    Hi all,

    i walk for 30 minutes and i jog for 10 minutes in the morning and i repeat the same thing in the evening, is it safe or is it fine ?

    What you are doing is fine. When you are sedentary and just starting an exercise program it is great to start out with walking and build your way up. Once you can easily walk for 30 minutes at a brisk pace you can add in the jogging for 2-3 minutes and build on it. Be careful not to jog at to high of a speed. Your goal should be to jog at a slower speed for a longer amount of time. This will allow you to maintain a higher HR for a longer amount of time.

    I break up my exercise into two sessions so I can get a full 60-90 minutes in. I usually do some type of cardio & add weights into the mix.

    With the high temps at midday and early afternoon it's probably far safer for you to do two smaller workouts like you suggested, morning and evening.

    I seem to remember reading somewhere that it's actually more beneficial to do two 30 minute runs than one 60, but can't remember why!

    I do 30 days shred on a morning, walk 1.5 miles in my lunch break and walk 3 miles on the treadmill in an evening. Way I look at it is it's all still exercise and burns the calories so will help. Good luck!
