Heart Mag - March 2026 is all about walking. This post explains how to make walking count for heart health using a simple session structure (warm-up, steady walk, cool-down), Borg RPE and the talk test, plus a gradual progression plan that avoids doing too much too soon. It includes a 7-day walking streak and a 4-week base-building challenge.

Falling off track is normal. The fix isn’t guilt or “catching up” — it’s a restart plan. This post shares a 3-stage relapse plan (reduce load, rebuild routine, progress slowly), a 48-hour restart rule, and two SMART challenges to get momentum back without overdoing it.
