Walking and Taking Breaks:  It's Like a Car!

Imagine you are driving a car. It uses more gas when you first start driving than when you are already going.

It's the same with walking! When you start walking, your body uses more energy than when you've been walking for a while.

If you take lots of short breaks while walking, your body has to keep using extra energy to start walking again.

So, if you want to burn more energy while walking, try taking lots of little breaks!
