Walk This Way

Walking remains one of the best ways to maintain or restore a healthy body. Now Walking for Fitness and Health, a book by Dr. Klaus Bos, will help you develop a walking program to strengthen your heart, shed pounds, and reduce stress.

The book details proper methods for stretching essential muscle groups, avoiding injury, and improving endurance. Checklists help you pick the right shoes and clothing for all types of weather, monitor your pulse, and gauge your improvements. Special sections offer tips for senior walkers, those with physical limitations, and those who want to incorporate a treadmill into their exercise program.

Walking for Fitness and Health is published by Sterling Publishing Company, and is available through bookstores.
