Power walking is a form of walking that you mainly do outside or at an inside track. I do believe that the correct term for this type of walking is - RACE WALKING. You are walking real fast, not quite a jog with you arms moving fast at the same time and your hips are at a rolling gait.You need to be walking at least 5 MPH. I just did a search and there a whole bunch of web sites out there on race walking. Just type race walking in and you will come up with a bunch.
