What this walking workout is like

Rise and GLOW with this new walking workout. No jumps, no squats - just a gentle full body cardio that will wake up aaaaaall your muscle and get to ready to conquer the day And the best part?

The pace stays steady and conversational the whole way through — this is one to do on a day when you want movement without effort. Both feet stay low throughout: no jumping, nothing that lands hard, and nothing your downstairs neighbours will hear. You need no equipment at all — trainers and a patch of floor about the size of a bath mat.

Who it suits

This is a good one to start with if you are new to walking workouts, coming back after a long gap, or want the moves called out clearly before they happen. If your balance is still finding itself, stand behind a dining chair and rest a hand on the back — that is a sensible adaptation, not a compromise.

Fitting it into your day

Expect around 1,200 steps, which is roughly 0.5 miles at an average woman's stride. Short sessions add up exactly the same as long ones, so two of these in a day counts as a proper walk. Want your own numbers rather than an average? The steps to miles calculator works it out from your height.

Common questions

How many steps is this 10 minute walking workout?

About 1,200 steps, which is around 0.5 miles at an average woman's stride. Bigger steps and higher knees add more.

Is it OK for bad knees?

It is one of the kinder ones: no jumping, and no squats or lunges, so nothing loads a bent knee. Keep the steps small at first and stop if a joint hurts rather than just works.

Will my downstairs neighbours hear it?

Very unlikely. Both feet stay low, so it sounds like walking across a room. Trainers and a rug or mat make it quieter still.

Is it good for beginners?

Yes. The moves are simple, called out before they happen, and you set the intensity by how big you make them.

Do I need equipment or a lot of space?

No equipment, just trainers. You need a patch of floor about the size of a bath mat, indoors.
