3 Things You Shouldn't Do Just Before Brisk Walking

Trendzified

There are three things you shouldn't do right before doing a brisk walk.

1. Never eat a full breakfast. I often eat something before brisk walking but never a full meal. You may stand up or walk slowly around after a full meal, but don't walk briskly. It will cause more problems with digestion. After your brisk walk, then you can eat a full healthy meal. I said "eat a full healthy meal," not overeat.

2. Don't take stress with you. Leave stress at home---in fact, get rid of it. Never brisk walk or exercise with bad emotions or negative stress. It creates free radicals in you and that wouldn't go well with your exercise. It might even make things worse for your health. Make sure you're in good spirits when you go out. relax, be happy and enjoy your surroundings.

3. Don't neglect your toilet rituals. Never---I say again---never hit the road without emptying your bladder and sigmoid colon. Well, what I mean is, make sure stool in your colon ready for elimination should be eliminated. I can't fully describe the horror of needing to urinate or eliminate stool right in the middle of nowhere.

You usually take a bottle of water with you when you run, right? And then you get all excited and drink water now and then. But that makes your stool go down closer to the exit and fills your bladder with more urine, especially in the morning.

Now, imagine if you suddenly feel the need to go to the restroom and you're 5 miles away from home.

Besides, it isn't good for your health to be keeping them stuck up in you while exercising.

To help eliminate morning stool, I take 2 to 3 tall glasses of water first thing in the morning. And it's a big help, too, to eat nothing but vegetables the night before. I often eat pineapple to ease my bowels.
