Take a break from sitting and walk a bit! Power walk, mount your treadmill, elliptical- or crosstrainer to activate your cardio-vascular system and your muscles, and relax with this unintrusive virtual hike through nature.

5 minutes long, 600 steps, recorded at a constant cadence of 120 steps per minute, in 4k/UHD resolution. Perfect to silence that inactivity alert of your fitness tracker. Listening to your own preferred kind of music during workout is recommended.

You prefer a run over a brisk walk? Pause the video at the beginning and use the advanced settings of the youtube-videoplayer to change the video speed in 5% increments, with each increment adding another six steps per minute.

The video was filmed between Astfeld and Jerstedt, at the northwestern edge of the Harz mountain range in germany.

If you liked the video make sure to subscribe. "5-Minute-Walk-A-Bit" is a new concept for this channel to help you to prevent "sitting becoming your new smoking". Plans are to make it a weekly series, so the video choices will grow nicely over time. There will also be a number of new longer walks, to motivate and accompany you for longer training sessions.

Thanks for walking, and stay healthy!
