13 Running Tips for Weight Loss [Infographic]
Running is one of the best ways to lose weight as it burns calories efficiently. Several studies have shown that running burns more calories than walking.
A study published in Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise compared 32,000 runners and 15,000 walkers and found that calories burned through running resulted in 90 percent more weight loss than calories burned through walking. That’s a huge difference!
Another interesting fact is that your body reaps the benefits of running even when you’re not running. Like other high-intensity exercises, running keeps your resting energy expenditure up even after you’ve pounded the pavement.
