SUPERCHARGE YOUR DAILY WALK...
SPEED WALKING
Walk faster than normal – as fast as you can comfortably go – between two markers to raise your heart rate.
ARM ROTATION
Raise both arms above your head and rotate as far around as you can to the right – hold that position while you’re walking. Once you’ve reached your marker, do the same to the left.
Alternatively, as you’re walking, rotate first to the right, then, without holding, swing to the left and back to the right again. Continue this between markers.
ARM LEAN
Put your arms above your head and lean over to the right as far as you can go and hold while you’re walking. Once you’ve reached your marker, do the same to the left.
Or continuously alternate between leaning to the right and then left as you walk.
SKIPPING
Skip between lampposts, going as high as you can. Alternatively, jog between them.
JOHN CLEESE WALK
Copy John Cleese in Monty Python’s Ministry of Silly Walks sketch by freestyling crazy walking styles – this will work all the muscles around your hips. If people aren’t staring at you, then you’re not doing it right!
THE MIRANDA SHUFFLE
Remember how Miranda Hart used to shuffle around her shop, or out of embarrassing situations? Do the same – lead with the right leg and pull the left leg up just behind it (never next to or in front) before starting off again with the right. Then do the same with the left.
MAKE IT HARDER!
Is this too easy? Then don’t take breaks between lampposts and add ten squats between each change of exercise.
