Anti-ageing experts agree that brisk walking is brilliant if you want to lose weight.

The good news for the less energetic is that over-exercising is bad news for ageing as it encourages the body to break down its collagen and fat stores, leading to a more drawn complexion.  On the other hand the right form of exercise, done moderately and regularly, is the best form of exercise you can do for your body and your skin.  Experts recommend brisk walking as it encourages the body to slowly shed stored fat, build muscle and boost circulation - great news for the long term health of your skin.

The overall health benefits of power walking are amazing, too.  Not only can it burn fat, reduce blood pressure and cut cholesterol, it can also prevent your brain and bones ageing.  As walking is a weight-bearing exercise, it helps build bone density and wards off osteoporosis.  Power walking also offers the same cardiovascular benefits as running but puts 50% less stress on your joints.

To get you going all you need is some time, a pair of walking shoes and the motivation.  If you need a goal you should enter one of the many moonwalks held across the UK to raise money for breast cancer.  Their official website provides advice on training programmes and other handy tints.
