At the outset, the Saudi Ministry of Health explained the importance of delaying walking for the period before the Maghrib call to prayer, as well as the importance of choosing the right place so that you do not become very tired and dehydrated.
The Saudi Ministry of Health advised that unaccompanied walking should also be avoided when suffering from chronic diseases.
And of course, stop walking when you feel dizzy, extremely tired, or have trouble breathing.
And the main health awareness platform of the Saudi Ministry of Health, “Live Well”, published a tweet via “Twitter”, in which it included the appropriate duration of physical activity for each age group.
