It can be time consuming due to the sheer length and duration, but I have found fat falling off in the places I have most issues (lower abdomen, chest, and back). It’s free, it’s super chill, and I have found it clearing my mind too. In combination with more intense regime, I think it is a a necessary supplemental exercise. I think walking outside is probably better (it feels more natural to me at least), but just a plain ol’ treadmill or other cardio machine will probably get those steps up. Its super low-impact, easy, and do-able.

I’m dropping weight and I’m finding my brain rebooting in some places as well. It’s overall super great and I encourage every Hexbear to increase their step count.

    for 10k steps it’ll be ~4.5 miles with some variation based on stride.

    In terms of pace, a typical pace is between 20-30 minutes per mile.

    Depending on how much walking one does and their walking pace, 40 minutes to an hour should shore up steps.
