Walking for Health How far to go and how to pace
Dear reader asks if walking counts as exercise and how much is enough. Dr Donohue explains brisk walking at 3.5 mph or 100 steps per minute for about 30 minutes, can be split into sessions, with 10 000 steps roughly equal to five miles, and stresses proper form and gradual buildup. He notes pedometers help track steps. He also advises sit-ups to strengthen abs and addresses knee concerns in step aerobics, emphasizing proper landing and knee angle. Readers can request health newsletters.
