"Research shows that walking just 30 minutes a day can boost your cardiovascular fitness, strengthen bones, reduce excess body fat, and increase muscle endurance and strength. It's also a preventive measure against health conditions like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and some cancers, as well as supporting mental health and banishing seasonal blues. And during the cooler months, you can walk further without overheating."
"Research shows it's common for many people to gain weight during the cooler months, due to increased calorie intake, decreased physical activity, and/or a lack of energy due to shorter, darker days. And we tend to hold onto that extra weight throughout the following year. That's why autumn is a great time to start a new or more rigorous exercise regimen. Here are 5 of the best exercises for the fall season."
Many people gain weight during cooler months because of increased calorie intake, reduced physical activity, and lower energy from shorter, darker days, and that weight often persists into the next year. Autumn provides cooler conditions suitable for beginning or intensifying an exercise routine to counter seasonal weight gain and maintain energy. Low-impact activities like walking and hiking offer cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, metabolic, and mental-health benefits; walking 30 minutes daily improves fitness, bone strength, body composition, and muscle endurance. Post-meal walks can boost metabolism, and hiking adds strength and balance through varied terrain and carrying a backpack.
