Walking/Running:
Top time per level is based on 10 MPH average. Lowest between 3 and 3.5 MPH
    Walking is one of the best
    lifetime sports. It's easy on the
    joints, you don't need a lot of
    fancy equipment, and you can
    burn calories, even though it's
    a more modest amount
    compared to some other
    activities. However, some
    people wonder, why despite
    their walking, they are not able
    to lose weight.
If the purpose is to lose weight, then there is a need of
putting in some extra efforts. Slow walking won't be good
enough to enable you to burn much of your calories.

If you desire to have a slim trim figure, then you need to keep
track of your average walking speed. There are different
factors that tend to determine the average walking pace of
humans.

Calculating average human walking speed means, to see to
it, as to how many steps you walk per minute. The motive for
walking differs from person to person. Some people go
about walking, so as to ensure health fitness. For them, the
right walking pace would be 3 miles per hour, which means
about 120 steps in a minute.

But if you are walking, to shape up your body, then walking
120 steps won't be adequate. You need to increase it to 135
steps per minute or to put it in other words; there is a need to
walk 4 miles per hour to ensure good results in weight loss
program. The target walking speed for aerobic fitness is
about 150 steps per minute. So, depending on your goal,
work on your walking speed to achieve the desired results.

    WALKING FACTS

  • Americans walk an average of 5,300 steps in a day.
  • Many health experts recommend doing at least
    10,000 steps a day.
  • People who wear a pedometer walk about 2,000
    more steps a day than those who don't.


    Jogging or running is
    terrific for your heart and
    lungs, and it improves
    your stamina. If you're
    trying to lose weight, it
    can burn calories more
    quickly than walking.  
    Jogging/running closes

the gap for diseases like breast cancer, heart stroke,
diabetes, hypertension etc.  It keeps your blood pressure in
control and helps a great deal in minimizing the risk of heart
attack. Not only that, it also helps to improve your immune
system, thus enabling your body to fight against various
types of diseases.  

On the negative side, running does put more stress on the
joints -- the knees, ankles, and hips. The key is to start
slowly. The general rule is to increase your time or distance
by no more than 10% each week. The reason to make that
suggestion is not because the heart and lungs can't handle
it, but the joints and muscles are a little slower to adapt to
the stress of vigorous exercise. Too much too soon, and you
can develop tendinitis or a variety of muscle or joint
problems.
