If your goal is losing weight then yes it is underwhelming to say the least, but you should just totally ignore that number and focus on how the exercise makes you feel instead because I promise it’s not a drag and you will feel good about it if you approach it right and make it a habit, if you are pushing yourself way too hard then it is going to be miserable. Take your time, ease into it, then it will feel nice to be able to run or bike some miles without being totally winded.
Yeah, long brisque walks and other low impact exercise helps your body’s internal systems in ways that are more beneficial than just weight regulation. I started walking a couple miles every other day a month ago and despite not losing any significant weight yet I just sleep better, my digestive track is working better, and I just feel better overall.
Missed it due to weather the last few days and I clearly need to get out for a walk this evening.
Note: I feel miserable while I am doing the exercise, the good feeling is the rest of the day.
I notice a huge improvement in just about everything when I’m going on walks frequently. I’m sure the exercise and vitamin D is most of it, but it’s also sort of meditative and good for clearing your head.
I feel good once I get over an initial exasperation, say about 5-10 minutes into the exercise, once I push through that I feel pretty golden and the exercise starts to feel good. I suppose it is different for everyone though, but yeah the good feeling does persist throughout the day as well so it’s definitely worth it in any case.
