obviously yes, especially if you're fat gay. Do some /nightwalk/ once in a while, both for physical and mental health
I know 2 fat guys that walk a lot. You should just stop eating so much, as your TDEE isn't going to get alot higher than 2300kcal, no matter how much you exercise.
OP here. I don't anything else. I can't go to a gym because its way too far away. And I can't start running outside because there is no where to run to.
yeah. find a set of stairs and walk up and down for an hour every day
>how is that horrible?
Sounds like what sisyphus had to do after he misobeyed the gods.
>find a hilly hiking sport and hit every hilly slope
I live in suburbia there are no hills around me that I can drive to.
You diet to lose weight first then use walking to offset the calories you’ve miscounted. Simple as.

This sounds horrible. Is this a viable strategy?
You can probably run where you live. I’m not super familiar with suburban areas but if it’s like the housing development my grandfather lives in, you can run through the various streets on the road pretty easily. Probably takes about an hours to run through all the streets.
it unironically boggles my mind to see so many cars parked outside my gym
most of these people are locals and live 5-25 minutes walking distance away
thats a free cardio session that they are missing out on
>And I can't start running outside because there is no where to run to.
There is literally no difference between walking to a destination and back versus running to a destination and back except walking is for the elderly and huge gays like yourself.
>I can't go to a gym because its way too far away
I really think you should try calisthenics. Pushups, squats, inverted rows, calf raises, and situps will cover just about everything.
Lots of health benefits from walking, but it's not great for weight loss on its own unless you can spend hours a day doing it.
Reduce calories, cut out sugar/bad carbs, alcohol, and calorie-dense garbage, and exercise (lift, walk, etc) 5 days a week.
>I can't go to a gym because its way too far away
Home gym candidate. Start with a set of adjustable dumbells and basic calisthenics. If you're a fat tub of shit, wait to lose some fat before getting a pullup bar; but do get a pullup bar and gym rings as soon as possible.
You can use adjustable gymnastics rings for inverted rows (like
>I can't go to a gym because its way too far away
I really think you should try calisthenics. Pushups, squats, inverted rows, calf raises, and situps will cover just about everything.
suggested) to build yourself up to pullups, but the dumbbells will help you build up back strength in the meantime; especially if you're too fat and weak to do inverted rows even.
kek retard, I did over 2000km last year, I burn about 1000cal/10km at an avg pace of a comfy 6kmph. I burn 500cal in about a half hour. Have you ever gone outside? Is a walk to you just going to the corner store for candy?
Tracked, polar H10, I walk hard. I'm not talking a leisurely stroll, I mean thundering on for an entire day
My most recent walk. 4156cal/7.5h = 554cal/h
My mistake, long day working in the rain, I meant per hour (I think in 5km/h pacing)
(adding reply to correct here too, apparently I am also retard)

This poster is your typical seething fat fuck that wants to be celebrated for making an "incremental" change that does not go up further increments so he can feel good about continuing to be a "healthier" fat fuck.
retarded take, walking past a threshold becomes very much so exponential in its energy usage.
Sweating wastes a lot of energy and sucks water out of you causing you to burn even more energy to keep going.
I know 2 fat guys that walk a lot. You should just stop eating so much, as your TDEE isn't going to get alot higher than 2300kcal, no matter how much you exercise.
Why nightwalk specifically? I try to do it during the day just to get some sun, but it's starting to heat up around here. I guess I'll just have to wake up at 7 or something and go then.
The captions on the meme are not necessarily chronological or causal. If he learned the layout of the city from constantly walking, it stands to reason that he would take the best route every day, since he knows the other routes are a waste of time.
How about you do pushups/pullups while not eating like a fat lardoid and maybe do some burpees or a more demanding form of cardio kek. Humans are incredibly efficient at walking literally a waste of your time trying to lose weight from walking. No surprise here, a fat retard. Most common American out there.
