The Value of WalkingWhen we are learning to propel ourselves forward as a baby one of the first reflexes we develop is called the cross crawl reflex.Basically when you move your leg forward your arm swings backwards, it optimizes our motion, requires a full firing of the nervous system and utilizes pretty much the entire musculoskeletal-skeletal complex to work.Committing to a walking program will improve your cardiovascular health, increase your immune system and make you a more coordinated human being.How do you start? Put one foot in front of the other every day for 15 minutes to start if you have been sedentary. Do this for a week and then add 5 minutes per week. Once you hit 40-60 minutes a minimum of 4-6x per week congratulations you have hit an optimal frequency for health. If you want to get crazy and shoot for performance strive for 7x per week for 60 minutes and/or add in a long trek on the weekend.Add a walking program to your healthy lifestyle and I guarantee you the results you feel and see will be nothing short of amazing.
