Walk the mall for exercise!

Walking is great exercise, especially for older adults. Malls can be great places to walk because they provide a sheltered indoor space free from traffic and hot weather. Here are some of the benefits of walking in the mall: Malls are pedestrian-friendly. They have level floors, benches or other places to rest, water fountains, and accessible restrooms. You don't need special exercise equipment, other than comfortable walking shoes. Walkers of all ages and fitness levels are welcome. For a complete workout, combine mall walking with strength, balance, and flexibility exercises from Go4Life. Share this tip sheet on social media: Twitter: Malls are great places for indoor exercise.
