No offense to the guy but it clearly shows this guy is all "consumer stuck up" and probably does not think outside the box if one day the Society system fails. First of, the "gym" is not free and secondly why on earth would I want to go to the gym to get exercise if "exercise" is practically what you want to to be for FREE. I have lost count the miles I have walked from point A to point B. Just because one drives does not mean "walking" is overrated. Just the read of that comment makes me cringe for the simple fact that walking is natural and beneficial for your body. Not being forced to go to a gym and that's that.

Did you also know that people who walk/run get more exercise than all the gyms combined?? and guess what it is FREE no membership to join/fees. Not saying don't go to a gym. Its just the gym shouldn't be the only way to exercise (again being sucked into the system to get you to pay) I know you're a better person than that.

And another thing its not just the body that benefits from walking but also your mental state. Why do you think you see runners running around in circles at a park?? or at the beach or at a side walk.

As far as i know Walking/running is the only exercise that truly takes you out of the "noisy/stressful environment" or take a timeout from the system or society.

Walking/running fits in the same category of breathing why because they are both free which=one thing less on your "mind". Its no wonder people these days are dying younger.
