Making a Change4Life doesn’t need to be<br />

difficult. With a little help,<br />

it can be really rewarding and fun!<br />

Why walking is good for you:<br />

■ Good for bones and muscles: walking is<br />

good for bone density and posture and helps<br />

keep bodies lean and supple.<br />

■ Builds up stamina: walking gets your whole<br />

body used to being healthy.<br />

■ Burns calories: a brisk walk can burn<br />

calories and help keep you trim. <strong>The</strong> brisker<br />

the better but you should still be able to hold<br />

a conversation.<br />

■ Helps beat stress: walking can make you<br />

feel good, especially if you’re out and about in<br />

surroundings that you love.<br />

■ Sociable: take a friend or family and have a<br />

natter while you walk.<br />

Tips for walking:<br />

■ Get off the bus a few stops earlier<br />

■ Bring baby along too and grab the buggy<br />

■ Get a pedometer to count your steps<br />
