Walking back to healthiness – week 1

This week I have been trying to walk a bit more than usual.  I have a little red car that I am ashamedly quite attached too and find v convenient to dash about in. But I need to lose weight and the environmant and my pocket demands less ‘littles dashes ‘ about in my car too. I’ve refound my walking feet .

This week I have walked to the canal with my kids and fed the ducks, I’ve walked to the shops and to the library and  I have walked round the park wherever and whenever I can I have walked  The fresh air and the striding out have all felt really good. May not sound much but it’s better than normal

I’ve been wearing my funky EasyTones from Reebok to try and add to the muscle toning. They make me look lik a serious walker (Benefit number 1) and they make me feel like I am getting an extra workout for no extra effort (Benefit number 2)

Heres a bit of informtion on Reebok EasyTones and what they do :

Compared to a typical foam based walking shoe, EasyTone footwear with balance ball inspired technology generated 28% more gluteus maximus muscle activation, 11% more hamstring activation, and 11% more calf activation.  Essentailly they firm up your bun as you walk!
