Tips for Healthy Walking

Plan when you will walk each day: It will help you develop a regular schedule and avoid excuses for not walking.
Walk with a partner: You will be less likely to skip your walk and it will make the walking more fun.
Keep an exercise log: It will help you keep track of your exercise progress.
Participate in a walking program: Healthcare sponsored walking programs offer many benefits which include achievement awards, educational programs, social events and access to specialized assessment such as gait evaluation, assessment for lower extremity disorders such as pronation, muscle imbalance and leg length inequality which all of which could lead to chronic joint pain.
