If you run a mile,do you burn off more calories than if you walk the same distance?!?
Anyone qualified in Sports Science or similar please answer this.
Answers:
Running uses less energy because you do it quicker. It may seem like more but you are just using the readily available emergency energy. Running utilizes the spring in your muscles and the ruthm of your weight.
Walking requires prolonged constant muscle activity and gives time to draw from the long time stores (fat)
Yes, because ti takes more energy to move at a faster speed.
Although I am not qualified, it is yes, running burns more
of course
yes
duh
Yes more juoles are used in more intense activity.
Yes you do. But running is very hard on your joints. Long term (which is where the health benefits come in), a brisk walk for 3-5 miles every day is your best bet.
well yes of course silly head. running uses more energy than walking. if you run a mile you are a lot more winded than if u walk a mile right??
yes since your body is using more energy while runing then walking there for burning more calories
Yeah. and in less the time.
Yes u do burn more calories running a mile, than walking a mile, because you heart is pumping faster, so your body is working harder.
Technically, for the same amount of distance, the work done is the same. So, at the moment you stop running the mile, you burn the same calories as walking the mile. You run harder but in less time, which equals to walking longer but going at a slower rate. Some of these answers here assume the duration time of walking and running are the same..untrue.
However, your body reacts to strenous excercise and your muscle will form microscopic 'tears' (the reason why legs hurt the next day). When these tears are in the process of healing, the muscle becomes bigger and tighter. It takes a lot of calories to maintain muscle so in fact, you are continually burning calories after you run.
When you walk, your body just goes, "oh, this isn't strenous, no need to build more muscle."
No you don't.
You burn off more running. Your body has to work harder to cover the distance quicker (muslces, heart etc all working overtime compared to their use while walking).
I am not qualified but the answer is yes since the heart rate is faster than if you walk. This results to more energy being used by the body to supply oxygen to your body.
i think so!
Running a mile and walking a mile would yield the same calories burn. The only different is that you finish sooner if you run. Let say you spent 10 minutes running and 10 minutes walking. Ten minutes of running would burned more calories than 10 minutes of walking.
yes you do. the amount of calories you burn is directly proportional to the amount of work you have to do, therefore the faster you walk or run, the more calories you will burn because it takes more energy to move faster. if you want to try it out just go to a local gym and get on a tredmill that has a calorie counter and watch how long it takes to burn calories in slower speeds verses faster speeds
Of course you do are you that stupid??? No offence.. If that was the case no won would ever go for an evening jog to get fit they would always go for a walk!
not so sure here, but it also depends who does it. some people will run and some will walk and have the same intensity, so who burns more. i think it depends on the person and his fitness.
also we are talking about the same distance. so you use up the same energy if we are talking about the same person for both activities
Well. when one runs he/she exerts much more energy than one who walks!
eg; if a 5'10" moderately active male weighing 150lbs walks at a speed of 3mph for 10min he burns 50 calories. however; if he walks at a speed of 5mph for the same amount of time he burns 93 calories!
No . both the same, although your heart is going faster is is not going for as long !
no, a mile is a mile no matter what pace you run it at. walking or running will both burn the same amount of calories. the only thing that would change that would be a person's weight. a heavier person will burn more calories during a mile than a smaller person.
running burns very slightly more, but there's not much in it, whether this is down to actual work done, or the "afterburn" I don't know.
However, consider running for 30 minutes or walking for 30 minutes, you will burn far more calories running because you've travelled further.
YES
Yes
no its the same
What's my motivation? Am I running from a monster?
Well I know a lot of people have said yes, as if it's obvious, but I heard that it's not true. The logic in that being that you are still actually doing the same amount of excercise. You are doing the same distance but you will be running for less time than if you were walking. If you were running or walking for a certain amount of time then you would burn more calories by running, but for the same distance, it won't make much difference, if any, because running does burn more calories but you would be walking for a longer time. If you see what I mean.
no
