While going for your usual walks in the morning or in the evening, try putting in a 10-minute of HIIT workout in between. This will make working out fun and also help you lose weight and tone better.
Sprint walking
Ditch your brisk walk and instead try going in for sprint walking. The quicker you walk, the farther you can go, the more kilos you'll shed. This fun routine helps you burn as much as 175-200 calories within half an hour. Each time you do this workout, aim to walk faster than your last time.
Half-marathon walk
An hour-plus walk can boost your immunity and also increases your metabolism. A half-marathon, which is typically about a 20-km walk, can up your energy levels and can keep you fitter. If a long walk bores you, you can also ask your friends to join in.
Belly-bursting walk
Fitness professional Adrija Mane says, "While walking, try doing some ab-based exercise to strengthen your core. For instance, breathe in and hold your breath for a good few seconds when you are walking. If you are in a park, you can try doing some crunches for about five minutes in between your walks."
Brainpower boosting walk
It is said that changing the direction you walk can sometimes up your chances of burning more calories. The walk can be sideways, backwards or forward. It is also said to utilise muscles which haven't been used before while walking, such as the outer or the inner thighs
