Yes, you can, this heat rate monitor is great because it always keeps you informed of which zone you are. Measuring your hear rate during exercise ensures you maximize the time spent walking, running, lifting, etc.

It doesn't have an specific set up for walking, but it will monitor your heart rate and calories burned while walking

Yes. You can also measure speed and distance if used with the Polar S1 foot pod

well its monitors your heart rate if you want to calculate distance you will have to get one of two things you can either get a foot pedometer or can buy a Bluetooth heart rate monitor that will work with a phone device and your watch

It can be used to track calories burned while walking. Doesn't count steps taken

I don't use it while walking my dog. It's pretty big and would be hard for me to hold while walking my dog. I would have to some how hold the leash, a bag open and scoop. Not sure if that would be..... easy. I use it in my yard. I scoop it into a large black garbage bag.

for walking it would be fine.. i would not recommend leaving the pup outside alone on it for any lengthy times.. It's strong but i doubt it would hold up to persistent dog gnawing..

You can walk, but it will be very hard when you try to speed up. In other words it is designed for an average walking. that's it.

Yes you can use it while walking if you wish to know the distance you walked, you would just need to set the watch to running mode

I don't see why not. You would need to frame it. And I do t think it could support being walked on

It's really for walking only. You can run on it, but it is very loud and shakes a bit.

Yes. I have used it many times for walks in the neighborhood, especially at times when baby didn't like the bassinet of our regular stroller. I just had to be mindful of certain patches of sidewalk in our neighbor that were extra bumpy (really they are patches that should be repaired). It was perfect when we took it downtown for a jazz festival - it rode just fine and our other stroller would have been too big for maneuvering.

Sorry, no. My son wanted it for walking around - never worked right where we live.

Yes. It has a squishy gel that will allow you to walk -- if needed. I wouldn't use it and expect to walk around the entire time. When I have my foot wrapped, I elevate and relax. But I've had to get up to answer the phone or get a glass of water and was fine walking in it.

No. I find that it doesn't work while walking. I had hoped that it would. :( I actually don't like it at all. And, have only worn it once.

Yes, you can set it to pedestrian mode and it cuts through plazas and parks with ease. I've used it for walking in Europe and it's very good at it. Just be sure to set it back to driving when you get in the car or it will take you to impossible turns. Ask me how I know! :(

Not really. I suppose if you wanted to prop your iPad up and hold the buttons while walking in place, you could. This works best with excercising equipment like a stationary bike or elliptical.

Yes it can if you are on relatively flat areas. For mountainous or hilly terrain, I would use a "real" walking stick.

I don't think it would be adequate as a good enough support. This is more for a child that walks somewhat well, and has good balance. Hope this helps!

Hi Brenda, I don't think it will help with walking gait, but I'm really not sure.However, the hip rotation can be improved. :)

No. In fact this toy is so large it's better treated as a static toy that you play with and around. Attempting to make it walk is just an exercise in futility. It does have a handle on the head that can be used to pick it up and move it.
