[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love walking . I try to get 15000 steps daily although that largely depends on my day and the weather. I agree it’s amazing exercise. However, I don’t think it’s enough. As we get older we need weight bearing exercises and strength training is essential [/quote] You do realize that walking is a weight bearing exercise? Your entire body weight it being borne by your skeleton - so the heavier you are, the more weight bearing it is. Walking is usually listed first by medical professionals as options for building bone density - it’s free, it’s a skill most humans have acquired and it is difficult to do it wrong and hurt yourself. [/quote] If you want to make a real impact on your bones while walking, wear a weighted vest. [/quote]
