Golfers Walk Your Way To Losing Weight

Posted by Mike in Weight Loss

I receive emails from golfers every day struggling with their weight. Many of them have put on 30-50 pounds throughout the years and can’t find a way to kickstart the weight loss program.

The human body is designed to walk. Walking is the should be the staple in your life. Too many people find any reason they can to jump in the car to get one block down the street. Finding creative ways to get more walking in isn’t as hard as you think. You have many opportunities every day to walk.

Park Farther Away

I know I can say this one and most of you still won’t do it :cry: . It amazes me how much effort people put in to finding the closest spot next to the store they want to go to. They’ll drive around for minutes to get that close spot. Come on… just park the fricking car and walk! If you do this for every opportunity you have, it can add up to a serious amount of calorie-burning per month. Do it everytime you park your car.

Take The Stairs

Who needs a stairmaster when you can just take the stairs at every opportunity :smile: ! If you are in a mult-story building for your job, take the stair instead of the elevator. You’ve probably heard this before, but do you do it? At all? I’ll bet not. You’d be amazed how much better you’ll feel doing it. You’re getting a burst of blood and oxygen pumping through your body in a sense “waking you up”. Can you imagine if you had say 5-10 floors to walk. You would be melting the weight off if you walked them instead of taking the elevator.

10 Minutes After Dinner

This is a HUGE one! Do this right after dinner every night and you’ll be a fat-burning machine. If you can’t walk after dinner, you ate too much. Utilize portion control and you’ll be able to get walking easily after dinner. Make it a family affair. Get the whole familiy walking after dinner and talk about your day. Bonding with family can make this a fun activity and not a grind.

Get Through The Holidays

With the holidays come more food and inactivity. This is death to your weight loss management program. Walking is one easy way to at least maintain your weight and not blow up 5-10 pounds every holiday season.
