I start walking 3 miles on June 2022 my weight was 145 , now June 2023 my weight is 114, my blood pressure was 140,now 117. Now I walk 6 miles a day, 7 days. I am proud of of myself. If I can do it, you can do it to. Good luck everyone. ❤😂😊 .
I am currently 145 and just started walking for about an hour everyday. Would love any tips or any other advise you have, would love to achieve the same goal!
For those of us fighting high cortisol, walking is THE exercise! I love it. It relieves my anxiety and depression and helps manage my cortisol levels. I can't extolling it enough.
Great news ,smoking is a funny game , you pay a lot of money to give yourself cancer and a early death ,, while the executives of smoke factorys are driving red sports cars ... Never go back , be a true winner ...
I’m petite and started working overnight and gained 20 pounds since my job is a computer job. just started back walking and it feels amazing. I walked 3 days per week. 3-4 miles per each day. Well the more I walk when it time to go I always end up doing two or three more laps. It’s such a good feeling u can’t stop. Going to start listening to music during my walks but I love hearing nature the birds see the butterfly’s. It’s amazing. I also walked a lot after giving birth years ago. Also noticed my dreams are very clear and if I set an alarm my body automatically wakes up a minute before the alarm goes off. Crazy how my body knows what time it is while I sleep. Mood is very light and happy 😊 proud of myself
I aim for daily walks, but sometimes skip a day and I feel it. It’s just a lethargy that comes over me when I don’t get my walk in. Such great medicine and it feels good too.
Walking daily is key for me, like medicine, I must do it daily. Pleasurable to see the world and exercise effortless❤ Nordic Walking, makes it feel like a vacation.
@@goibby1323I'm not the commenter you responded to but I can tell you the benefits. I walk 20k steps a day in the form of 2 x 90 minute walks, the first of which is before I eat breakfast. Along with a calorie deficit (I'm plant exclusive and eat 1500 calories a day and drink only water) I lost 3 dress sizes in 6 weeks dye to walking off the fat. I lost 2 pounds per week before I started walking and still lost 2 pounds every week after I started the walking, so I lost the sizes in inches. In case you aren't aware, 14 pounds tends to equal a size, so the 20k steps a day changed my body to ths extent that it would change if I'd lost 42 pounds in 6 weeks! When walking, there is a massive sense if peace, due to lowered cortisol levels, and emotionally, I've become bulletproof. Nothing upsets me at all anymore, whereas before the walking, I was very easily upset. The reason for this is that exercise without stopping for at least an hour raises a chemical called Beta Endorphin which amongst other things Is responsible for our self esteem. It is also our brain and body's natural pain killer and puts a blanket between us and both emotional and physical pain. There are many more benefits of walking, if you like long videos watch Dr rangan chatterjee interview with Shane omara who is a neurosurgeon and professor.
Great and informative video! I walk every day because that's how I get to and from work. Best decision I've ever made was to walk to work rather than bus. I feel like I start my day better that way.
Thanks so much AGAIN for being so informative and in such a simple way we can all understand and absorbe easily. I’ve been all my life a runner and last year I sustained a brain injury which stopped me from any intense exercise so I started walking more often. Now that I can run again I choose walking 😊
I walk or run my 2 Giant Schnauzers 8 miles a day, I also lift weights, and ride my Mt Bike up in the hills of the San Francisco Bay Area.. Your Video makes me want to walk even more!!!! : ) Thank you!!!! Keep on Walkin'!!!! ; )
Thank you Jessica! I love your channel and services. You have been a part of my journey to get back to health. I agree with you, don't measure it if you can't. Just start five minutes, get off the couch/chair. Thank you for all that you do and using your strengths and talents to help others.
Walking makes part of my daily routine over last years . I use to walk 7 Km / day on average . But for me walking is only fun if i use my ear buds and listening to my favourites music tracks while i am walking . I have around 120 mp3 songs on my Smartphone. My Smartphone with my earbuds are essential while i am walking. Walking everyday was the best thing that happenned to myself over the last years.
I gave up my car 12 years ago & walk miles everyday. I have young kiddies who walk everywhere & you really see the benefits of using their energy walking in the fresh air compared to their peers who are stuck traveling in cars all the time ( usually hyper active & destructive behaviours). We, as a family love & enjoy walking.
Thanks! Great video. I'm 60, started running marathons in 2020 (5 hrs).. in a run local run club and always inviting friends. All are enthusiastic to start but have legit excuses.. "my knees", "I had an injury", "I had surgery", "I'm embarassed"... I then recommend to start walking.. I will share your video!
