Does walking really Make you dilate?

My husband and I are walking every night up and down hilly streets for atleast an hour, and having more often. I heard those two things will make you dilate. Well I have to be dilated at least all the way to a 1 my next appointment on the 26th so they can set up a date for me to be induced on the 9th. My due date is the 17th. do you think walking that much and having every other night will dilate me at least to a one??
