Which is nothing. You also do know that when you STOP running, the "fat burning element" stops where it continues on, throughout the day, when running sprints?ccrunner609;1195193 wrote:I will not engage in arguments about exercise. I know what i know.

Running's Rewards And Risks: Running reduces the risks of heart disease and diabetes, helps maintain your weight and improves brain health. "There's very good science that running for even 30 minutes or so doubles the number of brain cells in certain portions of the brain related to memory," says Reynolds. "Running is wonderful for the health of your body." But the injury rate among runners, she cautions, is extremely high — with as many as 75 percent of runners getting one injury a year. "So running can be very hard on the body at the same time it's very good for the body," she says.
Humans Were Made For Walking: Walking may be the single best exercise that exists on the planet, Reynolds says. It's low-impact and has a relatively low risk for injury. "Walking appears to be what the human body was built for," she explains. Even 15 minutes will reduce your risk for heart disease and diabetes.

You do realize that if I were to walk 45 minutes at 4mph or run 20 minutes at 6mph....I would burn more calories in half the time? You do know that dont you? Also, walking is ineffective in making permanent physiological changes like stroke volume of the left ventricle, capillary bed density, mitochondrial formation, nerve fiber conduction. You do know that dont you?
I will not engage in arguments about exercise. I know what i know.

You're still going to be better off walking or running sprints and tightening up the diet.ccrunner609;1195200 wrote:Oh please, economical running on a soft surface and wearing proper shoes isnt going to "beat the hell" out of anyone. We arent talking about marathon training. We are talking about jogging around for 20-30 minutes to maximize fat burn and ramp up overall metabolism. Lets not confuse this thread with talking about running 40-50 miles a week.
Now you talk about diet and carbs. What you do to refill the coffers after a workout isnt exclusive to "running". If you eat like shit after any workout you are going to see no improvement in muscle appearance.

So explain to me why distance runners look like emanciate Ethiopians while sprints look like muscular thoroughbread racehorses? The longer you stay in steady state cardio the MORE muscle you will burn off.ccrunner609;1195202 wrote:you do realize that sprints are purely anaerobic dont you? That means you are burning fuel at the cellular level with the presence of oxygen. For cells to metabolize fats for energy you must be aerobic.

Most people don't want to beat the Hell out of their body running. Can get better results by walking and lifting heavy. Believe me, as you get older and testosterone starts rapidly decreasing, you will want to fight to keep as much hard earned muscle as possible. Why eat up that hard earned muscle with steady state cardio (running)?

What if you mix it up though? I feel like you guys (BR/Buckeye) are referring to people who jog every day. I tend to get a 7 mile run in about 3 times a week. Other days I am doing insanity, or stair sprints.
Thoughts?

Using this calculator (http://www.healthstatus.com/calculate/cbc) I got the following results:ccrunner609;1195228 wrote:and walking makes almost no physiological changes to the body. Burns a few calories and takes 45+ minutes a day to do that. I would rather jog for 20 minutes and burn more calories in less time. Like I said, we were talking about jogging a little to burn calories. We arent talking about marathon training,
As a 190lb man I would burn 302 calories jogging for 30 minutes.
I would burn 222 calories walking for 30 minutes.
If I up my walk to 45 minutes I burn 333 calories.
I'd rather walk for 45 minutes than run for 30. And I'd burn more calories in the process. And I don't slowly kill my joints.

How about this. I'll walk for 30 minutes and then do 5 minutes of sprints.ccrunner609;1195256 wrote:Like I said, wear proper shoes and run on soft surfaces and running 30 minutes a day doesnt kill your joints. Your 45 minutes of walking doesnt ramp your Basal metabolic rate like a higher aerobic exercise like running. your 45 minutes of walking burns 45 minutes of calories and that is about it. my running increases my metabolic rate for hours afterward. I burn more calories sleeping at night by running then if I just walked.

I personally hate running, but do it. Walking is rather boring. I'd rather bike or swim which are easier on the joints. What do you experts think about that?
