I am one of those people who walks everywhere.

If the destination’s under an hour away, I won’t even think about taking public transport or ordering an Uber. In fact when I moved to Sydney a few months back, my number one priority when looking for a place to live was whether it was walking distance to work, good coffee and a supermarket. …I’m just lucky that the place I found is also walking distance to plenty of pubs, too. Honestly, how could you not love walking? It’s great for so many reasons, including but not limited to:

It can sometimes involve dogs.

It means you get to wear sneakers.

It’s not only exercise, but gets you from A to B.

It’s a great way to clear your head.

You can find cool things (read: intriguing shops) along the way.

It provides inspiration for endless Spotify playlists.

You can do it with friends.

You can walk somewhere with lots of trees and nature and call it hiking.

And the one over-arching reason that trumps all the rest: it’s free.

For someone whose exercise regime consists of nothing but walking, I’ve always wondered whether it’s actually… doing anything. I’ve never been much of a gym enthusiast, and while I’m not attempting to lose weight at the moment, I have always felt like walking as a means of keeping active is what keeps me healthy – happy, sleeping well, and maintaining a pretty strong immune system. But to find out if walking can actually help you lose weight (if that is what you so desire), I spoke to Andrew Zorzit, an exercise physiologist and managing director of TherapyCare. He said ultimately, if your want to lose weight, your objective is to burn fat – which walking can certainly do. …But only if it exceeds 20 minutes (so unfortunately, my walk to work doesn’t count). “In the first 20 minutes of any moderate level of activity, you only burn carbohydrates, as the body recognises them as the easiest fuel source to burn,” Andrew explained. “Only once these stores have been depleted (which is 20 minutes into a walk), will your body turn to your fat stores for fuel to burn.”

Interesting.

As with most exercise regimes aimed at assisting with weight loss, he added that long walks should be paired with a nutrition plan, as “diet is the main reason behind losing, maintaining and gaining weight”.

How many hours should I walk to lose 1 kg?

Most people need a calorie deficit of around 500 calories per day to lose half a kilo per week. Thus, people aiming to lose weight should exercise for at least 150-200 minutes per week and walk 10,000 steps per day to achieve their weight loss goals.

How many of you think that hitting the 10K mark on your fitness band is enough to maintain your health? Well, most of us. The idea of walking 10,000 steps per day originated in 1965 when a Japanese company developed a pedometer called 'Manpo-Kei', which means '10,000 steps meter'. The goal became a famous one because it was easy to remember and way beyond the daily steps for most people. The best part about the 10,000 steps goal is that it's challenging but achievable at the same time. But is walking 10,000 steps a day enough? It totally depends on your goals. Here in this article, we will delve into how many calories can 10,000 steps help you burn and can it help you lose weight.
