Consistent exercise in my neighborhood

Walking outdoors is a great cardiovascular workout, especially if you’re new to exercise. Here’s how to get started:

Determine your distance and route, such as two laps around the track at your local park each Sunday.

Increase your speed. Each week, time yourself and try to walk your lap faster than you did the week before.

Increase your distance. Once you’ve bumped up your speed, add another lap to your routine to walk a longer.