You are consistently retarded. You sound like those old women trying to lose weight by counting their steps and having an "occasional" treat. You know normal people don't consider walking as exercise, right? I just don't understand how you aren't embarrassed by how retarded you are
Lost a ton of weight ruck marching. You really don't understand thermogenisis, do you? Lifting isn't burning as many calories as you think, even with muh anaerobic wimbdow meme. Steady state aerobic cardio is the prolonged calorie burning sweet spot. If that's low to moderate pace running, so be it, or walking for longer, so be it. The body doesn't care which you do besides the intentsity.
Moving X mass, Y distance, requires Z energy. It's high school level physics but maybe they don't teach that in the american 3rd world
Kek, you still write like a fat person. Is just eating less really so hard for your kind?
It's just funny how obsessed with BURNING MUH CALUHREES fatties are, you sound exactly like the stereotypical old lady with a very basic and flat understanding of exercising and losing weight. You aren't wrong in what you say, but name one fit/healthy-looking person that "just walks a few hours". It's retarded to think you'll lose weight just by walking
>Heh, it's just high school levels of physics
Yikes
Nta, call it whatever you want but if the choice for me is >lose weight by walking for hours
Or >lose weight by undereatint
I'm going to do the one that has me doing more cardio and eating well, rather than smugly watching netflix while succumbing to malnutrition

I can smell your insecurity even over my own ball sweat. I genuinely hope your life starts turning around. Maybe try long walks, they help.
shit take, walking 10 miles kills 1000 calories, or more on good terrain. Walk 20 hill miles and you just lost ~300 grams of fat and became vastly stronger.
that's ez mode retard
10 min of virgin pushup/pullups vs chad 2+ hours of non-stop walking, that *also* requires attention span and to distract yourself from constant stimulants...?
you're an obvious shut-in incapable of going outside daily, i feel sry for u, moronino
i used to call it urban hiking. i would walk the streets all day when i told family i was at work. calves are my best feature and the best feature on a potential mate
ive been doing /nightwalks/ for about 8 months now
start at midnight and aim to be back home just over 1
its extremely comfy with some good music in your ears
the only people you will meet are the occasional dog walkers
i started doing it to help with my posture but i keep doing it because its so comfy
if you want to burn more calories just upgrade your /nightwalk/ into a /nightjog/
>Hates living in an ugly city
As opposed to a place with no sidewalks where you can't take a walk without risking being run over by some soccer mom with an SUV as you attempt straddle the edge of a highway?
Distance is also kind of a bad metric though anon, because it says nothing about elevation or effort.
All that really matters is how much exertion is required and how long you can keep that up- both distance and steps are just secondary markers to give others an idea
yes it's a good way to burn cals. better than running for fat people because it puts less stress on the joints. obviously you have to do like 2 hours or more though. and make sure you walk at a good pace to get your heart rate up. no dilly dallying around.
You know what I used to walk everywhere. I was not fat. I moved to a place where there was nowhere to walk and I got fat. I would walk to the liquor store any time of day or night because it was 24 hours too. There aren’t any 24 hour places near me anymore. Walking is blessed walk anywhere and everywhere you can.
Hey bros. OP here. I just went for a 10 minute walk. My legs got so damn itchy that I had to stop way through the place I was going. Hopefully as I continue walking the itchiness stops.
>And I can't start running outside because there is no where to run to.
There is literally no difference between walking to a destination and back versus running to a destination and back except walking is for the elderly and huge gays like yourself.
Yes, but not if you stuff yourself full of food on the side. Any new avenue of calorie burning is a net positive. Go for a two hour walk in the forest just listen to the sounds around you. Not having music or noise blasting in your head while doing so does wonders for your peace of mind as well.
it's basically all i do for cutting. i stop eating my daily peanut butter (-250kcal) and go from 8k steps to 16k steps. never hungry and consistently lose weight/fat.
Walking is viable for weight loss because it's a convenient low-risk of injury workout. I think it's especially good for beginning fatties because it is the easiest workout to implement the 'Don't think just do' mentality. Also it's a good substitute workout for others as well. But I wouldn't sleep on other cardios tho.. All have their goods and bads.
