Walk 10,000 steps a day and extend your life for many years

Walking is very useful for your health. Firstly, the muscle tone of the body is maintained, and the work of the cardiovascular system is normalized.

There has long been a theory that it is enough for a person to walk at least 10,000 steps a day to maintain health. This technique has long been recommended to their patients by many doctors and fitness instructors around the world.

This figure did not arise by chance. It began to be used after the Summer Olympics-1964 in Tokyo. In those years, there was a boom in sports novelties and gadgets in Japan. In 1965, new pedometers Manpo-kei, which means "10 thousand steps" in Japanese, went on sale. The creator of the new device, Yoshiro Hatano, accurately calculated how many steps it takes to equalize the number of calories spent with the number of calories consumed.

The Japanese doctor was right in many ways, 10,000 steps is about 8 kilometers on the way - the most optimal figure. This theory was also confirmed by the British Heart Foundation.

A similar way to improve health and prolong life has not bypassed Uzbekistan. In order to improve the healthy lifestyle of the population and the introduction of mass sports, the Government of Uzbekistan has adopted several documents (UP-6099 of 10/30/2020 and PKM-253 of 04/28/2021), according to which the platform "Healthy Lifestyle" has been launched, providing for the encouragement of Uzbeks in the form of cash payments for a certain number of steps.

In order to maintain your health in the fresh air and even make money on it, it's enough to simply download and install the 1hls application on your phone, log in to the system, specifying personal anthropometric data and the number of the electronic wallet. The funds will be credited automatically within a day after the successful completion of the assigned tasks.

The main condition for achieving the maximum effect during wellness walking, according to experts, you need to walk at a brisk pace.

There are a few more simple rules for such a walk:

• It is better to take 10 thousand steps at a time. This is how your body gets the necessary cardio load and strengthens muscle tone.
• If your health allows you to exercise, you should not break the route into segments with breaks (going to the store or for other needs) – you will not achieve the desired effect.
• You need to walk every day, this option of walking works if you use it systematically.
• Walk on an empty stomach. Experts have proven that for an effective result of any sports loads, you need to consume food after training. Only water is allowed during training.
• You need to walk with a straight posture, then all muscle groups receive the load.
• Proper breathing - inhale through the nose, exhale through the mouth. Then our heart gets the right load, and the body is protected from overwork.

At the same time, it is very important to monitor your condition while walking. If severe shortness of breath appears and the heartbeat increases, you should definitely rest or stop the lesson. Also, there are no restrictions for walking by age, only by health.

Start taking care of your health now – walk your 10,000 steps a day!
