Working out doesn’t need to be extreme to provide great results. Simply walking for 30 minutes at a pace that gets your heart rate up can help lower risk of high cholesterol and blood pressure. This Get-Moving Walking Plan for beginners is a four week guide to get your legs beneath you and get you moving! As always, though, if you have questions about your health or whether this walking plan is right for you, be sure to check with your physician.

*RPE: Rate of Perceived Exertion. RPE is a self-measurement of how hard you feel you’re working out, with 0 being no effort and 10 being heart-pounding, sweat-dripping super hard. Aiming for an RPE of at least 5 will help produce the best weight-loss results.
**Cross-train: Choose an activity, other than walking, that you enjoy. It can be cardio or resistance moves—anything from swimming to yoga.
