Walking for Exercise

Walking is a good form of exercise, as it provides many health benefits. However, making walking beneficial requires understanding and planning.

Proper Technique

While walking may seem like a relatively simple task, walking for exercise is different. The head should be up and the shoulders should be relaxed. Arms should be slightly bent and swung back and forth as one walks. While the heart should not be racing as one walks, the pulse should be elevated.

Planning

Walking for exercise should be planned, just like any other time of exercise. Set aside a certain amount of time each day. Sixty minutes of physical activity daily is recommended. However, if walking is a new form of physical activity, it is acceptable to start with a short amount of time and increase the time spent walking each day.
Remember, physical activity is important for one's health, and walking is a good form of exercise.

Read the passage from "Cinderella" by the Brothers Grimm.

The girl went out to her mother's grave every day and wept, and she remained pious and good. When winter came the snow spread a white cloth over the grave, and when the spring sun had removed it again, the man took himself another wife.

This wife brought two daughters into the house with her. They were beautiful, with fair faces, but evil and dark hearts. Times soon grew very bad for the poor stepchild. . . .

"Why should that stupid goose sit in the parlor with us?" they said. "If she wants to eat bread, then she will have to earn it. Out with this kitchen maid!"

They took her beautiful clothes away from her, dressed her in an old gray smock, and gave her wooden shoes. "Just look at the proud princess! How decked out she is!" they shouted and laughed as they led her into the kitchen.

Now it happened that the king proclaimed a festival that was to last three days. All the beautiful young girls in the land were invited, so that his son could select a bride for himself. When the two stepsisters heard that they too had been invited, they were in high spirits.

They called Cinderella, saying, "Comb our hair for us. Brush our shoes and fasten our buckles. We are going to the festival at the king's castle."

Cinderella obeyed, but wept, because she too would have liked to go to the dance with them. She begged her stepmother to allow her to go.

"You, Cinderella?" she said. "You, all covered with dust and dirt, and you want to go to the festival? You have neither clothes nor shoes, and yet you want to dance!"

However, because Cinderella kept asking, the stepmother finally said, "I have scattered a bowl of lentils into the ashes for you. If you can pick them out again in two hours, then you may go with us."

The stepmother is most likely motivated by

greed.
love for her step-daughter.
jealousy.
fear of her husband
