Walking vs running

[deathdroprob]

I only run when I'm being chased.

hahaha.

Would it be wise to do 2 Cardio sessions in 1 day?

Say a brisk walk 1st thng in the morning on an empty stomach for about 40 minutes, then go for a run for about 30 minutes at around 4 in the afternoon?
I think that would give optimal results

I have been doing 10 min on incline treadmill 8-10% at 4.0 mph, then 20 mins on stationary bike at 90 mph first thing in the AM in empty stomach. I am not sure what my HR is though. I need to buy one so I can track it. I have also been throwing in some bike at night too between sets of weights to keep the HR elevated throughout the w/o.

running only burns about 25 more calories per mile than walking, and walking has less of a disastrous impact on the joints

"running doesn't burn fat, it defines muscle"


"Walking burns fat, after 30 mins"

Which is true and which is the ultimate fat burner??

Both suck whats matter most if you are trying to lose any weight and not loss the muscle you have worked so hard over the past few months is HR! You can run you can walk you can swim you can take a shit for all it matters to me keep your HR at 65% of your Max HR and your body will burn fat and not your lovely muscles for energy. Also people need to learn proper cardio times. Cardio should be preformed only in 2 cases A. First thing in the morning on an empty stomach or B.After workouts when you can insure that your body is no longer using glycogen for energy and starts using fat.

PS: I didnt read the other pages so if this has been mentioned just ignore it.

Running burns a whole lot of fat and i really encourage you to do that if you are looking to lose weight. You might want to walk double the time that you ran, but running is a life saver and fat burner.

I have been eating very clean since last september. Started cutting and jogging at my 65% HR and I still have a little area of fat around waist. Under my belly butom to my love handles. Other than that I have 6% BF. Help??!!

from my experience high intesity interval runing it clean lot bodyfat but also muscles.Of course with good nutrition.
Fast walking on an empty stomach(70-75%of maximal heart rate)i was more satisfied and helped to preserve muscles.

As of lately I LOVE running... however I keep it limited to 2-3 times a week just to not burn too much muscle, and I also try to make sure it falls the morning after a high carb day as well!

Im the same. Since ive started playing more football (soccer), ive found that i actually like running now that im not as fat as i was. Im preferring the treadmill to the bike at the gym now too!

I want to try this balls to the wall sprinting on the treadmill. I usually walk 5 minutes at 4.5 then run at 6.0 for 30-45 min the walk again and call it good. The sprinting thing sounds like it may be an awsome challenge so since ive never done it can somone map it out for me? ty