Hi Jessica, Good motivational talk. Much love to join you, but I am in Bangalore, India. I walk/jog/run/sprint since I had a stent inserted a year ago. I will be 70 in 2023. This is my record on 16 April, on one meal a day, time taken 7hrs 40min without any I’ll effects, attached my figures. & Resting Energy 257 kcal . a 04:27 > Past 7 Days • Active Energy 1,376 kcal • Steps 56,887 steps • Walking + Running Distance 35.4 km Good luck, Bas
I'm in a mich better mood if I walk my dog first thing in the morning. Love to hear the birds, see nature in the morning light, and breath the fresh air. It's a great time to get a Podcast in or spend time with my family. I at the age of 38 have hip that I need to be careful with so walking suits me best than a workout with a lot of kicking or high leg movements.
I've been walking since Feb 2016 and took off 40 pounds first year and just walking daily fine maintenance. Also my body looks different besides the weight loss Also no more blood pressure pills
I’ve been busy during the run up to Christmas, I have 5 adult children some with SEN , one with a baby. I’m basically the Christmas maker! I ve missed dogs walks and walking baby and it’s also darker nights at the moment. I basically ended up very poorly with my Graves’ disease and shut down emotionally and physically on Boxing Day! I went to bed and got up today feeling like I need to get my walks back right now so I’m off out with the dog in a little while! 🙏
I'm just beginning to walk again for short bursts, post spinal surgery last year. I have an issue with one hip so it's walk sit, walk sit. I'm grateful I live by the sea. I actually cycle everywhere and cycling by the sea is my favourite thing to do most of the year. I do get off and walk a bit with my bike also. July 1st is my birthday. My hip is improving with the deep stretching I do daily. Getting there with the aid of my rebounder, water rower, step, weights, resistance bands as well as pilates and dance 😁
I do not stress myself out on an amount I should walk. I’m a very active 60 year old grandmother with arthritis. I strive to walk daily 30-60 minutes. If my day gets too busy, oh well🤷♀️
Totally agree with you. If a day is missed, it's missed...that is such a relaxed attitude. A relaxed attitude keeps you healthy, too. And if a day is missed, there's always the next time 👏
Correction there is a difference between walking outside and inside, indoors that us. All walking is good but outside we also get the benefit of light therapy from daylight and benefits from good fresh air ( more oxygen and negative ions) so outside is better though all exercise of any kind is a benefit there are added benefits from being outside ( treats, SAD, depression, insomnia, in the early morning, sets oir body clock).
2 years ago I came across a video saying your speed of natural walk equals to your brain health and demenia. The video was within an elderly caregiving channel
There are no negative ions in the house. Negative ions are found in the air outside only and despite their name are very good for us. A lot of things are missing inside that are only attainable outside
I love walking since 2019 I've walked alot, but I just recently started tracking distances on March 6th (since March 6 I've accumulated 2,306,642 steps and 1,185 miles) just the other day I did a 100,000 step 51 mile walk I stayed at a consistent 106 steps a minute the whole 15hr and 35 min I only did this because someone said I couldn't do it
Hey Jessica, can you do more postpartum videos for specific parts of your body? I feel like other videos on RUclips are too intense and I don't want to overdo it, and I love your full body video. Thanks!
What do you or your followers wear as good walking shoes? I'd love to find shoes that have cushioned insoles embedded in the shoe -- not memory foam or removeable foam insoles. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated!
7,000 steps in half an hour? Sounds like running to me :). I walk lots (and love it, too :), usually over 9k per day, and I am a relatively fast walker...9k takes me at least 1 hr 15...
How do you manage to notice what’s around you when you have headphones on and you’re listening to the news or a podcast? That’s quite a rare skill. I’d love to be able to do it so could you share some tips? Likewise how do you manage to hear what’s being said and process it while you’re noticing everything around you?
We have increased our steps to 20,000 a day to improve our preretirement health. We all know healthcare costs are one of the biggest burdens in retirement, thus focusing on it before and through retirement will save you a lot of costs.
Walking is great. Frees the mind , you absorb some infrared rays and vitamin D and move. I will also say that sprinting is very beneficial as well and will reduce visceral fat. Walking is easier of course and more peaceful and you wont pull a muscle. I would choose walking and then sprinting but not jogging esp.long distances. The long distances will wear you down. Sprinting is quick. I walk and then do quick sprints...then walk etc. Look up Dr Sean O'Mara on sprinting. He is the visceral fat MRI guy.
Most of us know the benefits of walking but we are not disciplined enough to actually keep the walking routine. I started a challenge on my RUclips channel to walk for at least 3 times of 30 minutes each week. I will make a promise to upload the walk videos on my channel. This example will encourage anyone to walk with me. Let us go.