Walking: Most convenient / Worst Cal per hour
Running: Good middle ground / Risk of injury
Swimming: Best Cal per hour/ Most inconvenient
Absolutely yes, but only if you speed walk and/or walk on an incline. It’s because you must elevate your heart rate to lose weight. But yes, steady state cardio is good.
CICO. And CI > CO, but there is nothing wrong with working both sides of the equation.
Move your body a bit more _and_ do as much of a caloric deficiet as you can maintain until you reach your goals.
*Just* walking and making no other changes? Probably useless.
186cm
146kg
CW 80kg
I am drop 66 kg only by walking and strict cico without any exercise.
Fatmagic on /fat/y contest.
Yes I have lose skin and shit. Time for lifting some weights. OP pic it's just me
Walking is good LISS cardio which is good for burning fat, a good way of burning calories without intense hunger afterwards (think about how hungry you are after a swim, you DON'T get that from walking) and its better for your knees/joints as its less impact.
Walking is based, you just have to have the mental fortitude for the long distances/times needed to cover. If you're serious about 90 mins to 2hrs a day at a brisk pace will get you 10-15k steps, then anything after that is a bonus step wise.
Tie a walking routine like that in 5-ish days a week with a diet, a day for HIIT (sports, running, swimming) you'll see good weightloss results but importantly you'll be burning more fat from the LISS which is ultimately what you're after.
Yes, it’s the best way imo. I walk about an hour a night on a treadmill at a standing desk while I play vidya or browse IST. 200lbs, 5’11, ~10% bodyfat, eat whatever I want including McDonald’s and Jersey Mikes subs multiple times a week. 1300 test, 50 e2. Natty
Not at all. You can change your path and pace when walking, that's the only variation you'll get.
Lifting involves a multitude of programs, exercises, techniques, movement patterns and neuromuscular adaptations you can spend years to master. There's endless variation. You also burn far more calories in less time.
Not OP but also in losing weight phase. How do you all feel about stationary bike? I'm going to keep doing it either way for now bc it's something I can/have been doing consistently. I have a normal bike and am going to start riding outdoors once I'm a little more capable/confident
weighted walking is pointless, kills your form, kills your knees, kills your ankles, kills your back
just run faster or longer or more or incline on a treadmill
Buy an under desk treadmill. Walk every day, passively burning calories so you can eat more or lose weight. Also enjoy better focus on work or hobbies.
walking imo is very very viable
just being in motion is viable
with walking more=better
if you can walk for 6-8 hours a day you should 2months and you wont recognise yourself
also walking i feel just gets the blood pumping properly its just enough load for your body to sort everything out i belive its benefits are boderline universal for most bodily function's
So I grew up in New York. I was never IST or anything but not fat. About a year ago I moved out of New York and all of a sudden I gained like a lot of weight and it was so much harder for me to lose it. I really didn’t know why until I just realized, in New York you walk everywhere. Where I live now there is nowhere to walk to, you just drive. Even if I try to walk there are no sidewalks, just 2 lanes with no shoulder they you are praying to not get hit by a car walking on. Now I’m making an effort to walk, even if I don’t have a reason for it.
YEAH WALKABLE CITIES WOULD BE AWESOME BUT THERE IS ONE PROBLEM:
BLACK PEOPLE EXIST AND ARE HOBOS AND SHIT ON MY WALKABLE STREET AND SHIT ON MY WALKABLE SUBWAY AND LEAVE THEIR FOOD IN FRONT OF MY WALKABLE APARTMENT THEREFORE I HATE CITIES
A friend of mine lost about 100lbs from extremely strict keto and walking.
By strict keto I mean STRICT. He would not eat anything that had even one carb. He would prick his finger several times a day to measure the ketones in his blood stream.
yeah. find a set of stairs and walk up and down for an hour every day
Waste of time. You'd need to walk 5 hours a day to burn around 500 cals.
