We all know that walking is good for you, sometimes you can't get to a gym, the weather may be bad BUT you can still get your walking done in your home!
First set your step goal for the day. Get your steps in whenever you can, take a 10 minute walk up and down your stairs, walk in place for a while, pace a hallway or do a 30 minute walking video in front of your TV.
Once you have your goal in place make sure you are taking the steps to try to achieve them, I like to try and go over my goal if possible.
If you don't have a fitness tracker most of your phones have walking apps on them.
You can also add bodyweight exercises while you are walking in place, alternate some lunges, squats, butt kickers or sidekicks. So for example walk in place for 3 minutes and do a set of the bodyweight exercises of 10-15.
The main goal is to get in as many steps as you can and getting your heart rate up as you do it so it counts as an actual cardio workout.
