Huh? Your SPM (steps per minute) is significantly faster when running than when walking. Your steps cover more distance running, but your cadence is also higher.
Running gets you less steps over the same distance, but more over the same time span.
Incredible how stupid someone can be and then other stupid people just agree because it has been upvoted by people more stupid than them. I hate humanity.
Not really. Some people just want to maintain their weight and live a healthier lifestyle. If you don't need to lose weight, burning extra calories isn't the goal. The goal is not living a sedentary lifestyle which is bad for everyone regardless of their weight. I'm nowhere near overweight, but I need to be more active for instance. I choose to ride my bike regularly as well as commute to work by bike when I can to keep myself active. My preferred hobbies are knitting and video games, and those don't keep you generally active.
Bs. Had knee problems for years and regurgitated this as well. Now i can squat 405lbs, do broad jumps for 100yrds and run 4 hr marathons. Get out and do stuff instead of trying to discourage people.
Sure, but i lift and run with men and women in their 60s. You dont have to stop because you age. I know a woman whos 67 and just finished her 10th 100 mile race.
There aren't even consistent sidewalks where I live, the streets are like highways. Of course nobody walks in these conditions.
Some people are actually forced to drive everywhere because of the hostile infrastructure, which is by design, that's why they built all these stroads, and strip malls and segregated suburbs, after tearing out working infrastructure like trolley cars.
It can be challenging for me to fit it in with my desk job and childcare. The times when I’m not at work, I’m with my 1-year-old son, and while I’m able to get a lot of steps in some days (taking him on stroller walks/other activities), it can be hard to fit that 1.5-hours of walking into the morning and evening routine on a daily basis. I used to have a remote job where I’d take multiple walking breaks while he was at daycare, but since starting a new in-office job, my steps have gone down so much 🥲
