Science-backed walking—alternating brisk and easy pace—
matched to your fitness.
Alternate three minutes of brisk walking with three minutes of easy walking. Shinshu University research shows this can improve strength and endurance far more than walking at one pace.
Arujikan suggests intervals for your age and fitness level. Voice guidance lets you focus on your walk without staring at the screen.
What changes when you alternate brisk and easy walking?
Shinshu University research shows that alternating brisk and easy walking
compared with usual walking can:
- Increase strength by up to 10%
- Increase endurance by up to 20%
- Reduce lifestyle disease risk
Effects you won’t get from walking the same pace—backed by research.
