Of course it's good to walk a lot. Swimming is good too. If general mobility is your goal, that's good.
Despite the article, I've never heard of anybody who lost fat by doing either of those things. Well, maybe if you decide to give a month to hiking the Appalachian trail you will lose fat.
I sort of admire, or envy, people who do not think about their fitness.
How Fit Can You Get From Just Walking? Walking is good for you, obviously. But can it whip you into shape?
Nope. Unless feeble, walks are recreation and not "exercise."
"Barcelona, then, was a Catalonian Pyongyang: and it is important to recall that Orwell approved of it. At this stage of his development, he was an enthusiastic totalitarian, and the shallowness of his belief that such uniformity was a triumph for freedom and equality is rather startling in a man who, a very few years later, was to be the greatest literary scourge of totalitarianism in the world."
Hanania:
President of the University of Chicago with the best statement yet on the protests: “I believe the protesters should also consider that an encampment, with all the etymological connections of the word to military origins, is a way of using force of a kind rather than reason to persuade others… those violating university policy should expect to face disciplinary consequences.”
"It seems like you're saying, 'we want to be revolutionaries, we want to take over this building, now would you please bring us some food'."

John 15:1-8
15:1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinegrower.
15:2 He removes every branch in me that bears no fruit. Every branch that bears fruit he prunes to make it bear more fruit.
15:3 You have already been cleansed by the word that I have spoken to you.
15:4 Abide in me as I abide in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me.
15:5 I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing.
15:6 Whoever does not abide in me is thrown away like a branch and withers; such branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned.
15:7 If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask for whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
15:8 My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit and become my disciples.

Do you hate getting your "physicals"?
You have to discuss your life in detail, and expose your physical condition. Yes, they like to be Psychiatrists too if they are smart. I will submit to it every two years or so. One problem is that they always find something to look into even if it doesn't matter. But sometimes it really does... You do not want to end up like my brother-in-law who I thought was the fittest guy in the family.
My doctor is a gym rat - more so than I am - and about 50% grey haired. Looks awesome, and I do not. My fasting glucose was a bit high, so he asked me about my food habits. I told him that, normally, I have 2 coffees for breakfast. He said he was the same. I told him that lunch makes me sleepy, so I usually only have a banana except on weekends. He said he was the same. He asked me what I had for supper last night. I said Thai take out. Cashew Beef I think, which I shared with Mrs.
I told him my appreciation for beer and wine. He thought that was fine.
Then we discussed my blessed Ambien for sleep, especially on planes. He thought that was good, and gave me five refills. I told him that low-dose Doxepin works, but produces too many bad dreams for me.
Yeah, I have to recheck my glucose.

 Neither is terrible, but both kinda bland for my taste. Baked Brie is a very good dessert.
What's the difference?
(As usual, I do not support the idea of cheese as an appetizer. Why eat a filling savory thing before a good hunk of meat or a stew? )
Size and shape of the hole, watering, etc. from an expert.
Good advice.
