Getting Back To It

If you have been sick or returning to walking after an absence, here are some strategies for getting started again:

1.  Alternate time walking briskly with time at a slower pace.  If you’re fit enough to walk for 30 minutes, start off by alternating between two minutes of brisk walking and two minutes of slow walking for 30 minutes.  Over time, increase your brisk walking intervals by one minute at a time until you’re back to your pre-absence pace for the entire 3 minutes.  To increase the difficulty from that point, add your brisk walking time in five minute increments.

2.  Make sure to incorporate strength training into your exercise routine.

3.  Start slowly.  If you’re too winded to talk out loud to a walking partner (or yourself), you’re going too fast.
