  • It's easy to feel overwhelmed by unrealistic goals and fitness trends. But you don't need to follow those fads.

The article from RNZ discusses a study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, which highlights the health benefits of even minimal amounts of daily walking. The research, involving over 226,000 participants, found that walking for just five minutes each day can significantly reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and early death. Specifically, the study showed that individuals who walked for at least 10 minutes daily had a 15% lower risk of premature death compared to those who did not walk regularly. The benefits increase with more walking, but even small amounts can make a substantial difference in cardiovascular health, emphasizing that every step counts towards improving health outcomes.