The reason you didn't stick to it was that you will not have noticed a sufficient difference with the small amount you were doing. The brain is always trying to decide whether something is worth the effort. If it doesn't notice a difference, it will give up. You need to do at least an hour of walking, first thing every morning. That will make you stick to it
On January 5th, 2024, I walked all the way to church since my aunt was sick with a cold and there were no cars available at home. When I was halfway there, my aunt called me and asked me if I was okay. I said, "Yes and I'm almost there." I finally made it to church, even though I was late. I grabbed a bulletin and a card and sat down in the nearest empty pew. My hands were freezing, even though I kept them in my coat pockets. After church, my cousin Joe came up to me and said, "I'm sorry if I missed your calls. I was in church." Then, we all went downstairs to the kitchen to have lunch. When my friend Eleanor saw my salad, she said, "That looks like a yummy lunch." When I was in the bathroom, my other friend Emma, who is also a friend of my mother's, asked me how I got to church. I told her that I walked from my house all the way to church. Emma said, "That's too far, but I'm glad you made it here. Tell Mommy I said hi." I texted Mommy that Emma said hi. During afternoon service, when I was singing a long church song, my mother texted me and said, "Tell Emma that I got a well-paying job and spend hours writing documents." Then, after afternoon service, Joe took his friend Christine to the local nursing home since she is a resident there. Then, I visited Daddy, who is also a resident there. When Joe took Christine to her room, he came to visit Daddy with me. Then, Joe took me home because he saw that I was all tired out from that long walk. Then, my uncle Air took me to night church at my other church
I like to walk for 6 miles, but I do not track step numbers. I also do about 50 pullups, 100 pushups, 100 squats, and some stretching. 70 years of age. Do not use regular drugs or any alcohol. Only eat meat and cruciferous vegetables. Be well. Enjoy your life. After your death you will live again In another body. Yes, reincarnation is a fact. Starts when you inhabit a conceived body. Remember, you are an eternal spirit. You do not have to "travel" from your dead body to your next body. It is as automatic as breathing.
I do pilates reformer almost every day, 6-7 times a week. I love it. When studios (and schools) were closed because of the virus I started walking outside. My daughter had to report to her PE teacher she was doing at least 30 minutes of activity so we walked together for 30 minutes. To be honest I’ve never felt any benefits while walking daily, and that’s why I don’t do it. Not even when walking outside. We have a dog, I’m rarely the one to take her out on walks. When I walk her it’s merely because no else can that particular day and I know it’s important for her. But I don’t feel any benefit whatsoever, so I don’t stick to it. I wish I did.
Your physiology is exactly the same as everybody else's so you'll be getting exactly the same benefits as they do when they walk, irrespective of whether you feel such benefits or not.
You need to walk for a MINIMUM of one hour without stopping (so not with the dog) to raise the chemicals you want to notice. 90 minutes Is more noticeable.
I don't believe people who say that they walk 10 km and more and lose weight. When I walk such a distance I lose control over my appetite. Normally it's enough walk 7-8 km a day to lose weight gradually.
You eat processed foods. Most people are less hungry when they exercise. I still eat the same amount of meals every day. I eat vegetables, complex carbohydrates and only drink water. In 2021 I lost 3 dress sizes in 6 weeks eating 1500 calories of these foods and walking 10 miles every day. The lack of control over your diet is the type of foods you eat. Serotonin is our self control and all processed foods,lower it. Nor eating carbs (meat and only vegetables diet) lacks serotonin too. Serotonin is also responsible for sleep. Which is why the meat only or meat and veg only dieters have insomnia. There's no Serotonin.
You won't lose weight unless you cut calories as well. It's not possible. If you eat the amount of calories suggested for your weight without wanting to lose weight, you won't lose weight. If you found you did, you could just up your food amounts.
i do 15000 steps a day. thats 1 hour in one direction, than pause for 15 minutes, than reverse another 60 minutes. 60 minutes equals 3600 seconds, that means in 3600 seconds i pass, 1.5 meter per second, or 2 steps per one second. thats 7200 steps in one direction. with regard to the calories, thats 0.04 calories per one step, or 40 calories per 1000 steps or, 600 calories per 15000 steps. in 7 days you could loose up to 2 kilograms of weight. plus, never eat after the walking, never, the metabolism kicks in and it cuts off hundreds of grams of fat.
I start walking 3 miles on June 2022 my weight was 145 , now June 2023 my weight is 114, my blood pressure was 140,now 117. Now I walk 6 miles a day, 7 days. I am proud of of myself. If I can do it, you can do it to. Good luck everyone. ❤😂😊

