<br>Need Another Reason to Housewalk? It Just Might Save Your Life... 
<br>For a while now, we've been touting the joys of housewalking, a.k.a. walking around your domain (or walking in place) whenever possible, rather than just sitting around. It's a fantastic way to become more active. Well, it turns out, there may be serious benefits to our new favorite pastime... 
<br>
<br>According to one recent study, simply being too sedentary could be more hazardous to your health than being obese. Regardless of a person's weight, the difference in the mortality risk between inactive and moderately inactive subjects was so great that study authors concluded that even a small increase in activity could have a major impact on a person's risk of death. 
<br>
<br>Another study found that sitting for too long is linked to a higher risk for death even if you exercise regularly. Of course, it's lower if you DO exercise, but the point is that time spent on your duff is not the friend of longevity. 
<br>
<br>So... let's get going! 
<br>
<br>Step 1: Get a pedometer. Monitoring your progress throughout the day is fun; it's like your own little challenge! Pick up a simple inexpensive pedometer, download an app for your smartphone, or use a schmancy fitness tracker. 
<br>
<br>Step 2: "Could I do this while walking?" It's your new mantra. If you're loafing around checking emails on your phone, consider doing it while walking in place. Talking on the phone? Stroll your abode. Watching TV? Walk in place! 
<br>
<br>Step 3: Set your own goal, and keep raising the bar. If a 10,000-step target is too much at first, aim for 5,000 steps. After a week, bump it up to 7,500. You just might surprise yourself with what you're capable of... 
<br>
<br>Step 4: #Housewalking. Wanna chat about housewalking with others, crowdsource tips on what to do while you walk, or just tell the world about your new habit? Head over to Twitter, and use the hashtag #housewalking. Then find some buddies, and keep each other motivated!
