Walking! The most underrated form of Exercise

At Mojo, we spend a lot of time talking about movement—how to move with freedom, how to move more, and how movement changes lives. But one of the simplest, most powerful tools we recommend is also one of the most overlooked: walking.

Walking is medicine. And it’s free.

You don’t need a gym membership, fancy equipment, or a perfect training plan. All you need is a bit of time, a willingness to move, and ideally, a comfortable pair of shoes.

The benefits? They’re staggering.

Why We

Walking to Everyone

- Improves cardiovascular health

- Boosts endurance and energy

- Supports joint health and mobility

- Helps manage weight and blood sugar

- Improves mental health – reducing stress, anxiety, and even symptoms of depression

- Sharpens focus and mental clarity

- Supports better sleep and emotional resilience

Even better, walking builds momentum. The more you do it, the more your body craves movement. Over time, you’ll feel stronger, more energised, and more capable in daily life.

Bodies Were Built to Move

One of the hardest truths we see in clinic is how quickly health declines when people become sedentary. When movement stops—so does strength, mobility, bone density, and even confidence.

But the fix? It’s beautifully simple:

Start walking.

It doesn’t have to be perfect. You don’t have to hit 10,000 steps a day. You just have to begin—and keep going.

There’s No “Right Way” to Walk

It might mean a lap around the block. It might mean a stroll through a park, walking meetings at work, or a few minutes around the house during a break. These little bursts of movement add up—and they matter.

Want a little extra challenge?

• Try rucking: Walking with a light weighted backpack to build strength and intensity.

• Take on a personal challenge: Walk a long-distance trail. Explore an unfamiliar part of your city. Disconnect from tech and reconnect with nature.

  
  

Walking Reconnects Us With Life

One of the most beautiful things about walking is what it brings you back to—your senses, your surroundings, and yourself. You begin to notice the seasons, the way your breath moves, the way your body feels in motion.