Congratulations. Very good and inspiring to us out here.
I’m starting tomorrow. Thank you
❤
I am currently 145 and just started walking for about an hour everyday. Would love any tips or any other advise you have, would love to achieve the same goal!
Did you also change your diet?
I walk everyday and it’s changed my life
I love walking!! It's my sanity!! I'm 64 & walk 5-6 miles a day!
I'm one year younger, 6 miles takes me 3 hours! 😃
Good to see older people healthy! That’s my goal for when I’m older.
!!!!!!!!!!!!! How much time does that take you ?
Good. I must learn your spirit.
Can you do a few miles for me ...
For those of us fighting high cortisol, walking is THE exercise! I love it. It relieves my anxiety and depression and helps manage my cortisol levels. I can't extolling it enough.
Thanks for mentioning the cortisol
I have high inflammation currently
So I’m gonna walk now
Until I …….

I am 10 days into quitting smoking AND just started making walking a part of my daily routine. Just got through walking 5.5 miles and I feel great!
That’s great. Every time I hear of someone quitting smoking I am really happy for them.
How long does that take you ?
@nancydavieau it varies from 1 and a half to 2 hours. I don't keep track really and I don't speed walk. I just keep a consistent determined pace.
Great news ,smoking is a funny game , you pay a lot of money to give yourself cancer and a early death ,, while the executives of smoke factorys are driving red sports cars ...
Never go back , be a true winner ...
Bravo. Congratulations and wishing you all the best.
I’ve been walking close to every day for 50 years! I’m turning 65 this 4th of July! I’ll be walking till I die😂
Happy solar return in advance, I hope you enjoy your life and stay healthy for a long time with your loved ones dear stranger ❤
Well Happy early Birthday 😊