Youd need to wait about five hours for me to stop fucking your mom
OP here. I don't anything else. I can't go to a gym because its way too far away. And I can't start running outside because there is no where to run to.
This sounds horrible. Is this a viable strategy?
how is that horrible? you know how many calories you burn walking up the stairs? or find a hilly hiking sport and hit every hilly slope

you burn less than half of that. 100 kcals per mile if you are an adult sized male or carrying enough weight to simulate being one
You definitely don't burn anywhere near 500 calories in half an hour of walking.
Tracked, polar H10, I walk hard. I'm not talking a leisurely stroll, I mean thundering on for an entire day
My most recent walk. 4156cal/7.5h = 554cal/h

(adding reply to correct here too, apparently I am also retard)
It's been another long day, forgot pic (strava), holy fuck
It's about 100 cal/mi
You burn about 300 in an hour assuming you’re not a manlet twink. Or a woman
Absolute dogshit, I am 6'1, 72kg and I burn just shy of 500 per hour walking.
You are either short or haven't even tried.
I lost 5 kilos in about 6 weeks doing 20-23k steps 5 times a week

I have a question about this.
I notice that when I sweat when I lift, I tend to lose more weight, but when I get used to the lifting, I stop sweating and the losing weight stops.
Does sweating have something magical about it that makes you lose weight easier. PS: it might be that I lost discipline as I went along and ate badly.
sweating pissing shitting and breathing as far as i am aware are the litteral only methods we have for excreteing toxins
most of the fat you loose is litterly breathed out
when you sweat as you walk that will litterly detox you compared to running ect running will also detox but suck way more salt ect
they'd also be 5 hours that fatty pants was away from his fridge.
It would be more like 1200.
Imagine sharing this board with retards like this who just post whatever hot take they got and there's plenty of them
I know 2 fat guys that walk a lot. You should just stop eating so much, as your TDEE isn't going to get alot higher than 2300kcal, no matter how much you exercise.
TDEE can be way fucking higher than 2300 bro it just aint a good strategy to try and increase it by walking
you're braindead dude my TDEE is 3200

The 20 year old walker seems full of self contradictions
It is useful for building stamina. For weight loss it depends on how fast and how long you walk.
my wife divorced me and unironically im eating my feelings away. if it wasnt for 15k steps a day i would be obese rn(i gained 6kg tho)
my life is basically like this
>eat great amounts of calories
>insant motivation to damage control
>go for 20m walk
>repeat to infinity
so i walk like 2 hours a day average. someone post that wsteps graph
why do retards talk about steps. how long was the DISTANCE?
None of those anons but I'm an autist and walk the same stretch in my backyard for an hour straight
Distance is also kind of a bad metric though anon, because it says nothing about elevation or effort.
All that really matters is how much exertion is required and how long you can keep that up- both distance and steps are just secondary markers to give others an idea
It's safe to assume most people are walking on flat ground. A sidewalk/pavement, or a treadmill.
because of apps
10k steps is almost exactly 4.5 miles if you're an average height male. Just convert it in your head.
Yes, you burn roughly 100 calories an hour depending on height, speed, and weight.
100 calories per mile not hour.
His app is saying about 125 kcal/mile
walking is really good for mental health but I wouldn't put too much stock in it for weight loss.
>mental health
explain
ITT: fat fucks think walking is considered exercise
I guess if you weigh 200+lbs it's pretty hard now that I think about it actually
It doesn't matter how much it will help you lose weight, it's worth for the mental health benefits alone.
This explain more about the mental benefits.
Also what should I do about this?
Ignore bait posts.
For me, walking msssively improves my sleep and helps with depression and anxiety. It also makes me sharper and gives me more mental energy.
Enjoy your blasted knees.
