Coworkers walking outside.

Sometimes lunchtime is the only time you have to exercise. That’s OK! Walking at lunch can boost your health. Here’s how to succeed:

1.  Keep walking shoes and clothes at work. Then you don’t have to remember them each day.

2.  Ask others to go with you. Having a friend can make walking more fun.

3.  Put it in your calendar. If it’s scheduled, you may be more likely to do it.

4.  Pack a lunch each day. Have healthy food ready to eat when you’re done.