Walking 10000 steps a day for the past 16 months and the results are amazing
What benefits have you noticed?

I walk around 5 miles everyday, it's great for my physical and mental health
Same here bro

Thank you :) I hope you will do again a challenge now in April 2024 :)

I do not stress myself out on an amount I should walk. I’m a very active 60 year old grandmother with arthritis. I strive to walk daily 30-60 minutes. If my day gets too busy, oh well🤷♀️
Totally agree with you. If a day is missed, it's missed...that is such a relaxed attitude. A relaxed attitude keeps you healthy, too. And if a day is missed, there's always the next time 👏
I walk, run and clap cheeks so I got my exercise in and my heart pumping

I walk everyday for at least an hour with my dog. Quite brisk walking because he is full of energy! It sets you up for the day.
I love walking, I try to go for 30 minutes a day when the weather allows…
I ended up losing over 60 lb just by walking 30 to 40 minutes every day 😊
❤❤❤i lost 20 lbs just by walking outside and walking/ brisk walking on my treadmill
Wow❤
Hopefully this is me. Gonna start walking more.
I’m joining too.
2 years ago I came across a video saying your speed of natural walk equals to your brain health and demenia. The video was within an elderly caregiving channel

Easy stretch and walk daily go slow good for arthritis movement listen to music mind off self😊
I walk for 3 days now 40 - 45 minutes a day I fell better my vertigo lessen...my legs felt stronger little by little
correct
I walk 2 miles a day & feel absolutely knackered afterwards!
I quit drinking Christmas Day 2023. I have been walking 3 miles a day and I feel better than ever
We’ll done! I quit around that time too! Love walking and exercising instead. Here’s to feeling good and taking care of our bodies!! 🎉
I love walking since 2019 I've walked alot, but I just recently started tracking distances on March 6th (since March 6 I've accumulated 2,306,642 steps and 1,185 miles) just the other day I did a 100,000 step 51 mile walk
I stayed at a consistent 106 steps a minute the whole 15hr and 35 min
I only did this because someone said I couldn't do it
Hey Jessica, can you do more postpartum videos for specific parts of your body? I feel like other videos on RUclips are too intense and I don't want to overdo it, and I love your full body video. Thanks!
Dad. Walking is good , for mood as well, I love to walk. 10:01
10k steps means 90 minute with a average speed of 4.8 km/h
What do you or your followers wear as good walking shoes? I'd love to find shoes that have cushioned insoles embedded in the shoe -- not memory foam or removeable foam insoles. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated!

I love walking.. Yet, here in Philly when someone crosses my path while they see me walking is so annoying..
7000 steps is about 75-90 minutes for me
Agree. 7K steps in a half an hour is bullshit. For me, a mile is about 2K steps. A mile takes 15:30. That’s about an hour.
1000 steps on my treadmill takes 8 minutes
Walking also slows down aging
It’s free as well!

You are actually more aware of your surroundings when you can't hear, for safety reasons. It just kicks in automatically.

The brain is always trying to decide whether something is worth the effort. If it doesn't notice a difference, it will give up. You need to do at least an hour of walking, first thing every morning.
That will make you stick to it
@@Goodbyeeveryonehere Tell me ore. What exactly do you mean?
Where do you all walk? I need some suggestions.😊
On January 5th, 2024, I walked all the way to church since my aunt was sick with a cold and there were no cars available at home. When I was halfway there, my aunt called me and asked me if I was okay. I said, "Yes and I'm almost there." I finally made it to church, even though I was late. I grabbed a bulletin and a card and sat down in the nearest empty pew. My hands were freezing, even though I kept them in my coat pockets. After church, my cousin Joe came up to me and said, "I'm sorry if I missed your calls. I was in church." Then, we all went downstairs to the kitchen to have lunch. When my friend Eleanor saw my salad, she said, "That looks like a yummy lunch." When I was in the bathroom, my other friend Emma, who is also a friend of my mother's, asked me how I got to church. I told her that I walked from my house all the way to church. Emma said, "That's too far, but I'm glad you made it here. Tell Mommy I said hi." I texted Mommy that Emma said hi. During afternoon service, when I was singing a long church song, my mother texted me and said, "Tell Emma that I got a well-paying job and spend hours writing documents." Then, after afternoon service, Joe took his friend Christine to the local nursing home since she is a resident there. Then, I visited Daddy, who is also a resident there. When Joe took Christine to her room, he came to visit Daddy with me. Then, Joe took me home because he saw that I was all tired out from that long walk. Then, my uncle Air took me to night church at my other church

