I walk for 2 mins every day. Is that good or should I do better?

I feel like I could do more exercise.

I'm assuming that's a type-o? Maybe you meant 20 minutes?

Is it more than you could do before? Then it's good. Keep progressing by increasing time or speed.

2 mins? I would hope that's a typo. Regardless if you feel you could do more then do more

20 minutes is good but there's no reason why you can't do more if you want to. With my Fitbit I frequently have over 30 minutes every day of activity

IDK, 2 minutes kind of falls in line with his other post: https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/comment/42786507#Comment_42786507

2 minutes? I feel like we need more information. Are you an able bodied person? Just from walking around the office during the day is probably a lot more than 2 minutes

Be bold, be brave. Throw caution to the wind and walk 3 minutes.

I think if you really push yourself you could do 3 minutes.

jemhh

Are you walking forward or backward?

Maybe it was a silly walk...

Try hopping on one foot for 2 minutes instead. Or maybe mix it up and play hopscotch.

Two minutes, does that include walking to the bathroom or walking to the refrigerator?

AnvilHead

Do some Prancercise and really feel the burn!

I'm training to ride a metric quarter century on the bike. Does anyone have any idea how I can fuel for that?

25 metres? I think that calls for a Big Mac and fries.

Beer and rolled tacos.
