@athoub Its hot where I live but if you go out in early morning then a early evening walk you have your goal in . Just start slowly at first then increase . I am up to 20 min. a day but others are doing The important thing is to just do it , you feel better afterwards
@athoub, I want to welcome you to Mayo Connect. I am happy that you have already met @mayofeb2020 who is a terrific encourager for us on those days when we think we don't want to get moving.
I read that you are a liver transplant recipient, well so am I. I used to have a group of walking buddies, and we walked regularly in the mornings at the park. But none of them walks anymore. So this is a fun way for me to walk with others and to adhere to a regular pattern of activity.
This group was started with the purpose of walking everyday and encouraging each other. @becsbuddy introduced a walking program where you add increased distance and intensity each week. I don't know much about it, as I just walk. Becky knows more about it and keeps a count of the 12 weeks. Here’s the link if you want to read about it. – Get walking with this 12-week walking schedule
Having walking buddies is a great motivator. I plan to walk tomorrow morning if it does not rain. Will you join me, virtually on your treadmill?
I also want to invite you to join me in the Transplant Discussion Group. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/transplants/