Does a slim person need to walk?
I like to walk for 6 miles, but I do not track step numbers. I also do about 50 pullups, 100 pushups, 100 squats, and some stretching. 70 years of age. Do not use regular drugs or any alcohol. Only eat meat and cruciferous vegetables. Be well. Enjoy your life. After your death you will live again In another body. Yes, reincarnation is a fact. Starts when you inhabit a conceived body. Remember, you are an eternal spirit. You do not have to "travel" from your dead body to your next body. It is as automatic as breathing.
I started to walk 10000 steps per day.
walking 30 mins comes to 7000 steps? wow what pace is that? 10km/h?
Love walking 🦘🇦🇺 good luck everyone . Here we have some cool hikes I’m sure like the USA Appalachia etc
Walking is a super power.
1hr walk a day for 1yr is -36lbs of fat
Roughly
Is that what you lost in a year?
@@scaravelliyoga no. That’s just what the math equals
I do pilates reformer almost every day, 6-7 times a week. I love it. When studios (and schools) were closed because of the virus I started walking outside. My daughter had to report to her PE teacher she was doing at least 30 minutes of activity so we walked together for 30 minutes. To be honest I’ve never felt any benefits while walking daily, and that’s why I don’t do it. Not even when walking outside. We have a dog, I’m rarely the one to take her out on walks. When I walk her it’s merely because no else can that particular day and I know it’s important for her. But I don’t feel any benefit whatsoever, so I don’t stick to it. I wish I did.
Your physiology is exactly the same as everybody else's so you'll be getting exactly the same benefits as they do when they walk, irrespective of whether you feel such benefits or not.
You need to walk for a MINIMUM of one hour without stopping (so not with the dog) to raise the chemicals you want to notice.
90 minutes Is more noticeable.
I don't believe people who say that they walk 10 km and more and lose weight. When I walk such a distance I lose control over my appetite. Normally it's enough walk 7-8 km a day to lose weight gradually.
You eat processed foods. Most people are less hungry when they exercise. I still eat the same amount of meals every day.
I eat vegetables, complex carbohydrates and only drink water.
In 2021 I lost 3 dress sizes in 6 weeks eating 1500 calories of these foods and walking 10 miles every day.
The lack of control over your diet is the type of foods you eat. Serotonin is our self control and all processed foods,lower it. Nor eating carbs (meat and only vegetables diet) lacks serotonin too. Serotonin is also responsible for sleep. Which is why the meat only or meat and veg only dieters have insomnia. There's no Serotonin.
3/ 4 mile’s everyday
I love walking but i dont want to lose weight
You won't lose weight unless you cut calories as well. It's not possible. If you eat the amount of calories suggested for your weight without wanting to lose weight, you won't lose weight. If you found you did, you could just up your food amounts.
I am 68, walk about 12-14 KM every day. Sleep like a log without pill.
I walk 2 miles in 30 minutes fast pace.
I walk 4 miles a day and I eat tons of Maple syrup at 62 I'm healthy as a horse
Why do you eat tons of maple syrup? Honestly curious.
You certainly aren't healthy as a horse if you eat tons of maple syrup. It will have effects sooner or later.
i do 15000 steps a day. thats 1 hour in one direction, than pause for 15 minutes, than reverse another 60 minutes. 60 minutes equals 3600 seconds, that means in 3600 seconds i pass, 1.5 meter per second, or 2 steps per one second. thats 7200 steps in one direction. with regard to the calories, thats 0.04 calories per one step, or 40 calories per 1000 steps or, 600 calories per 15000 steps. in 7 days you could loose up to 2 kilograms of weight. plus, never eat after the walking, never, the metabolism kicks in and it cuts off hundreds of grams of fat.
Great job RUclips algorithm. As a quadriplegic I really didn’t need to see this.
Have you seen Joni Eareckson Tada? Very inspirational lady.
7000 steps is closer to an hours walk. Just saying.
One thing to mention, brain relase dopamin after 40 min of walking!
Your beautiful ❤
Walking is great but does not build muscles in arms
WALKING 7000 steps in 30 minutes? I don't think so, that's called jogging. 👎
Exactly. I walk fast and it is certainly not 7000 steps in 30 minutes lol!
@@spirituallysafeat 4mph, 1000 steps takes 8 mins on my treadmill
@@Goodbyeeveryonehere Sounds about the same for me on my daily field walks.
I do 12k a day....
Me too. Minimum, plus a separate structured workout.
7 thousand steps is not enough to lose sufficient fat but it's a good attempt
😮I do 20k steps a day and dropped 3 dress sizes in 6 weeks.
It's lose,not loose. Loose means something that isn't tight.
@@Goodbyeeveryoneherecorrected 🙈 did you have to count your calories ? How was the nutrition side of it
No way I could run 5000 steps in 3pmin Lil
