My personal experience is, walk it off. I don’t own a car, never have, so I end up walking all over the place. (and public transpiration here sucks, fuck it) I mean seriously, people with cars got it fucking made…But, I enjoy walking even when I have nowhere to go. Sunday afternoons are often spent with me taking treks.
But it has to be said, I eat like a bird. Since I quit drinking, I eat a lot more actually, and have gained some weight, so I guess what I’m saying is probably pretty off. Except for the fact that I was really skinny when I was drinking. Maybe that weight I gained was supposed to be there, for my build. But when I didn’t drink I still walked a whole lot, and always had a ’‘manageable girth’’.
Probably a bit of both I would guess, but walking has always kept me in shape, plus it’s really good for your heart, unless you have serious heart problems, I guess. I also walk really fast though, maybe this helps? I’m not even joking, joggers would have problems winning a race against me if it had to go on for like, five hours. I out walk most people, I love power walking, and I can do it a loooong time. I also have a habit of taking walks after eating a meal, at least when I can. It helps to digest, and it’s better for you than just sitting down in front of the TV and napping after eating a big steak. Look at pilgrims and shit, their biggest meal was breakfast, then they went out to work in the fields and stuff. Those guys were probably way healthier and stronger than us. of course, having to do everything by hand probably helped a hell of a lot, and this is getting off topic, as I do nothing by hand which doesn’t include a video game controller
But still. Obviously you have to watch what you eat, and it has to be said, I don’t. But I end up enjoying a lot of healthy stuff, so that helps, I would think. By default anyways lol. But yeah, for me, walking it off always seems to pay off.
Because I am otherwise so fucking lazy, I do nothing physical besides walking lol. Plus I don’t really watch my health. I’m also a smoker, but it has not affected my walking, least so far. Don’t ask me to run though, fuck running lol
