A PRACTICAL SOLUTION

Ilchi Lee advice that first of all, please accept that walking is real exercise. One unfortunate misconception is that exercise needs to be extremely intense to work at all. People commonly think they are not really working out unless they are sweating profusely and every muscle of their body is aching. This is simply not the case and, in fact, bursts of intense exercise may actually be detrimental for all but the most highly trained athletes.

Most health experts agree that people should work out at about sixty-five to eighty-five percent of their maximum heart rate. This seems to be the training zone in which individuals experience the greatest health benefits, in particular increasing cardiovascular fitness and body fat reduction. It you interrupt your sedentary lifestyle with sudden bouts of high-impact aerobics or sprinting, you might not be helping yourself, and you may be doing more harm than good. Walking at a steady, moderate pace will help you achieve and maintain the ideal heart rate quickly and easily.
