Weight loss specialists often advise patients who want to walk to lose weight to aim to move for 30 minutes at least four or five times a week. Many people are able to cover about 2 miles (about 3 km) in this amount of time, and the calorie burn is significant, too.
It is recommended that in order to fight off weight gain and maintain a healthy heart, people should aim for 10,000 steps per day. 10,000 steps per day, for a person with an average length stride of 2.5 feet, is roughly 5 miles. This daily distance is enough for someone who eats healthily and in moderation, but if you overeat you may find yourself putting on extra pounds over the years even if you adhere to a habit of taking this many steps daily. If youâre looking to lose weight, you may need to take even more steps each day.
