Walking with Stops:  More Energy, More Calories!

Scientists have found that taking short breaks while walking actually burns more calories than walking continuously.

This is because our bodies become more efficient at walking after a few minutes, meaning we use less energy to cover the same distance.

But when we start and stop walking, it takes more energy to get going again, which means more calories burned.

So, next time you're trying to get in shape, try walking with some short breaks and see how many calories you can burn!
