    Yes, walking is considered cardio. You can even choose the different speeds you walk. I walk around 4 miles a day, it really adds up!

    Yes, and you can definitely lose weight doing it! That was my only cardio until the weather turned too cold and yucky in Chicago to keep it up. It's far more enjoyable than a treadmill and easier on my knees than a bike or elliptical! I think it would be fair to say that 40 pounds of my weight loss (at least) came from walking as exercise.

    It totally counts - I do 40mins every day and there's no way I'm missing those burnt cals. It's in the Exercise log with the different speeds (most of mine is 3mph :smile: )
