From scientists to martial artists, I've never heard any healthy/wise/happy person who didn't appreciate walking. Especially if you've ever been unable to walk for any time - that's when you REALLY start appreciating it.

I loved talking a walk before my hip disease. As I've been in my healing journey, walking is one of the most amazing things to me.

[@cristinas4398]

I'm looking forward to being able to walk again. Disease and chronic pain and debilitating low energy have kept me from 95% of all walking for most of the last 8+ years. Praise God and Jesus is healing the things the doctors said were incurable. I will be walking again soon and I will not forget what it's like to live unable to walk.

[@alisevkisavk2748]

I don't have depression, nor do i need to get in better shape. But recently I developed feelings for a girl and found myself in deep thoughts that kind of wore me down. That was the first time I decided to go for a walk just to relieve my mind from something and I must say I felt much better than I thought I would after an hour of walk and I decided to go for a walk every week. Now It's been more than a month, I talked to her about 3 weeks ago and she told me she has no such feelings about me and rather prefers to stay as friends. I can not complain about the answer i recieved but the thoughts in my mind keep taking their toll on me and so far, the best thing that can do to make myself feel better is to go for a walk in the evening, not be concerned about what to do today (cause it is pretty much over) and be grateful to what i already have. Sometimes the small things we are missing seem way bigger than what we already have.

It was like that with my homegirl I never thought I like her till we had a graduation party and got drunk I told her that I love her and always did and she told me no I see you as a brother but it didn’t matter to me cause I had two girlfriends at the time what I did to get my mind off her I told myself I am god greatest creation the amount of females I had coming up to me made me realize why did I even want her

[@chelseashurmantine8153]

Yes, mosquitos love you. Crickets love you. And the plants around you needs your breath to stay alive. So don’t worry, you are very loved by this world. It sounds like you’re wounded but love scars are a beautiful pain we’re brave to experience.

[@kio51423]

Wonderful! I appreciate you sharing this comment on here...I'm basically in the same spot right now, but I'm only about halfway through on this same journey. The other half is still unknown. And while all this is about walking, I actually thought about running through a random location sometime. Guess I should consider walking first, haha 😅. It's interesting how all this has been provided before me just as I was in deep thoughts about it. So thanks for sharing this experience of yours here with us...I'm gonna take that walk and see how things turn out. ✊ Cheers, Friend! 🙌

Spot on brother. I quit drinking last year in May. I walked for 6 months afterward. I cleaned up my entire life.

[@jimmcd5660]

That is awesome, I did the same a bit over seven years ago, walking was my first step (after stopping drinking) getting back to health, then added some pushups, then added some (band assisted at first) pull ups, then graduated to rings, ring dips etc. still try to walk about 5-10 miles every day or every other day, great job, keep it up!

Humbled by the support. Thanks everyone. I still walk about 10k steps a day. It helps with mood and anxiety. I feel better these days at 51 years old than I did at 18. In better condition mentally and physically. Walking and quitting drinking were 2 of the best things I ever did for myself and those around me.

[@MiguelRPD]

When I became a delivery driver. I did 20,000 steps everyday. And overtime It helped cure most of my depression. My previous job was being stuck in a small office. Overtime that was deteriorating me mentally. So I'm glad I got out of that abusive relationship 😂

It was the pacemaker that changed his outlook on health and exercise. He didn't want to pass. I am grateful that he had several healthy years before he passed away.

@@gabl1459 my Dad passed from gastric cancer eleven years ago, but it was the pacemaker that changed his life. He had tried everything to quit smoking, but he knew he could have passed that year.

I absolutely LOVE walking. I did get to a point (when i started the Job i have now) where i began Bussing it Home every day. Two Weeks ago i noticed i was putting on a bit of belly fat, so now i walk to and from Work. 3 miles each way. I realised i missed it so much, and it's warmed my heart to be doing this again. I regularly walk in my local Woods. I'm so lucky to have two Beautiful Woods five mins from my front Door. I camp now and then overnight there, and just find such peace inside myself with this simplicity. I don't believe in organised Religion. I find Nature is all i need. 🙂👍🤝

[@ashtownimore6331]

I love this subject so much because it’s such a simple thing that actually works. For most of human history we’ve walked most places. It gives us time to think and process the stimulus and emotion we have that have queued up. Since our mind is so engaged all the time nowadays, we build up this queue of feelings and things that have happened where we have given ourselves little time to process them I find when I let myself be bored (even though it’s painful) is where I have the most clarity. Thanks for making this video!

