From The Bangles’ hit song, Walk Like an Egyptian:
Slide your feet up the street,
bend your back
Shift your arm,
then you pull it back
Life is hard, you know (Oh-way-oh)
So strike a pose on a Cadillac.
You might wonder if I do this type of Egyptian walking.
Nah.
But if I knew an Egyptian who was teaching it, and I needed a change of pace, and I needed to stimulate my brain with new ideas that put me into a different realm of results, then yes, I would.
Currently, the walking patterns I play around with each day do so much more good for my body-mind that they literally forced me to stop with the 10,000 steps, five-to-ten miles per day nonsense.
The coolest thing about all of this:
You don’t need more than 10 minutes a day with one or more of the eight patterns that I teach in Warrior Walking, but if someone comes to town and wants to go for a 10-mile hike through the mountains and woods, it is no problem whatsoever. You’ll smoke your former self.
Even though you don’t regularly walk even close to that many miles or steps each day, you’ll have so much energy and power in your legs that you’ll regard yourself with awe.
This means that, YES, you can add Warrior Walking to your 10,000 step per day regular routine, or you can just do Warrior Walking. Either way works.
But chances are more than excellent, if you continue walking the same-ole, stale, brain on autopilot way, your body is going to begin deteriorating and what used to make you feel good will begin destroying your body.
How can I say such an outlandish thing?
Because I have experienced it myself.
I used to subscribe to the five miles a day or bust mindset. If felt great. Until it didn’t.
Then I wised up.
Save your joints.
Open your mind.
Lubricate your life.
Warrior Walking – the Wonder Worker for body, mind and soles.
