WALKING on HILLS as GOOD as RUNNING for WEIGHT LOSS!
Some experts (myself included) note that walking (briskly) is actually better than running for losing weight.
One reason is because just about ANYBODY can walk and walking is much less stressful on the body than running.
For those looking to boost the amount of weight lost from walking, I recommend finding some hills.
Walking hills increases heart rate which radically increases your calorie burn. I once saw a study that said a brisk walk up a hill had the SAME cardiovascular benefit as running on level ground!
Besides, hill walking does a lot to tone your backside, legs and calf muscles. By toning muscles and working them out, you increase your metabolic ability to drop pounds. And you will look damn fine too!
