Walking is a great way to lose weight & increase metabolism before the wedding. There are some strategies that will increase the amount of calories burned, & bring you to your weight-loss goal more quickly. Most people walk about 2 to 2.5 miles per hour. By aiming to take 32 steps in 15 seconds, you will be walking 4 mph & increasing the calories burned by 59%.

Music has been shown to make exercise easier & help people stick with it longer. Some studies have shown that people who listen to music travel from from 11% to 24% farther without even realizing it… Some people who exercise to music, walk for a couple of songs, then jog one song, & then walk a couple. These occasional bursts of higher-intensity exercise produces nine times better fat-loss results.

Indoor walking videos are popular alternative for losing weight. Most experts suggest five minutes of warm up, 30 minutes of indoor walking moves, & another five minutes for cool down. The exercises are as simple as side steps, kicks, & knee lifts. For a high intensity burst, raise your knees as high as you can for one to two minutes while doing knee lifts. Keep your arms pumping while doing side steps to make your workout more intense.

Using a pedometer that counts your steps gets most people to walk up to fifty percent more than they normally would. There are also walking poles available that are designed to work your upper body & burn more calories. In addition, you can purchase one pound shoe weights, that are attached to any laced shoes & increase the intensity of your walking workout.
