Want to reduce your risk of dementia...by up to 50%? Then get in 10,000 steps per day! It can be as simple as that, believe it or not. A report published in JAMA Neurology found that walking 10,000 steps each day has a profound effect on the risk of dementia - it can cut it in half! Even walking less steps, just 4,000 daily, cuts the risk of dementia by 25%. (And if you aren't into counting steps, the study found that 30 minutes of brisk-paced walking aligned with a 62% decline in the risk of dementia.) These findings are AMAZING, and  shows how regular exercise can be so beneficial to our physical AND mental health.


It is also why walking is one of my favorite exercises! The benefits of walking (aside from this great dementia prevention news!) is that walking can: 

- Build muscle strength in your legs and core - important to help us stay strong as we age

- Burn calories and fat to help you stay lean and healthy

- Promote flexibility and balance, so we move with confidence and grace

- Promote the health of your heart and helps keep your mood boosted

So if YOU want to get in your 10,000 steps a day, join my FREE Walking Challenge! This Challenge is one of my most popular Challenges, as you get everything you need to get moving each and every day, on your own or with friends and family! It's a wonderful way to ease into regular exercise, or perfect for those who already workout consistently and want to have some fun with it!
