00:00Morning walks can do more for your health than simply getting you moving.
00:03Walking in natural morning light may help regulate your body clock and support better sleep.
00:09Getting outside before 10 a.m. may also help reduce exposure to the sun's strongest rays.
00:14Those rays are typically strongest between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
00:18A brisk walk can raise your heart rate and improve oxygen delivery throughout the body.
00:23Regular walking is also linked with better heart health, circulation, mood, and muscle strength.
00:29Experts recommend at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise each week.
00:34That can mean about 30 minutes of brisk walking on most days.
00:37If 30 minutes is difficult, you can split it into shorter sessions.
00:41And you do not need to reach 10,000 steps every day to benefit.
00:44The key is choosing a realistic walking routine and sticking with it.
