Most of us enjoy walking, but not everyone knows how to turn this simple exercise into one of the most powerful self-healing tools known to medicine. On Walking: The Ultimate Exercise for Optimum Health, Dr. Andrew Weil joins Mark Fenton, the nation's foremost expert on walking, for an invigorating 2-CD program that gives you all the tools needed to begin a daily walking practice. On Part One, Dr. Weil and Mark Fenton explain the proven ways in which walking helps you look and feel younger, reduce stress, improve immune function, achieve your ideal weight, and more. On Part Two, you get walking with a fully programmable workout that features two warm-up options and five intensifying sessions, paced by cadence cues and motivating tips for each phase.
There are dozens of resources on walking for better health but none with the ultimate walking coach alongside America's most trusted complementary health-care physician. Whether you're a seasoned walking enthusiast looking for an edge or taking your first steps toward a healthier tomorrow, with Walking, anyone can put their best foot forward to make the most of this enjoyable and life-changing exercise.

      Between Dr. Weil's conviction that walking is the best exercise and Fenton's upbeat dismissal of objections, procrastinators won't have a chance. How can you argue that you lack 60 minutes a week to improve your health? Weil and Fenton (an expert on walking) explain how walking is a "silver bullet," addressing health issues from obesity to diabetes to osteoporosis. Weil has a wonderful way of sounding as though he's talking extemporaneously without ever repeating himself, and coach Fenton is so irrepressibly upbeat and enthusiastic that you can't help but feel like lacing up your sneakers. The first CD offers persuasive facts about the health benefits of walking; the second includes a workout with audible pace cues that set different tempos for different levels of walks. J.C.G.
