WALKING IS BETTER THAN RUNNING.

Instead of jogging, most cardiologists recommend walking or brisk walking to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Walking is less stressful on the body than running.

Two of the most common forms of cardiovascular exercise are walking and running. You breathe more heavily and your heart beats more quickly when you do cardiovascular exercises, or cardio.

The chance of any stroke or heart disease is reduced when the heart beats more quickly since these aids in clearing out any material or plaque that is obstructing the arteries.

Better blood sugar, a better mood, better memory, a lower chance of dementia, and healthier cholesterol levels are all advantages of aerobic exercise.

Most people start their workouts with movement, which is a fundamental skill. The key to living a long and healthy life is to keep your body moving throughout the day.

This movement combines running and walking, frequently at a quick pace. Even though both of these workouts are excellent for the heart, most cardiologists favour walking or brisk walking.

Dr. Kamdin said in the online publication Lybrate, "Walking at a quick speed puts less stress on the heart and greatly reduces the risk of premature death, but running puts some level of stress on your heart muscles but does not seem to reduce the risks of early death.

Brisk walking lowers the risk of cardiac illnesses more efficiently than running when the energy consumption of the two activities is matched, according to a 2013 study that included 33,060 runners and 15,045 walkers. Running and walking both lowered the chance of developing high blood pressure for the first time by 4.2% and 7.2%, respectively, according to the study.

In addition, walking is a fantastic workout that supports weight loss for obese individuals as well as those with knee, ankle, and back issues.

Isotopic workouts are good for the heart, as Dr. Tapan Ghosh, Director and Head of Cardiology and Head of Clinical Research at Fortis Hospital Vasant Kunj.

"A person's exercise regimen should consist of three phases: a warm-up, a pick, and a cool-down. These three stages should involve isotonic workouts. A person needs to be at ease, dressed comfortably, and well-hydrated. Don't have a strained mentality, be tranquil," stated Dr Ghosh.

After calming down, one should perform a 10-minute warm-up activity. After releasing all your joints, walk for 10 minutes at a moderate pace before picking up the pace for the final 20 minutes. After then, slow down for the next ten minutes to calm down.
