Running or incline walking: which one burns more fat? š„
Honest answer: the one youāll actually keep doing.
Both burn calories. Running burns more per minute. Incline walking is easier on the joints and easier to recover from. But fat loss doesnāt come down to one workout. It comes from a calorie deficit held for weeks and months.
So stop looking for the ābestā cardio. Pick the one you can repeat 3 to 5 times a week without dreading it, without getting hurt, and without it wrecking your recovery for strength training.
For most of my clients in their 40s and 50s, thatās incline walking. For some, itās running. Both work when the food and the consistency are in place.
