Abstract

While the exact origin of humanity on Earth remains unknown, it is established that humans have been walking since the early stages of their existence. This research paper delves into the cardiovascular benefits of walking, highlighting evolving walking trends and methods tailored for contemporary societies. The study is beneficial to various groups, including older adults, young scientists, and athletes, presenting insights into the Japanese walking style, which advocates 30-minute sessions, and the innovative 6-6-6 walking method. Additionally, the paper explores Nordic walking as a rehabilitation tool for injured individuals, and emphasizes that the 6-minute walking distance is an optimal workout for older adults, underscoring its importance for improving their physical health. Walking meditation is an effective practice for soothing the mind while simultaneously appreciating the surrounding environment.
