Walk Off More Weight

The stronger you are, the easier it is to go fast. "Strong muscles let you recruit more muscle power to propel you forward and also improve posture," says walking coach Lee Scott, founder of WoW Power Walk in Oakville, Ontario. Do these exercises three times a week, allowing at least 1 rest day between sessions.

You'll need a resistance exercise band (available at most sporting goods stores) for some of the moves. Aim to do 8 to 12 repetitions of each exercise. If you can't do 8 reps, use a stretchier, more flexible band; if you can do more than 12, shorten your band or use a stiffer one for more resistance.
