Do anyone like walking? I think all of us like walking. Walking is the easiest activity and we all do this everyday. It's like simple aerobic and I believed that we do it well.

And I will post about the benefit of walking. It mean not simple walking, like you move 3 meters from your position to another place.But we do serious walking that give us benefit from this activity. We have to doing this consistent. The better result if we doing this activity regularly , we have schedule and we have to keep promised to do it well.

- Fast walking start from 20 until 25 minutes each day is the best condition for our heart and lungs.
Here's the benefit of walking, like :

I enjoyed reading your hub. I love walking. I used to run, but I got frequent injuries. I live at the bottom of a hill that leads to a park, so it’s very convenient for me to walk uphill frequently, which keeps me fit. I also walk to stores and only drive when it is essential. Walking is such a versatile activity – it can be slow and meditative or fast and hard. Thank you for describing the health benefits of walking.

Walking is extremely good for health. Thanks for giving the facts about walking. It may induce many persons to go for a walk everyday. It is nice hub.
It is very essential blog as many of us have forgotten walking due to the usage of cars and two wheelers. Walking is an excellent exercise which helps to burn the fat and keep us healthy. The hub is very informative too.
Nice Hub on walking prasetio30. It's my favourite exercise, after swimming, as going to the gym bores me rigid! I also have never understood those people who stand in bus queues for ages to go a couple of stops - they could have walked it in half the time!
Very good hub. I like to walk, and do it almost everyday. The fact about the prevention of a stroke was new to me. Thanks for sharing, keep up the good work.

thanks to all. We have to support our self to do somethings. "walking" is a simple sport, anyone can do this sport.But sometimes "lazy" is the bad factor to do something. Start from it little by little until we usually doing this. I send my great appreciation to all of you who concern your healthy.
Very good! My husband and i walk regularly and we know we are doing the right thing to stay fit. People should realize how important it is for their health, it can be fun and even inexpensive!
Again, very good Hub, thank you.
Hi prasetio30, great hub. Walking is really beneficial in many ways to people, but people like me are a bit lazy when it comes to walking. However, i walk up and down my stairs not less than 20 times each day. I'm always restless, thats why. Does that count for walking ? LOL!!!!
I still walk a lot as neither Hubby nor I drive. However I do not walk as much as my knees are getting a little dodgy. Do love walking though
