With my eight point plan, you are guaranteed to slim and tone up in just four weeks.
My Eight Point Plan For Weight Loss Success Through Walking:- 1 - Fast short steps will help you reach your daily quota faster, so try and change the way that you walk to reflect this.
2 - Stride out with your head and shoulders relaxed, and pump your arms to work your heart and burn more calories.
3 - Walk fast enough to work up a sweat, but not so fast that you haven't enough breath left to hold a conversation.
4 - Walk on different kinds of surfaces.
Uneven surfaces such as woodlands or fields will use different muscles, so you will tone up faster.
Also if you walk up and down hills, you will help burn up the flab faster.
5 - Once you start to feel fitter, use small bottles of water as hand weights while you walk.
These will help you burn up to an extra 200 calories per thirty minute session.
It will also help to tone your arms, shoulders and back muscles.
6 - Change one thing a day to make sure that you stick to your walking routine.

7 - Buy a pedometer to count the number of steps that you take each day.
They are not terribly expensive.
8 - Walking is every bit as aerobic as running or a conventional gym class, so make sure therefore that you warm up and cool down with some gentle stretches with each session.
Take deep breaths to bring down your heart rate, and bend from the waist to ease out your spine.
