For anyone looking to lose weight or just generally increase their activity levels be more active, going for daily walks is an extremely underrated method of doing so.

Many often opt to go for runs instead, which is naturally much more effective than walking. However, its increased intensity means people often get burned out quicker, and ultimately abandon their fitness regime as a whole, going on to relapse back into a sedentary lifestyle. Walking, on the other hand, allows one to stay consistent for longer and reap more of the benefits in the longer term.
