Perfect physical activity
What would happen if I told you that there was an activity that combined physical aptitude, education, socialization and work? It sounds too good to be true, huh? It may be impossible … but this perfect activity exists and is called walking.
If you prefer this episode while walking, you can Find it here. I think you will really have an idea of what I am going to talk about if you experience it.
Why walk is perfect for multitasking
Walking is such a healthy and simple activity that it keeps it in motion and, when planning correctly, it can help you achieve a lot and do a lot. This blog is dedicated to all the wonders of walking, and if it seems that I am a little obsessed, it is because I am!
When I walk, I am usually doing many things, such as having a meeting with a colleague, listening to an audiobook (at this time it is indomitable by Glennon Doyle in audible), obtaining updates on the member to a podcast or speaking from a podcast. Sometimes I’m just responding to your DMS.
He will see, I arrive in Multitasa and I am common terrible in multitasking. But here there is another reason why I like this activity.
5 things to do while walking
I see walking as a form of steps collection. The steps are an artificial form of measurement of ordered levels, qualifies the thermogenesis of the non -exercise activity. In simple English, that means that he is burning calories without really exercising. Magic, right?
The steps are an incredible tool to keep burning calories without being in a real gym or doing real training. I like to include a daily objective of 8,000 steps per day for all my clients, since it helps them burn calories with them feeling the fatigue that comes with career or Hiit training. If you need help to get to so many steps every day, see this resource I did for you, “7 ways to increase your steps count”.
Whether your objectives are weight loss or muscle gain, I want your body to move, since this is an important component of a healthy functional body. I will talk more about the benefits in a moment, but I feel that this gives them enough juice to continue reading, I know he does it for me!
Number #1: Be productive while walking
Think of all zoom calls that has had the leg last year. Not your time did not have your time better, if I could squeeze a small walk while they continue?
Let’s be realistic, sometimes you are not contributing or participating in a call, you are just there to listen to updates about the tasks of all others. Maybe it is expected to speak at first and that’s all, you’re quiet during the next hour.
This will require some planning, but finding when a call that won to take notes of duration and walk while happening is scheduled. Or you can request to record the call, so if there is something you would like to happen later, you are available for you.
If you are a university student and you have a class that you have to listen to, one that cannot not be demanded that you feel while continuing, that is also an opportunity to slip on a walk. My personal training exam was 45 minutes long, and you can bet that I was on a running tape listening to them. Super efficient!
Number #2: Listen podcasts and audio chefs while walking
If you want to expand your horizons and learn something new, there is a podcast for every thesis day! Seriously, just try to look for a podcast about parenting or gardening, for example, whatever you are curious these days and see what arises.
There are also a lot of comedy programs that you can tune in with a laugh! The same goes for the audiobooks: my goal this year is to read at least 1 book per month, and the way I get the thesis book is to download them as audiobooks and if you are lucky, the author is reading the desire, so you get it.
The other great thing to listen to an audio episode cook or podcast is that if the topic is interesting, it could make a full hour before just looking at his watch or track tracker. So investigate a little about your interests, whether cooking and baking, sports or interior design, and you will find the appropriate podcast for you.
Here are some suggestions if you want a head to begin in some fascinating podcasts: there are “Ted Talks daily” or “unlock” of Brene Brown.
Number #3: Put a friendly with a friend
If a leg or week is a leg while talking with a relative, you can always call yourself while you are out to walk the same! I always listen to people to talk about not finding time to communicate and talk to their loved ones, so this could be their opportunity.
Instead of walking around the room while talking with her best childhood friend, she could put her 10 thousand steps of an hour, call them at the same time. Those children of calls always leave a spring in my step, especially when I can reach some I spoke in a long time.
Number #4: A walk can activate inspiration
It is true, I cannot tell you the number of times I would be walking, sometimes in full silence and I think of an idea for a program or episode of podcast or bulletin. There is even a study that observed the productivity of 4 people before and after a walk: those who walked, especially outdoors, had a better flow of ideas compared to those locked in the office.
It is also a good idea to suggest a walk if you and your team are trapped in a problem at work. Everyone can clear their heads and become stronger and better!
Number #5: Listen to music while walking
Any genre of music can totally boost its endorphins. Whether you like to rock with country songs, old, pop or the last Arab music, any reproduction list can completely rejuvenate your mood and become this super productive person, super fast and super ambitious!
The music can pump you to complete the last section of a walk, sometimes you are in 9 thousand steps and you only need an additional push to take you to 10, then when you adjust your favorite playlist, raise the volume and reach the finish line!
Here is a Link to my playlist. I filled it with more than 70 or my favorite energy pumping songs!

Gold nuggets
Ready to walk? Here are some gold nuggets that you can use to make this a daily habit:
1. Keep your shoes, jacket and headphones next to the by to make walking more convenient.
2. Make sure your headphones are loaded every night so you don’t have to go without them.
3. Choose a different route every few days! It can become repetitive on the same way every day.
4. Walking walking with a strength training program! So special If you have certain objectives, you must put muscle training as a priority. You can stay healthy and active walking every day, but if you are looking for muscle and lose body fat, you will need to pump for at least 3 days a week.
