[10 Ideas to Try]"},"content":{"rendered":"

If you can’t use a treadmill at home, you can always walk without one. Most people use an exercise video to help them walk in place and get their bodies moving. You can do a number of different movements that get your legs and arms moving, just like a walk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can walk at home without a treadmill by doing one of the following:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Follow along with a walking video. <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. March in place while watching TV so that your feet lift off the ground, just like walking. <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Select an area free from obstructions and walk forward and backward repeatedly like dancing.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Use a small step platform to step on while alternating your legs.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Step side to side from the left side of an area to the right side.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Create a path in your house to walk along. <\/strong>Go back and forth or in a loop.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Get a stand-up desk and walk in place while typing on the computer or taking calls.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Use a mini stepper to get a leg workout.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. Find a book to place on the ground and step over it, and turn and step over it again. <\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  10. Dance along to Just Dance Game or other videos.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    We all need a little motivation at times. I think it’s a good idea to watch videos to get started with your walking at home. The other method I think you can get used to quickly get into a habit of walking at home is to try walking while working at a stand-up desk. Find out what method works best for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Walking at home is a good idea when you can go outside or to the gym. It might seem impractical at first but there are lots of ways to get your legs moving like you’re walking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    One way that I get a lot of walking done at home is by organizing. I go back and forth from the garage and my room bringing in boxes and taking out boxes. I do this sometimes to minimize the number of items I have in my room and to find items that I have stored away. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Another way I get some walking done is by watching Just Dance videos. Some videos are very leg-intensive and give your legs a workout. Whatever you choose to do, the more you can enjoy it, the more likely you will want to do it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    It might not seem like you would get much exercise by walking at home, but walking moves your body, and movement is healthy. If you are consistently moving your body for 30 minutes of uninterrupted movement, you can reap many health benefits. <\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Your goal might be to get your body moving about five<\/b><\/span><\/span> times a week for 30 minutes. That way, you can reach the 150-minute <\/a>exercise advised <\/b><\/span>by the American Heart Association.<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Here are some ideas to get you started on walking at home. <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n
