power walk

Vigorous pedestrian exercise

Power walk is a brisk, purposeful walking pace maintained for exercise, faster than a stroll but not quite jogging.

The arms typically swing deliberately to increase intensity.

As a verb, to power walk is to engage in this activity: She power walks through the neighborhood every morning.

The term sometimes describes walking with urgent determination: He power walked past the receptionist into the CEO's office.
