Is walking for 60min just as good as running for 30min for weight loss?
I hate running, but I still want to get healthy and do some exercise. I know that running is an excellent cardio exercise, but I absolutely hate it. Can I get away with power walking for twice as long (and about the same distance) instead?
(I know the other components needed for weight loss, like eating right and weight training - this question is strictly about running vs. walking)

The reason running is better than walking is because it raises your heart rate which is what helps you burn calories becaase your body is working harder and is therefore using more calories.
Running is better then walking, walking is better then doing nothing at all.

Hi Tori, Lets see.. one pound = 3500 energy so in case you wish to lose a pound per week. You must burn 3500 energy greater than what your frame demands to keep your present weight. Without figuring out wherein you're at now it's sort of complex to reply your query. But in case your frame demands 1800 energy an afternoon to keep your present weight, you might want 12,six hundred energy per week. If you diminished you every day calorie consumption by means of two hundred and exercised to burn a further three hundred an afternoon by means of the tip of the week you're going to have diminished your weekly consumption by means of 3500 energy and must have misplaced a pound. You would of direction broaden the load loss by means of consuming rather less on a daily basis and exercise a bit of extra. A speedy velocity at the treadmill for an hour = burn approximately 230 energy The ab exercise and weight lifting will aid construct muscle, however as for burning energy, they don't seem to be the great alternative. To burn energy you must get your center price up.
