Does music make exercise more effective?
There is no need to explain that daily
walking helps you improve your physical and mental health. It not only burns calories
but also increases your blood flow and even brain cells. But which is the
better way to get the most mileage out of daily walking, slow leisurely waking
or high-speed walking? A study in Britain, where overweight and obese are major
physical and medical problems, found that 10-minute’s brisk walking at around
100 paces per minute gives more such benefits than walking 10,000 steps at a
casual pace. Sounds rewarding? Then how fast is the 100-paces-per-minute walking?
It’s about as fast as you can talk but not sing.
Understanding is one thing but doing is
another. What could help you walk faster? A simple answer is to walk to high-tempo
music. This way, you can enjoy not only music but also health and mental benefits.
Enjoy reading the article and decide if and
how fast you walk.
