Week 7 - Injuries 

 

Day 50 - Night Walking

Night walking requires additional safety measures. First, you need to make sure you can be seen by any autos you may encounter. Drivers often don't think that anybody would be out after dark. You may also want to take additional personal safety precautions, and carry a flashlight so you can see holes and road hazards.

 

Today's Walk: 

40-75 minute walk in the fat-burning zone at 60-70% of your maximum heart rate. Finish your walk at a moderate pace with 5 minutes of cool down at a very easy pace.

 

Day 51 - Walking in The Rain



You aren't made of sugar and you won't melt in the rain - in fact, you are drip-dry. With the right gear, you won't even get wet. Yes, you need to avoid walking in gully-washers that threaten to sweep you into the storm drains. But you can go walking and singing in the rain. Or - find a rain-avoidance route in a mall or on a treadmill.

 

Today's Walk: 

45-75 minute walk in the healthy heart zone 50-60% of your maximum heart rate. Finish your walk at a moderate pace with 5 minutes of cool down at a very easy pace.

Day 52 - Winter Walking

There's cold and then there's cold. For cold temperatures, you can keep walking by wearing layered clothing and a hat and gloves. Take extra caution around snow and ice. But if a real cold snap hits, or if the streets aren't clear, then you may need to take up indoors walking on a track or treadmill or in a mall.

Today's Walk: 

40-75 minute walk in the fat-burning zone at 60-70% of your maximum heart rate. Finish your walk at a moderate pace with 5 minutes of cool down at a very easy pace.

Day 53 - Walking in the Heat

Walking in hot weather can be dangerous as well as unpleasant. Drinking enough water is the key, as well as searching out shaded routes and picking the cool of the day when possible. Know the signs of heat sickness and stay cool in the summertime.

 Today's Walk:

40-75 minute walk in the healthy heart zone 50-60% of your maximum heart rate. Finish your walk at a moderate pace with 5 minutes of cool down at a very easy pace.

Day 54 - Walking in the Wind

The best strategy is to walking into the wind at the start of your walk so you can finish with the wind at your back. In high winds, avoid areas with trees or make it an inside-workout day.

Today's Walk: 

40-75 minute walk in the fat-burning zone at 60-70% of your maximum heart rate. Finish your walk at a moderate pace with 5 minutes of cool down at a very easy pace.

Day 55 - Whatever Weather 
Whatever the Weather
Everybody talks about the weather but nobody does anything about it. Or do you? Do you let the weather keep you from exercising? Does a nice day make you get out and do more?

Today's Walk: 

40-75 minute walk in the healthy heart zone 50-60% of your maximum heart rate. Finish your walk at a moderate pace with 5 minutes of cool down at a very easy pace.
