Which will help in losing weight...Jog or brisk walk ?


Answer:
It really depends on your body type and the level of activity you've had over the past few months. I'd like to first say it's best to ask your doctor!But otherwise, if you are ever unsure, you can test yourself by going out for a jog for about 30 minutes. If you are too tired or winded, try taking brisk walks until your lungs are accustomed to exchanging large amounts of air, and your heart gets accustomed to working harder.Then you can start jogging!The source I listed below claims brisk walking burns about as many calories [for women] as jogging.
Whatever it takes to get your heart rate up, that's the key to weight loss.
They say that 30 minutes of brisk walking every day is the best way to lose.

Hello!A brisk walk will help you in cutting down fat. Whereas a jog will help you develop your cardiovascular (c.v.) system %26 help you burn fat %26 put on muscle. Regards,Vinay
both. depending on time taken. a brisk walk of 30 min daily helps in lose weight and a jog of 20 mins helps lose weight too. many people really do not know what a brisk walk means, so better try jogging. initially start with 10-15 min then can increase to longer duration.
You want to get your heart rate up but not too high. Around 124 bpm depending on your weight and age. So a brisk walk should do it. The treadmill at my gym has guidelines written on the machine.
Both. Which ever is the easiest for you. Do it. Then, try to switch over to the other one for variety sake.
Be good to your body. It will help you to prevent heart trouble.
Both get your heart rate up either way. Choose what you are most comfortable doing. If you are just starting out though I would recommend that you start at a brisk walk and work your way up to a jog and maybe even a run.
Whichever you can keep up for a longer amount of time - the goal is to keep your heart rate up for a prolonged period of time. Thus, running for 10 minutes would be less effective than jogging for 30 minutes.
Any type of exercise will help with weight loss as long as you keep it up. I would not recommend jogging because the impact can lead to oseto-arthritis, especially if you're overeweight. Fast walking would burn almost as many calories per unit time. If you can do 30 minutes of this type of circulatory exercise 4 times a week or more, it will definitely help. Don't expect immediate results, though. It takes 3-4 months before you start noticing. If you later add another exercise, some type of strength training (weights, calesthetics, etc) would be a good second method.
Both. But I would go with brisk walking. Jogging can damage your joints if you run on concrete, possibly leading to arthritis down the road.
I think both of them are quite effective ways if you are regular.
Just see what you are more comfortable doing. these both are ways people all over the world suggest . if you are really overweight I'd suggest you to start with brisk walk because you'll soon be out of breath jogging.
if that's not the case you can start with either of them.
If you're an asthamatic like or have any breathing trouble (which I hope you don't) I'd say you should go for brisk walk.If you are very keen on losing weight you can start swimming, aerobics, dancing or yoga as well.
A little control on your diet with this workout can create wonders.
Wish you luck!
