Walking: pre-walk and post-walk routine
Today I did an Egoscue pre-walk warmup and post-walk stretch from YouTube.
I really enjoyed them and plan to add them to my walk days. But of course, being a proper vidiot...I'm wondering what else is out there! I found this warmup -- and she also has a post-walk stretch, so may try that if I'm tighter on time. Do you have a walking routine? How much and how often do you walk? |

Wow, that's a lot of walking! I'm jealous. I wish my neighborhood was more walking-friendly but I usually have to drive to where we walk. I could walk to a few places but it would include walking on the side of a busy road (which I hate to do, especially if the kids are with me). |

I don't warm up or cool down for walks, just start a bit slower at the beginning and at the end... well, I'm usually jumping right into something else (work meeting, kiddie duties, etc.) I do fit in yoga a few times a week to get some flexibility and mobility training in, aside from strength training. And my steps include any arm motions from lifting weights (high reps = kinda like more steps!) and I sometimes will do floor aerobics in the morning if I know I can't get out much to walk on a given day (so I get a few thousand steps in early before life gets in my way!) I also am very fortunate to live in a very walkable neighborhood without having to live in a big city (don't miss those days!) and the weather here is incredible most of the year (I often just look up at the clear sky on a non-windy/non-rainy day and express my awe and gratitude for what a beautiful day it is!)
