Quick walking is better rated than jogging
Results showed that with the same energy consumption, pedestrians enjoy a higher health benefit than runners, according to a report on Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology.
The effect of two types of movements for participants, aged 18 to 80, was observed for 6 years before experts drew final conclusions.
Accordingly, jogging reduces cardiovascular risk by 4.5%, while fast walking reduces to 9.3%.
The risk of developing high blood pressure for the first time decreased by 4.2% in joggers and 7% in pedestrians.
Meanwhile, the same risk of diabetes decreases about 12% for both types of activity.
