Walking, drinking water, breathing. How did we forget this 😂
depression. life. anxiety. mental disorders. and people. this is how we forget.
edit: this was over a year ago. it wasn’t meant to be taken so seriously. take a breathe and move on or try taking your own advice. you’ll be a lot less offended :)
I know!! Right?
Yes, it's dumb. Like some people lost their senses or have nothing else to share. They could also just stop posting and live.
@@ibitha that is mainly something what is created by following other people's advices!
😂🤡
Every morning at 6am! For about 8 months now. Haven’t missed a day and it’s been life changing.
Why so early?
@@Staroy My internal clock wakes me up at 5:00Am. Love getting up early and starting my day in an invigorating way. Lots of naturesque views where I am here in the Pacific Northwest.
@@BKDAYZ Circadian Rhythm?
@@shadow392 very much so.
@@BKDAYZ Yeah 6am walks are very peaceful. I am in the PNW as well and morning walks are wonderful and quite
This dudes not walking he’s swaggering 😁
No, just pimping or styling! Lol.
Is that theres always a camera on him so now he just does it even without one
“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.”
2 Peter 3:9 NIV
ROMANS 10:9-11 “If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame”
Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
“For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.””
Luke 19:10
God wants us to believe in His One and Only Son, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, who died for our sins :D When we truly believe in our hearts that Jesus is the Son of God, who died for our sins so we could have eternal life with God, we are saved from the eternal fire and have eternal life in Christ Jesus!! 💖 May God bless you all! ❤️🕊
I was always told growing up that I have a swagger. Well turns out my legs are different lengths, so I naturally walk like a pimp😂
I swear
I’ve been walking 20k steps a day for the last 32 days. It’s been a game changer. I’m down 20lbs and I’ve finished about 15 audio books during that time. Haha it’s been great.
How long does 20k steps tae on average out of your day? Is that 20k the total for the day, or only during intentional walks? Thanks,
@@JamesTudsbury well I typically go for an hour to an hour and a half walk in the morning before I head to work. While I’m at work I try to get at least one walk break of 10-15 minutes. Then in the evening I will walk about an hour sometimes more just around my house. I have an open concept house so I can get a good 50-60 step circle and I just don’t sit down (other than dinner) until I have finished. I get the rest of the steps during my normal day. So maybe 2-3 hours of walking on top of my daily activities. But the perk of my indoor walking is I still get time with the family I’m just not sitting on the couch.
@@JamesTudsbury I have not done 20k in one walk yet. I think 14k is the most I have recorded in one walk.
The key to getting steps throughout the day is to just not sit down
@@TFlip04 thanks, I try 1 90min walk a day after lunch, only count those steps, not all my steps in a day, it's about 9000 steps max. I might add something extra in the evening to boost the effects then. Hit a plateau with weight.
That's amazing. The basics always lead to great results. walk everywhere :)
I walk every morning for 2 hours, leave home at 5:30am and watch the sun comes up, and 3 times a week i will end my morning walk at the park exercise corner and practice calisthenics, I have not had cold or fever for the last 5 years.
Are you male or female? How do you overcome safety issues walking in the dark at that hour?
Wow, that's awesome discipline.
@@ana419 believe me 5:30 is not more risky than other parts of the day. I don't think someone is at 5:30 waiting to make something bad to you ;-)
@@krewetkaaaa I agree, unlikely, but it's still dark and no one is out. If something did happen, no one would see or be around to call for help.
How long do you do calisthenics?
I started walking a lot in my teens. Not sure why I even started but it really helped my mental health. My favorite thing I have done was go for an hour walk every day for a year straight. No matter how hot, cold, rain or snow. Doing the walk every day no matter what seriously made me appreciate life in a very different and unique way.
I love walking. It’s a great way to connect with yourself and nature. I also see it as a way to disconnect from technology.
ah that's a big one! I often put my phone on airplane mode if I have it with me:)
Me too
Same! I never take my phone with me. I don't want to be connected to anything but nature and myself when I'm walking.
I walk for one hour four days a week for the last at least 20 years. It is my lifeline. I connect to nature, myself and my God.
Walking is the most underrated thing ever
Walking is my main exercise of Choice for over 20 years. It just keeps everything together
So I’ve been tracking my steps now for over 6 years and it has changed my entire life for the better. I started out small just going for one walk everyday, fast forward to now and I am up to 20 plus miles a day 6 days a week. I lost 96lbs and have kept it off for over 5 years now. So many people who know me think that I am crazy, and others that don’t know me think that I am lying. I’m 44 years old and in the best shape that I have been in for two decades. Walking is amazing and I want to try to walk the longest walk in the world from Cape Town, South Africa to Magadan, Russia. It is a 14,000 mile walk 👍
I would love to join you.
