In the age of Fitbit and the Apple Watch many may think walking is only beneficial if you meet certain step goals. A new study, published Thursday in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine, suggests that might not be the case. Instead, experts suggest that regular walking, even without meeting minimum requirements, can lower a person's mortality risk when compared to being sedentary.
在Fitbit和蘋果手表廣為流行的時(shí)代，很多人認(rèn)為只有到達(dá)某個(gè)步數(shù)，行走才會(huì)對(duì)人有利。《美國(guó)預(yù)防醫(yī)學(xué)期刊》周四發(fā)表了一項(xiàng)新研究，表明事實(shí)并非如此。相反，專家認(rèn)為一般的走路，即便沒(méi)有達(dá)到最低要求，與久坐相比也能降低一個(gè)人的死亡風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。
"Walking has been described as the 'perfect exercise' because it is simple, free, convenient, doesn't require any special equipment or training" says doctor Alpa Patel. Current guidelines recommend that adults have at least 150 minutes of moderate or 75 minutes of vigorous physical activity a week. Only around half of adults actually meet these guidelines.
