The Surgeon General recommends an average of 30 minutes of movement per day to assure greater health and longer life. Most health and fitness experts agree, the best and simplest way to achieve this is through a brisk, daily walk. THE WALKING MAGAZINE COMPLETE GUIDE TO WALKING is an informative, inspiring, and practical handbook to receiving all the benefits of walking. It provides fundamental information as well as dozens of solutions to help readers overcome their own barriers to regular daily activity, including:

* A 52-week program (including distances, times, and more)
* Tricks and tips to help you get out the door
* Success stories of real people
* Inspiring full-color photographs throughout
* Guidelines on selecting footwear, clothing, and other gear
* Hints for time management
* How to use a walking log
* How to create a personalized program
* Stretching and strength training for the walker

Based on the overwhelmingly successful Walking Magazine series “52 Weeks to Turn Yourself Around,” THE WALKING MAGAZINE COMPLETE GUIDE TO WALKING provides a training routine that encourages self-confidence and a happier, healthier lifestyle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Fitness Book!, Jan 3 2002
By Reader Writer (Portland, OR United States) - See all my reviews
This is one of the best written fitness books out there (and I've read a ton of 'em). Fenton covers topics from how to start a beginning walking program to competetive speed walking, and everything in between. It's well written and presented and is actually fun to read. More importantly, you'll learn it's fun to walk for fitness. A great start for beginners, but also a good motivator for seasoned exercisers.

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this book!, Sep 9 2003
By Sheepla (North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews
I've bought this book four times now, because I show my copy to a family member or friend and they get so excited about it, I give them my copy and then have to go buy another one. This is the best walking book I've ever come across, with good information for the total beginner or the experience walker who just wants some extra motivation. Buy it!

5.0 out of 5 stars really gets you walking, Jun 22 2002
By S. GOLDSTEIN "liscensed book worm" (Hod-Hasharon Israel) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
i've been walking for a long time but this book got me walking every day instead of once in a while and taught me how to get the maximum out of my walks. i've stopped obssessing about my weight and my whole attitude towards my body and towards the concept of regular exercise has changed. the best thing about this book is that it is a daily, weekly and yearly companion that keeps you on the exercise regime. fenton's writing is guiless and honest -- a friendly push out the door. no criticism, just encouragement to start enjoying the natural movement of your own body. his frankness and simplicity are refreshing.