I walk every morning, from 3am to 6am
I then go back to bed 🛌 for a good rest after having my healthy breakfast.
I I’ve how my body reacts after my 🏃🏿♀️ Jamaican 🇯🇲 l’m 70yrs got tired of going to the gym, on a regular basis.
I’ve been walking 2 miles per day for 2 months every day without exception. I can feel improvements in my concentration and endurance in other movements as well.
Yes love that!
I walk 90 min every day! I love my walks!
I walk for 4 hours a day.
When do you y'all find the time?
@@iLuvTheMostHigh at what time?
@@iLuvTheMostHigh Are you a postman?
@Fretto-xl9bh that was a year ago! Here in rural places the postman often walks around the villages rather than use a van. It was a genuine question.
I'm in love with walking! It gives me so much energy, I'm always singing it's praises. I walk a minimum of 10 miles a day & I've lost 60lbs without stepping in a gym
You go girl
So you walk 3 hours a day?
never disregard the basics 🌞
I highly approve of this message. 💯
Within a year, walking has changed my body composition greatly. Unplanned, I just did it to get out of my four walls and get fresh air. Next thing I know I can't keep my pants up. Consistency made that happen. And during the COVID lockdown I really needed walking to elevate my mind and spirit.
I walk 5km at least 6 days a week. I use this time to clear my head. It also helps me sleep like a baby💕💕
I love doing prayer walks. Just walking and praying, also enjoying being out.❤
It's the swagger for me lol thanks for the vid!!
Walking saved my sanity, gratitude~~
Walking made me feel human again. It’s my favorite part of the day now ❤
I get 10k steps in everyday 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 just started a few months ago and I’m hooked obsessed can’t stop need it daily 😻
Walking is meditative because it puts your surroundings in constant change which gives you a stronger sense of the impermanence of the senses which drives the mind inward to seek for the changeless.

No

@@rockysalvatore435Yes
Wow, thank you for this. All the workout videos out there and none of them ever talk about just good old simple walking. For me it's everything!
For me walking has become like a meditation, a way to decompress and enjoy the evening, breathing in the air, gazing at a beautiful sunset. I have been walking consistently for 4 months now and can attest to all the benefits mentioned in this video!
My dog and I walk up to 3 miles a day. My tracker told me the other day we’ve now walked nearly 24 marathons since late January. I love walking, especially with my pup.
Walking always helps me process my emotions when I'm going through something difficult. I LOVE this channel 💚 thank you for sharing
ah same here, thanks :)
I've stopped and you've inspired me to start again ✨ needed that thx
I’m not in the best shape of my life, like you brother. BUT! I walk everywhere! 10 min away ore 2 hours away. So I totally agree! Keeps me in some kind of flow state. And when the walk is done I feel amazing. God bless brother 🙏
Every day walker! 65 yrs old this year 2024! Walk between 6,000-8,000 steps everyday, sometimes twice! It's the greatest gift to yourself physically, mentally and spiritually! Keep Going! Walk On!
The video will get way more views if you title it: HOW TO GET SHREDDED BY JUST WALKING
And walking barefoot.
Probably, yes :)
Sad but true🥰
humans are so simple lol
Me and my parents would go on long walks all the time. Then my mum passed in February. Me and dad went on the same walks, the same routes. It would help us grieve, we would find ourselves talking about more difficult topics and when we would drive home, the tears would come. Without it, we would likely never of talked about certain topics.
I recently started walking my elderly friends dog, I never knew how much fun it was to walk a dog. I can’t wait to get back out every day. I’m just sad winter is around the corner.
I try to every other day and it is THE best relief from anxiety and depression that I’ve found.
I love walking , I walk on the beach an hour 3 days a week and it definitely helps me mentally
Yes since my surgery 3 months ago we’ve been walking almost everyday. I wasn’t able to do my other workouts so this had to be enough. Now I am almost able to do my other workouts, but I am still walking. I started hunched over only able to go half way crying each time, now we make sure we go 4x around at least, in the cute peaceful natures preserve. Best
I walk my 2 dogs twice a day. Even in the winter months here in Canada 🇨🇦
Yes I do. Love taking the dog for a walk. He’s my motivation to go walk cos I think that he needs the walk and that changes my perception. I’ll go on a walk even if it’s cold
I walk every morning and the meditative stare I get into sets my day up for success. This is truth you’re speaking and have earned a new subscriber!!
