that. Nothing too drastic, just try and increase your steps by an extra few hundred a day and try to do that every week until you reach the 10,000 steps mark consistently. For some of you this may be a struggle at the start, but the point is to try and improve it just a little bit.You can see a video of me explaining it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkUc8LbU8fkThe more you start walking the faster you're going to be able to lose weight. Here are some walking tips you can use to help get some extra steps:- Walk to work - Walk after work - Take the stairs instead of the elevator - Every hour go for a walk around the office - Walk to the next coffee shop as opposed to the one right outside your office - Walk between commercial breaks - Organise a weekend walk - Walk around the grocery store one more time - Park the car further awayThese are only some ideas to get you moving, the possibilities to walk more are endless all you've got to do is be creative and think about how you can increase your step count. Just think how simple it could be for you to lose a kilo or two just by walking a little bit more. Once you start to see results you're not going to want to stop, and why should you if walking can help you lose body fat, just think about how much weight training and exercise are going to help.
