After many years of doing all kinds of physical exercises now I think walking is probably the best exercise for health. I have done all kind of stuff: calisthenics, lifting weights, stretching, some pilates and yoga, a lot of qigong, taichi, running, swimming, etc. This is all fine and interesting, but now I have concluded that walking is better than anything else. Maybe it is because it is the most natural form of moving exercise for the human body.

 

If someone can walk a few kilometers every day, he will be working greatly for his health and wellbeing, and it is also a very good moment to meditate.

 

 

Walking is certainly a great exercise, but i disagree about all the walking meditation

 

I think walking meditation is a scam that dosent really work

 

but you can certainly think about things when you walk

Sometimes on long walks,

I wonder what my next thought will be

then like magic thinking stops. 

And I just walk.

Walking is good, but I think a Farmer's Walk is better if you actually want to get your muscles in shape, not just your heart. It's regular walking, but you carry something heavy in each hand like a briefcase.
