Watch This Shredded Guy Explain How Walking Helps Him Stay Lean A.F.

Outside of the gym, Tomic finds opportunities to get his steps in as much as possible. One of his tips may be more applicable now than it might have been just a few months ago: he puts his earphones in and walks during all of his meetings and calls. "If I look back at the data I have, the days that I'm the busiest are actually the days I'm the most active," he says. "I find I'm much more focused, I'm paying a lot more attention, I'm more in that flow state in general, so it's a very good way to enhance productivity as well, and it's very easy to implement."

Tomic adds that he tends to do the same during other, more passive activities like reading and listening to podcasts: "It not only helps me with my fitness, but I'm also retaining information a lot more, and I'm getting ideas." He also recommends making walking a social activity, whether that's catching up with friends or even a date. "When you're out for a walk, it's a shared experience," he says. "You're moving around, conversations are flowing, it's just a lot more engaging."

His main advice is to make walking a part of your daily routine, perhaps going for a walk first thing in the morning to blast away the cobwebs, or in the evening to relax, and to then look for opportunities to add more walking, like parking a little further away, or taking the stairs rather than the elevator.

"All these little things do add up," he says. "That's essentially what a healthy lifestyle is, it's a set of small habits, it's the small decisions you make over time that then become a part of your lifestyle."