If you gradually increase the distance you will eventually lose weight. I’m at 8 mi per day right now.
i hate americans who never even walk
yes it's a good way to burn cals. better than running for fat people because it puts less stress on the joints. obviously you have to do like 2 hours or more though. and make sure you walk at a good pace to get your heart rate up. no dilly dallying around.
Its nice great for weightloss and just overall health. Also is nice for recovery. I walk an hour every morning and night listen to music feels great.
You know what I used to walk everywhere. I was not fat. I moved to a place where there was nowhere to walk and I got fat. I would walk to the liquor store any time of day or night because it was 24 hours too. There aren’t any 24 hour places near me anymore. Walking is blessed walk anywhere and everywhere you can.
this was literally me until last year and I'm 27
Eat less. Or just stop eating altogether.
You can literally stop eating until you reach your goal weight. It's called a fast.
Lol I just back from a walk and every one of these apply to me except the jobless one.
Hey bros. OP here. I just went for a 10 minute walk. My legs got so damn itchy that I had to stop way through the place I was going. Hopefully as I continue walking the itchiness stops.
10 minutes outside shouldn’t make your legs itchy dude. There’s something wrong.
I'm very hairy and haven't exercised in a while so thats probably why.
Yes, but not if you stuff yourself full of food on the side. Any new avenue of calorie burning is a net positive. Go for a two hour walk in the forest just listen to the sounds around you. Not having music or noise blasting in your head while doing so does wonders for your peace of mind as well.
Get a bike. You burn many more calories per hour.
Slow cardio that burns mostly fat, so it's good for weight loss.
it's basically all i do for cutting. i stop eating my daily peanut butter (-250kcal) and go from 8k steps to 16k steps. never hungry and consistently lose weight/fat.

Walking: Most convenient / Worst Cal per hour
Running: Good middle ground / Risk of injury
Swimming: Best Cal per hour/ Most inconvenient
Cal per hour: Swimming > Running >> Walking
Sustained hours: Walking >> Running > Swimming
Low risk: Swimming > Walking >> Running
Convenience: Walking > Running >> Swimming
So basically walking is best unless you're a wagie that has no time to be human
Cardio-wise, yes. But wouldn't you rather finish your workout quickly and spend some quality time on 4chin, fren?
Sorry about the late reply, was out walking
I lost more than 20 pounds and counting walking just 3mi/day.
Absolutely yes, but only if you speed walk and/or walk on an incline. It’s because you must elevate your heart rate to lose weight. But yes, steady state cardio is good.
CICO. And CI > CO, but there is nothing wrong with working both sides of the equation.
Move your body a bit more _and_ do as much of a caloric deficiet as you can maintain until you reach your goals.
*Just* walking and making no other changes? Probably useless.
if he's losing weight, then by definition CO > CI
186cm
146kg
CW 80kg
I am drop 66 kg only by walking and strict cico without any exercise.
Fatmagic on /fat/y contest.
Yes I have lose skin and shit. Time for lifting some weights. OP pic it's just me
Walking is good LISS cardio which is good for burning fat, a good way of burning calories without intense hunger afterwards (think about how hungry you are after a swim, you DON'T get that from walking) and its better for your knees/joints as its less impact.
Walking is based, you just have to have the mental fortitude for the long distances/times needed to cover. If you're serious about 90 mins to 2hrs a day at a brisk pace will get you 10-15k steps, then anything after that is a bonus step wise.
Tie a walking routine like that in 5-ish days a week with a diet, a day for HIIT (sports, running, swimming) you'll see good weightloss results but importantly you'll be burning more fat from the LISS which is ultimately what you're after.
>t. 260 down to 180lbs.
Yes, it’s the best way imo. I walk about an hour a night on a treadmill at a standing desk while I play vidya or browse IST. 200lbs, 5’11, ~10% bodyfat, eat whatever I want including McDonald’s and Jersey Mikes subs multiple times a week. 1300 test, 50 e2. Natty
sure, if you got the time and perseverance.
I'd be too fucking bored of having to walk the same familiar round for more than 30 minutes every day.
