Walk this way

Fitness walkers tired of doing the same route over and over will love The Walking Deck: 50 Ways to Walk Yourself Healthy (Chronicle Books, 2005) by Shirley Archer, a set of illustrated cards that encourage exercisers to mix up their regimen to get more out of their workout. Among the categories are proper form, flexibility and toning moves, tips on how to monitor your intensity and progress as well as twenty specialty walks, including trekking on the beach, city streets or your favorite mountain trail. Mindful pursuits such as the Meditation Walk allow the journey to turn inward by focusing on breathing and relaxation techniques. For more information, visit www.chroniclebooks.com
