If there’s one exercise that should win the gold for its impressive list of benefits — and minimal risks — it’s walking. It’s convenient (just think, no equipment!) and it’s contraindicated for very few conditions and comorbidities.

Yes, people of all ages and fitness levels, from newbies to elite-level athletes, can get many of the same benefits running provides by doing walking workouts — with the right techniques.