[@dr.bandito60]

I started walking about an hour daily five years ago for my lower back issues. I was 28, living at my parents, struggling and depressed, with no clear ambitions. Since then, I have completely transformed my path in life. I feel much happier in my life now. I agree that it’s the contemplative nature of walking that helped me change. It took a lot of processing and planning to find my way forward. Walking is a great support for that process.

_Solvitur Ambulando_ is a Latin phrase which means "it is solved by walking". The phrase means that sometimes the best way to find a solution is sometimes to take a walk and think about it.

Thank you for this video, it came at a great time. I have been through 18 years of intense caregiving, working, launching kids into adulthood. My husband was laid off nearly a year ago and I am still working. I just came through a major project and am utterly exhausted and ready to just walk away from everything, except I know I really don't want to do that, I just need a break. This is an important reminder to make times for my walks, not just for the physical benefits, but also to check in with myself in a non-distracted setting.

I’ve been following your free plan, and it’s been incredibly helpful, especially as someone starting from zero with no core strength, core compression strength, or handstand experience. Your tutorials have made a huge difference for me!I recently saw you performing V-sits, L-sits, and handstands in one of your videos, and I’d love to see tutorials for these exercises on your website. They would be really useful for beginners like me who are working to build core strength and learn these movements.Also, I really appreciate the dips tutorial, but I noticed it only covers parallel dips. It would be amazing if you could add advanced variations like archer dips and other progressions. I’m eager to take my training to the next level!Lastly, if you have any new tutorials or exercises of your choice that you’d like to add, I’d be thrilled to try them out. Your teaching style is great, and I love discovering new exercises through your content.Once again, thank you for all the work you do.

Love it... In the city where I live, it is small, but we are in a free zone so cars are very cheap and EVERYONE has at least 2 cars in their homes... This This year I started studying at university, and to find parking I had to leave at least an hour and a half before, also to make sure I didn't run into traffic....But as the semester progressed, I started to get stressed, I didn't have enough time and energy for my other physical activities, One day I decided to walk to the university, it took me 30 minutes and I began to notice that it helped me feel good, 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the evening to return home. I like to skate, but there is no bike lane culture here, but that is another activity that I enjoy doing on the beach...rolling.Having wheels under your feet makes "walking" magical and entertaining, I recommend it. Thanks for your videos I've been doing my calisthenics progressions based on your program hehe thanks thanks ❤❤

[@BearfootGhost]

I walked myself through the hardest times in my life. Sometimes I walked for hours, even all day or night, with that much walking you do lose weight, partially because you don't eat while you're walking. I don't recommend walking that much but it helped me get through hard times.

It sounds like you need to step back and evaluate what you want in life. Focus on the things that are most important to you(set a max of about 3) and make a plan on how to get to them one by one. I usually find it helpful to make a physical list(on a paper or poster) and stick it next to my bed so that I have a reminder of what I'm working towards each day. It's important not to give up, sometimes it takes weeks of work to just barely start seeing results(depending on what your goal is). Making sure to give yourself at least an hour each day where you shut off external stimuli and self reflect is essential as well. (whether that is stretching, meditation, or walking like in this video)

Quit drinking a week ago. Started walking to work and back! 7.6 km in total! The good thing is that i'm not overweight. I even dropped 4 kilos. 75kg at 183cm. That's a good starting point for building strenght and get in shape at 50! Starting with home workouts! 👊💪

My running has been (I hope, temporarily) put on hold by an injury, but I can still walk, and do, every day. I decided that if I am unable to ever run again, as long as I can still walk, I can be perfectly satisfied with that. I love walking.

Dude, you are the first one who congratulates me to be still staying alive, and you have no idea how much that's mean to me. Even if that was just a statement to the general viewer.

During the first month of COVID it didn't go out of my apartment at all. My first walk then was to the nearest drug store which was in 15 mins. I got there out of breath and with sore knees. It scared me and I started walking at least every other day. Four years later walking is my favorite thing to do 😊 best time to be with myself ❤

Our bodies seem to just adjust to whatever whether sedentary or an active lifestyle.
