Nice work. Was that hour and 15 minute walk in one go?
Ya i rode my bike to my buddy’s, we went for a 1hr 15 min walk, then i rode home.
I know walking isnt the best exercise but my buddy isnt in good enough shape to run.
It’s still good exercise. It’s hard to believe, but with all things being equal, walking burns more calories, and it take more effort from your muscles than running.
In running, you’d want your body to move as efficiently as possible. With the elasticity of your muscles and tendons, running doesn’t demand as much effort as walking does, nor does running faster necessarily mean that you’ll burn more calories covering the same distance.
Walking on the other hand, doesn’t make full use of our momentum. It takes more energy to go fast while keeping yourself from breaking into a run.
It’s a good add-on if you need something extra to help burn fat. More importantly, knowing this should bring to question the point of why you’re doing an exercise, or in other words what you want to get out of it. 
It’s just some things to think about. By the way what kind of loads are you using for your weight training at this point?
Thats basically why i walk. Just to burn some extra calories while im eating like a horse trying to pack on muscle.
Im pretty weak and out of shape still, but im going rather heavy (for me) on most of the bigf lifts (bench press/pull ups) and a little less so for smaller muscles like arms. For forearms (palm up wrist curls ets) i like high reps (15-20 reps). I like to train close to (if not completely to) failure. For some reason i feel like im cheating if i stop early.
Ill do this for a month or so and then mix in a few new exercises and maybe use higher reps.
For example:
Bench Press…3 sets 6,5,4 reps
Push ups…2 sets 20 reps
Incline Laterals…2 sets 9 reps
Military Press…2 sets 7 reps
Close Grip Bench Press…2 sets 8,7 reps
Overhead Extension…2 sets 10 reps
Sit ups…2 sets 15 reps
The actual weights are irrelevant (for this, obviously they are relevant). As long as i do as many reps as i can (or close to it) and continue to add reps/weight to the exercise over time, im happy. I dont lift to be like a powerlifter, i couldnt care less how much i can bench. I just want to get in good shape. I also concentrate on form as opposed to how much i can lift. I keep track of all weights and reps per work out to ensure that im moving up in reps/weight regularly.