It always changes my mood for the positive! I enjoy an early evening walk through our neighborhood which allows me to interact with many different people where I live. Even if it's just a smile and a wave. It's good for my soul!
I don't know who you are, where you are or how you showed up on my TH-cam, but....you're beautiful and it's worth saying.
Such amazing presence. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Keep that up !
Love the attitude in this video! Got to give it some swagger for added health benefits 😉👌
Walking is wonderful exercise and I am so grateful I can walk. I do 3 to 5 miles 4 to 7 times per week. This message is playing while walking and so true.
I walk 5 miles 5 days a week. It takes me about 1.5 hours each time. I love it!
You are exactly correct!! I walk everyday and have been for about 6 years now. I walk for a mental break, strength, to be outdoors and to think or listen to something undisturbed. Thanks for spreading the word to help others.
Hey, walking helped me lose 60 pounds. It took three years but it was awesome because I didn’t get hurt like I would when I would try jogging.
congratulations thats great. Walking really does it
Haha he looks like he had a ball filming this and exaggerating how he walks 😂 And when he fell lol. Why did he add that 😭🙏
That would have been perfect around the mental well being part…
“Walking is good for your mental well-being.” SPLAT.
It’s my favourite exercise. I do it pretty much every day
I'm 23 years old, and walking to work and taking adventures in my free time is one of my favorite things to do. I hope in the future to still be walking in my 70s, 80s, and possibly even my 90s. Every day is a new adventure, and taking walks through nature is, literally, a breath of fresh air. :)
Caution: wearing ear buds can cause us to become off balanced as we walk. Do not push buds in too deep! If you feel dizzy remove buds! I know I can't be the only one this happens to.💗
Quit video game at 13 and became a Walker at 15 I’m 23 and although I’m not perfect, walking is a perfect practice for me. I started with 10 minutes, 30, and hour all in the first 2 years of doing it. After I was 17, bets were off, 2-3 hours. And it’s my favorite at night (only do that if you’re safe, and there’s no guarantee). There is simply no better “me-time” on the planet. My routes, my music and thoughts and even just silent walking will manufacture your own brand of sanity that better than a pill or some bs. Therapy doesn’t even scratch what walking did for me.
That is where you get to know yourself and it will never let you down. Do it, do it mindfully, never stop, make it your joy and sense of freedom.
I go for a walk three to five times a day. I then walk an additional 5-6 km a day. Every problem finds a solution or a solution idea while walking. And meanwhile, I know the whole neighborhood and all the dogs 🙂
haha love it. Walking does solve problems it seems
I like the way this guy walks, talks, thinks and looks. ♡
Very inspiring
Been having lower back pain recently and found out from several doctors that it’s lumbar spondylosis. Got it from overworking and sitting so long during lockdown(around 2 yrs) because we got 12hr shifts all week, and I got glued to my seat for if I get up and miss a call or something, I’m basically screwed. My mental health was in shambles, got trauma from my boss that made me work even extra w/o pay just to satisfy his demands…not to mention all that effort and sacrifice was not even recognised. So yep been walking a lot as some sort of therapy too. So far so good. Thinking of quitting soon but not now, it’s still hard to find other jobs, but when I do, I hope I get treated like a human being and not a machine.
It is illegal to make you work without pay. Don't put up with that. Good workers are hard to come by and he is using you. I hope you find meaningful work where you are appreciated soon!
What’s that got to do with walking?
I walk everyday at 4:15 am for 40 minutes. I find everything said in this video true as for the meditative state, promotes ideas, I feel energized and can push myself further for the work out that comes after. It has changed my life.
There's no problem you can't "walk away" from :)
:)
Inner problems can't be walked away from.
Very true! I am a delivery driver for FedEx, so walking is an everyday benefit for me. I have had a history of flat feet and rolling my ankle from coming down from a jump certain styles of lay-ups during basketball, so too much walking can actually leave feeling in pain. But it has also shown me the right way of how to walk without the pain. It doesn’t fix the problem alone. Iit takes time in the gym stretching, re-shaping, and re-strengthening my ankles and the rest of my legs through body-weight stuff like split squats, “sissy squats” (which are closely related), sled pushing, and the like. My recommendation as someone who has struggled with flat arches and rolled ankles: stretch them out and work them out/ strengthen them in the same workout. Some workouts i feel absolutely amazing afterwards, and others, I feel that there is a missing link and my walking is still uncomfortable. Make it a priority, but in 3 to 4 workouts, I usually still feel great at that point. Thanks for the advice my brother! I love your channel
Immediately recognized the Boulder Foothills. How I miss that beautiful view.
