Pick Up the Pace

If you’re walking to lose weight, you can pick up the pace if you walk the right way. Here’s how:

1. Stand straight and keep yourself centered between your front and back legs with each step.
2. As you step reach with the heel of the leading foot and push off with the toes from the trailing foot.
3. Tighten your buttocks to improve momentum.
4. Let your arms swing naturally.
5. Concentrate on walking. If you don’t concentrate, you naturally slow down.
