    When I was homeless in a northeastern city during the winter I did 30,000+ steps a day just to keep warm. The most I ever did was 54,000. Best shape I was ever in.

    I started walking about 2 weeks ago at 321 lbs. I initially could only walk 10 minutes at a brisk pace before experiencing pain in my right hip. I would take brakes but make sure to get my 10k steps a day. Now I'm 305 and can do 2 hours straight (10-12k steps)with no pain at all. When I began, I would listen to audio books that entertained me, now I listen to books that expand my knowledge. It's fun.

    I’m happy to see other people do this! I’ve been a distance runner for 7 years now. By walking to the gym, running 10 miles, walking at work, and walking home I average about 30,000 steps every day. I usually hit 110-115 miles a week. It’s the lifestyle that I love!

  • @deepakrama
    @deepakrama 4 ปีที่แล้ว +349

    I did 26k steps a day for about 10 days and it definitely had great results so I can confirm everything you saw in your 7 day challenge. Walking also tends to be a great low impact exercise and when you keep it low impact it will burn fat for energy rather than glucose. Also keeping it low impact will keep your cortisol levels down to improve that fat burning and reduce fat storage. Walking is the best exercise.

    About two months ago, I decided to change my lifestyle. I stopped eating like crap and drinking soda and I started walking at least 10k steps a day. I've lost 24 pounds in those 2 months! The weight is just falling off me and it's great. I'm about 40 lbs overweight right now so I'm hoping to keep the momentum going. Walking is so addicting! I love being outside and having my "me time". I love it and it's such an easy exercise. I spend about 2 hours outside walking everyday in the morning. It has to be first thing in the morning or it's too hot outside. I live in Texas so you can imagine the heat and humidity.....😂😂 I'm drenched in sweat from head to toe by the end of my walk. It's all uphill then downhill, rinse and repeat so it's pretty strenuous but still relatively easy.

    I do approximately 45.3k steps per day for 5 days of the week at work since it requires me to walk overnight. Most people I work with can't do what I do, so I always get overtime, thus putting in more steps for the week. It's definitely a rewarding feeling when I get the day off, and most people would argue that I should quit, but honestly, I enjoy it. I can see most people will have a problem with it.

    Great video! I started doing 10 miles/day in quarantine for the first 45 days. Then I couldn’t move for two days! Just super tight (did no stretching). I started stretching and ended up doing 13.5 mile average days for the last 30 something days. I haven’t quite reached 100 mile weeks but I’ve gotten close at around 94 mile weeks. It’s been challenging! I was feeling incredibly tired, more so than I realized possible. I haven’t been commuting to the office so that’s 2 hours a day I found and the gyms are closed so that’s 1.5 hours a day plus staying in the house all day is not something to look forward to lol. I also walked rain or shine which is more of a mental game then I realized. It’s been fun and challenging and needless to say I’m doing yoga now in order to keep the mileage up! Stay safe brother!

    I remember doing a challenge of walking 10 miles a day for 30 days back in the early 2ks, the author of the book claimed you could lose 8 pounds of fat in that time span without dieting. I did the whole 30 days, one day i would walk twelve miles other days eight, i just had to put in the miles by the end of the week. I lost exactly eight pounds and dropped an entire size from my waist area which was very noticeable for just losing 8 pounds, in the process sadly i developed plantar fasciitis despite changing foot inserts, sneakers ,etc.

    Rain shouldn't have stopped you from getting your outside walk. I find rain doesn't bother me at all unless it's windy. For outside exercise, I find wind to be the only real constraint, unless it's just pouring down rain or a blizzard. Today, I did an 8 miles forest trail (and a four mile walk to get to the trail) in the rain here in New York. Sure, I got wet, but it was OK. Just took a nice hot shower when I got home.

    I challenged myself to walk less than 100 steps per day during quarantine for 9 months straight, and I fully completed this personal challenge averaging 92 steps/day. It was really quite easy with the only real set back coming in the 3rd month when I accidentally walked 126 steps one day when I had trouble parking by the front door of Church’s fried chicken.

    Since 2015 I have walked on average 15,000 steps per day and not changed my diet. originally it was all at sea level later at altitude. Over that period I went from 106 kgs down to 84 kgs and it’s now settled at 88kgs . I am just under 6 feet 2 and now 60 years old . The biggest weight loss was at the very beginning. I also had a long standing knee injury which I got skiing and it didn’t really stop me . Frozen veg when I stopped . My tip is get up early and do it first thing . Originally I lived in a very hot place so I started at 6.00 am everyday

Considering I’m mostly sedentary at other times, I was wondering if I’ll be too tired or in pain. But surprisingly I was completely alright at end of each day. But then, I came back to my town and went back to being a couch potato, doing 500 steps a day 😔

    I got a walking under desk treadmill about 7 weeks ago. I have averaged about 75 miles per week for 7 weeks now. I have lost about 16 pounds (from 194 to 178). My height started at 5'11" and I assume it is still the same. I realize that a treadmill walk at perfectly level ground is not the same as a "real world" walk so I wouldn't equate the 75 miles per week as the same as 75% of your 100 mile week, but it's a good fraction nonetheless. And I've been able to do it for 7 weeks now. I am not entirely sure it is sustainable because I have started to develop a sore achilles tendon in one foot, I might not be able to do this pace indefinitely, or maybe my body will catch up. I'm hoping for the latter.