Yup. Chautauqua park in Boulder. Been there 100 times.
I walk with my dog every morning and often leave my phone at home. I loved walking since I was child and it has been helping me to disconnect with the very problematic online world. Rsrs Love the video! Thanks!
Great video, I walk with my dog daily on natural park trails in Vibram 5-fingers. Just great, health benefits through the roof. Many are unaware that Paleolithic hunter-gatherers walked more than they ran. No other animal has our stamina and we chased animals to exhaustion just by walking. It is the original, evolution approved, exercise!
wow those are some great point on walking! It's definitely engrained in our genes
Try to walk every morning. My husband and I try to walk for about an hour to an hour and a half. I love it! Thanks for your video.
Love this, am motivated to go out shopping now.
U should also use this as a motivation to walk 5-6 times a day around 30-60 min, cus I am too😂
Yesss!!! Walking has done wonders for my mind and body. I walk during the dark Winter months of New England to stay sane and fit. And most days in the warmer months when I also cycle, swim, and paddle Board. Thanks for sharing this!! 🙌🏼💯
Every day, 14km. Best routine ever!
Something else? Other activity or walking is enough?
Walking makes my day so much better I’ve been doing 3 miles a day for a year
Sure do. Everyday... 2-4x/day with the dog. Especially since I had to start working from home early 2020.
8-10 miles every morning! Podcast have been a life saver!
I love walking. I have a goal of 11000 steps per day set on my Garmin watch, which I hit consistently and often double and at times triple.
I work in heavy industrial construction and I can always tell the difference in my mood if I’ve had to walk a lot during the day, compared with when I’m in and out of vehicles or have a fairly stationary task. I always feel so much more flat, worn out, tired and grumpy if I’m not walking big miles through the day.
I notice that same difference as well. Walking really does make life a lote better
Walk in relax manner improves naturally, bring enough water.It is so good for everone.
good advice :)
I love taking my dogs out for their walk barefoot. We live near the beach so I get to feel the sand as well, it's wonderful!
I walk 6 days a week, about 2.5 miles per walk. I find it enjoyable and it gives me a sense of accomplishment. I'm very aware of the heath benefits which are many so that helps motivate me to continue walking.
The best way to walk a lot is adopt homeless dogs. I walk a total of 2 hours a day with them and I also laugh a lot while watch them play with eachother 💚💚💚
That is a great way to do it!
I agree. I like working out in all types of ways (running, lifting, calisthenics, sports) , but I always say that walking is the foundation of exercise . Walking is a great way to build yourself up to eventually start doing more difficult work out’s , it is also good to do on your rest days if you do other exercises , since it’s also great for recovery . Even if you’re not into working out I’d say walking is still beneficial for mental health and clarity, alongside physical health and living a longer, healthier life .
Barefoot shoes are awesome. You feel better connected to the Earth if that makes sense. Now whenever I've put on a modern pair of shoes with too much padding I really dislike the feeling and something just feels off from not being as in touch with the ground beneath me.
same here bro! Minimilist shoes and walking make all the difference
I started walking every morning at 4:30-5:00 the first time was a few months ago I was staying at va beach for the weekend. did it to watch the sun rise on the beach in bear feet it was beautiful. I've done it everyday since now I walk with ankle weights and a small dun bell in a back pack. I went for having very bad mental health from bipolar disorder and depression drug and alcohol problems to feeling great with no meds even helps me sleep 😴 it's the best I've ever done. the mental clarity and watching the sun rise every morning is amazing even lost ailttle weight. I recommend you start and increase your distance over time slowly if you walk 5-10 miles you will not want to do it the next morning. walking on trails in nature help but are not needed I walk around my complex and still get all the benefits I like there's very few people out side a 4-5 am it's also much cooler at that time around 65 or 75 instead of 85 or 95
I walk at least 20 minutes with no shirt to get vitamin D and steps at the same time
Yeah that's the way to go. DOuble up on the health
I walk everyday out in nature and if the weathers too bad I dance/learn choreography inside. I’m already up to about 600 miles this year. My favorite form of exercise for physical, mental, and spiritual health.
wow 600 miles this year. Amazing
i walk every day for hours. everybody stares at my huge calves and shin and tendons and veins all build just from walking, especially women staring my ankles with open mouth. once i was walkin and my foot fell in to a hole covered with grass and i felt my foot bend in the ankle to the side and felt extreme stretch but didnt get injured cause its strong. even steroid gym builders stare with hate wondering how the hell this lean bastard has bigger legs.
