Here are a few useful tips
- People who currently take no exercise will gain most from any increase in physical activity.
- If you’re not in the habit of taking regular exercise, start slowly, enjoy being out and about, and gradually build up to the recommended 30 minutes walking a day.
- Drink a glass of water before and after you walk and don’t forget, wear good comfortable shoes.
- Walk safely – observe the Highway Code and wear bright, reflective clothing. · Remember, loose clothing is more comfortable and in winter, add light layers rather than thick chunky clothes. It’s much better
- If you have a history of heart trouble or other significant medical illness, talk to your doctor before you start.
- Stop, if you have unusual symptoms, such as chest pain, breathlessness or dizziness and consult your doctor.
