30-day walking challenge
The simplest challenge and one of the most effective: walk every day, a little more each week. Perfect for beginners.
How to do it
- Do the day's exercises in the table order, resting 30 to 60 seconds between them.
- If a day feels too hard, repeat the previous day. Going slowly beats quitting.
- Muscle fatigue is normal. Joint pain is not: stop and get checked.
- Pair it with real food: no sugar, no flour, no ultra-processed food.
