Mall Walking - What do you think ?

Hi greenline. Is that true? Well, if it is, I have the advantage for that because I usually go to the mall with my siblings and do some window shopping. We love hanging out in there. Luckily it's only a walking distance from our house and we are always able to go there. And now that I discovered that it can help, maybe I should do it more.. Thanks for this discussion!

Yes, I agree with you. I too sometimes feel same, We feel lot of relaxation while looking many kinds of thing in mall. We also pay our attention to the interesting and attractive things. So, I am totally agree with you.

Mall walking is better than not walking at all, so if that's what it takes, then it's good. I would rather walk outside, though... or even in my house. I don't enjoy all the people at the mall and I don't window shop often. If someone does, though, it would be a good way to get exercise.

Do you mean instead of taking your power walk outside you walk inside the mall? Or do you mean window shopping? I don't power walk.I'm lucky I guess,I do a lot of walking during work. I love window shopping though.I could and have spent an hour in a mall just walking around.

They do say that walking 10 minutes a day non stop will help with your physical well being, that is easy to do in a large mall. The problem in most malls though is that either I window shop which means walk a few paces stop and look maybe go inside and repeat, or it is extremely full and walking is limited. I prefer closed malls in winter as the lights compensate for the shorter days. What I do though is where possible always use the stairs, the problem is most places have either lifts or escalators.

I have never been mall walking before but there are a lot of people here that do it. I think it's a great alternative in the winter time here. People can continue their regiment even though it's freezing outside.

Oh yeah normally I love walking around the mall, even if i don't really have money to spend. It is fun going into all of the stores, especially the obscure ones, or the beauty/bath ones to try out samples, and just have fun while killing time. Today was the only day ever that I cringed at the thought of walking through the mall, my parents wanted the food court for dinner, but with my shingles being on my leg, I hate walking because its painful. So I had to pass and I just made my own dinner at home while they were out walking at the mall, I saved myself a lot of discomfort.

Yes, i do. I absolutely agree with you, that is does give me ralaxation and good exercise. I usually go with my girls and they too enjoy it and have a goodtime.

hi greenline, i am not at all participated in mall walking,i do regularly walking in my home only,instead of going out side due to some problem i am not going out side,but when ever i have chance i will walk accordingly,i know walking is good for health,have a nice day

Yes, I sometimes go to our local mall here in Jasper to walk. I haven't done it in a while but I need to get started back. When the days were warmer, I walked outside around my house a lot and it dawned on me a few days ago that I need to start going to the mall to walk again. I especially like to go around christmastime. I remember one year, they played christmas music over the intercom and that made my walk more enjoyable. I think the mall is a good place to walk when it's too cold, too hot, or raining outside. Kathy.
