Walking in the Stepgym shoe is becoming more common as people find out the benefits of the extra workout that they get by walking while wearing the Stepgym shoe.
Walking can burn calories in traditional gym shoes or in the Stepgym shoe.
When the number of calories burned is greater than the number of calories being consumed, stored fat is burned. Healthy weight loss is approximately 2-3 pounds lost per week. It may not be the dramatic results that are often promised by various advertisements on TV, but it will be more likely to stay off once lost so that the same 5-10 pounds aren’t lost and gained repeatedly. When becoming more fit, muscle may be gained. Muscle weighs more than fat and the results of exercise may not show up on the scale but show up when clothes become loose and baggy.
It takes about 3600 calories to burn a pound of fat. Burning an additional 500 calories a day everyday of the week can do it. Combining burning calories with reducing calorie intake can increase the number of pounds lost. On average, 100 calories are burned per mile walked. Brisk walking on varied terrain will burn a little more and slow walking on a level surface with no inclines, like sidewalks, will burn a little less.
Watching a speedometer when driving you can determine a mile from your house or measure out 5280 feet. Walk it a couple times at a natural pace and average the number of steps to determine how many steps it takes to walk a mile. Pedometers can help keep track of the number of steps taken in a day. The average person takes about 2000 steps per mile. Depending on the length of a person’s legs and their stride, it can take 1760 to 2640 steps to complete a mile.
A good pace to walk is to walk a mile in about 15 minutes. The pace of the walk should cause the heart rate to increase for optimal results. When you can’t talk without gasping for air, then the pace is probably too fast. When you can carry a tune while walking, the pace is probably too slow to get good results.
Studies and estimates are done with people wearing traditional shoes. Wearing the Stepgym shoes will increase the calories burned because the muscles work harder. To find out more about the Stepgym shoe and order your own, go to Stepgym.com.