I take 10 000 step long walks every evening, and have been doing so for years. God I love it, when you find something you truly enjoy listening to or something that makes you feel enlightened. It cannot get better. Although I wish I would be able to walk during the day to get sunshine, but nonetheless I have what I have so I'll be happy with it. (Walking during the rain can also often multiply the mood depending on what you're aiming for, and street lights in the middle of the night when it's raining are super aesthetic to hit a pose under 💪)
Only geniuses walks barefooted
Yes, I looked back at my most successful weight loss in the past and realized that getting my steps in daily was common to my success. Since adding walk back into the mix has made the difference.
Do we need that much swag 😎 while walking to get the benefits? 🤔
After my dog of 12 years passed away on July 9, I stopped walking both morning & night. I guess I should start walking again. Thanks for your motivational video! It’s perfect timing.
i'm inspired by your abs and your quads and your pecs and how lean you are and how handsome you are
I loved to run, but had a brain injury, and can no longer do it. Love to walk, 5 miles a day, 7 days a week, for the 5 years, since my injury. I love that it’s good for you.
So true!! I love walking! I’m glad you made this video🤗
My job is walking! It’s helped my life improve in so many ways.
I walk after work to clear my mind because I cant sleep properly or have weird dreams that wake me up. It truly is a meditating method and so far it helped me a ton!
Started a month ago. I can go a few miles easily with my son. Love bonding with him without electronics. All we do is talk about our surroundings. Very relaxing. He never wants to go but Everytime we're out he takes it upon himself to educate me about birds and insects we see.
About 9 months ago, I dedicated the majority of my lunch hours to walking. I'll eat my meal, and then walk around the commercial buildings in our area, listening to podcasts, music, or just walking to the noise around me. It's been my escape from the office every day, and I've kind of become addicted to it, and it's help me lose weight during that portion of time. Walking is amazing!
yes! i love walking!
Walking is the BEST! Thank you for the awesome content!
I walk 20km to 30km almost every day in the woods of Switzerland and on the river banks. Sometimes I walk 45-50 km in a single day, but after that I need 1 day of rest. A year ago I switched all my shoes to Vivobarefoot and since then I've only been using the thinnest sole which is 3mm thin. I always wear them, in winter too. In the beginning I tried to focus on the best possible walk. First I had to learn how to walk since I never before noticed that my feets werent strong enoug to keep my leggs straight. Now walking feels light, like floating above the earth and your legs do their part. After 15 minutes I feel the dopamine and it makes me feel happy and start dancing and fooling around like a kid. 🫣 In the woods of Switzerland I walk up and down all the time as it is an alpine country. I also do some exercise in between if I feel like it. But walking with no luggage and finding a few water tap's in the woods and going on all day without ever feeling hungry. Hunger only comes after I've stopped walking or when I'm at home without doing anything.
ha thanks for sharing :) That sounds magical I'd love to walk in the woods of Switzerland some day
Walk 6 days a week with my beautiful 24 year old daughter who is in a wheelchair. It’s been life saving through C-19. Fresh air and the ability to get outside safely. I’ve been walking for most of my life but particularly the last 15 years.
I FREAKING LOVE walking and I'm trying to get back into it more consistently. It really helped me keep my sanity during the pandemic. I love walking and would recommend it to any and everyone.
I LOVE walking ! Especially walking at a quick pace. It is my favorite exercise. That's how I actually discovered I loved hiking. 🥰
I'm telling you, half the problems of man can be solved by daily exercise (of some kind, LIKE WALKING), drinking water and simply being outdoors (aka touching the earth like our guy said).
Stress reduction, muscle efficiency, all of it. Not a nutritionist, doctor or psychiatrist here, just a fellow human being who feels better about herself when I do these things! 👍🏽💙
Twice a day 2 1/2 miles each time. It's my favorite thing to do. Keep moving so you'll never stop ✌️
Yep. Been doing a walking challenge since last September and didn’t miss a day until I to nurse some family members and fell I’ll myself afterwards! Have been making up missed days by walking twice daily and back to normal challenge soon. It’s been absolutely life-changing 🙌
Every chance I get I am hiking and walking. It is so rejuvenating. Helps my mood and energy. Helps balance hormones and aids in weight loss.