Isn't that the same with all exercise? Lifting the same iron for 100s of times?
Not at all. You can change your path and pace when walking, that's the only variation you'll get.
Lifting involves a multitude of programs, exercises, techniques, movement patterns and neuromuscular adaptations you can spend years to master. There's endless variation. You also burn far more calories in less time.
Not OP but also in losing weight phase. How do you all feel about stationary bike? I'm going to keep doing it either way for now bc it's something I can/have been doing consistently. I have a normal bike and am going to start riding outdoors once I'm a little more capable/confident
Walking 12 miles a day and OMAD has given me insane weight results fast. I worked my up from about 7 miles to start with.
Just eat less
It's good for you.
This used to be me except
>girls don't even look at him
They always looked smiled and subtly flirted with me, it gave me motivation.
went from 180kg to 80kg walking 1-1:30h a day every day
its based if you have the time
Over what time period?
1 and a half years
got a fuckton of loose skin though but it is what is
How much can I lose in a month doing a 2-3h walk daily while fasting or at least doing OMAD?
I lost 20 lbs in two weeks doing then but then the weight loss slowed but still works
It's good but it's miniscule calories per time spent. HIIT is more efficient time wise and has greater return.
Depends on height, weight, speed, calories. Get your calories in check, exercise is just weight loss gravy.
Has anybody tried with a weighted vest?
Was walking my dog a good 20mi/day when i was unemployed and lost a lot of weight so walking definitely helps
weighted walking is pointless, kills your form, kills your knees, kills your ankles, kills your back
just run faster or longer or more or incline on a treadmill
Wrong, strengthens everything from the skeletal system up
stick with lifting and running
Buy an under desk treadmill. Walk every day, passively burning calories so you can eat more or lose weight. Also enjoy better focus on work or hobbies.
anyone remember when old ladies would hold little dumbbells while walking?
i still use theese regularly for pumps/stretching kek
I still see the odd woman walking outside with these.
walking imo is very very viable
just being in motion is viable
with walking more=better
if you can walk for 6-8 hours a day you should 2months and you wont recognise yourself
also walking i feel just gets the blood pumping properly its just enough load for your body to sort everything out i belive its benefits are boderline universal for most bodily function's
nothing at all wrong with walking
Get a dog. They make it more enjoyable.
Yes. If it causes a caloric deficit.
I walk at 10 incline at 1.5mph and burn 300cal in one hourish. Its fine if you are listening to somethign or watching tv
So I grew up in New York. I was never IST or anything but not fat. About a year ago I moved out of New York and all of a sudden I gained like a lot of weight and it was so much harder for me to lose it. I really didn’t know why until I just realized, in New York you walk everywhere. Where I live now there is nowhere to walk to, you just drive. Even if I try to walk there are no sidewalks, just 2 lanes with no shoulder they you are praying to not get hit by a car walking on. Now I’m making an effort to walk, even if I don’t have a reason for it.

YEAH WALKABLE CITIES WOULD BE AWESOME BUT THERE IS ONE PROBLEM:
BLACK PEOPLE EXIST AND ARE HOBOS AND SHIT ON MY WALKABLE STREET AND SHIT ON MY WALKABLE SUBWAY AND LEAVE THEIR FOOD IN FRONT OF MY WALKABLE APARTMENT THEREFORE I HATE CITIES
Hobos and jigaboos live in unwalkable places too. Just look at California. No one walks there and they have tent cities.
So don’t walk? You can still take your car everywhere fatass. We just want alternatives to driving.
if you eat more than the walk burns (not that hard, like the second post said it's really not that many calories) you won't lose weight.
ive been walking 4-5km a day for 6 months and changed my diet a bit and i've lost 20kg
the only real excercise for weightloss is fork putdowns, lardo
A friend of mine lost about 100lbs from extremely strict keto and walking.
By strict keto I mean STRICT. He would not eat anything that had even one carb. He would prick his finger several times a day to measure the ketones in his blood stream.
