  In the **[Mamamia](https://www.ricardoriskalla.com/media/category/mamamia)** article *“[Is walking actually enough exercise? We asked four experts to find out](https://www.ricardoriskalla.com/volumes/documents/mamamia/is-walking-enough-exercise.pdf)”*, fitness and health specialists weigh in on whether walking alone provides sufficient physical activity for overall health. Among the experts featured is **Ricardo Riskalla**, founder of RawFit and trainer to international models, actors, and athletes.

Ricardo contributes his professional insight by highlighting that while walking offers valuable benefits for beginners or those seeking gentle movement, it may not be enough for individuals aiming for significant fitness improvements. He emphasises the importance of incorporating bodyweight resistance training and functional exercises to strengthen muscles, improve posture, and support long-term metabolic health. His balanced approach reinforces the idea that walking is an excellent foundation — but for optimal results, it should be part of a broader, varied fitness routine.

Walking is great — but it’s only the first step.
