People looking for a good cardiovascular or aerobic exercise may not need to invest in a gym membership or treadmill. According to Rally Health , a digital health experience that helps you make simple changes in your daily routine, walking can be an effective cardio exercise if one goes at a brisk pace of at least three miles per hour. Walking at this pace can effectively push the heart and lungs to work hard without adversely affecting the joints in the way that other aerobic exercises might. Harvard Health says that walking of any kind can help people maintain healthy weights, lower their risk for various diseases, keep blood pressure in check, lift mood, and strengthen bones. A number of studies also show that walking can help people improve memory and avoid age-related memory loss.
