TweetWalking on a incline will keep you at your target heart rate for fat burning for a consistent level during the cardio. If you run your heart will be cranking and have more of a cardiovascular benefit than fat burning. Im sure somone else will explain a bit better

TweetWhitetail is right.. best way to put it without getting techinical. Also, the incline works as the resistance.
Another thing to take into consideration is that walking does not jar your knees and lower back. Much less stress.

TweetIVE ALWAYS LIKED WALKING INSTEAD OF RUNNING BETTER ON THE KNEES

TweetI'm a futbal player and like to run...but for purposes of cutting right now i can do the walking thing...but when it gets closer to the start of the season i'll have to start running to get into shape i guess

thanks

Tweettake 220 (-) age (x) 85% and 65%
that will give you your target heart range. also called the fat buring zone. if you train above that for too long you'll start burning muscle instead of fat. walk at an incline for now towards the top of that range for at least 20-30mins 3-5x/wk to burn that fat off.. worry about your cardio endurance later

Tweetfor burning fat..i always said : u need to fast walk on incline and do notttttttttttttttttttttttttt run...

TweetIncline walking targets the VMO which is very important in patellar tracking. This very beneficial for people with need pain or instability.

Tweetimho, this is one of those debateable subjects, in reality i feel it's an issue of bodyfat, nutrition, and what results u want

if you're overweight u can run till your hearts content, imho, when u get down too 12% bf or so, u need to monitor intake, nutrition, and output, especially cardio, i pick 12% because imho, u can notice alot of muscle mass loss with doing too much cardio

TweetYou don't want to burn muscle mass, just the fat - that's why incline walking is always more popular esp. for us bodybuilders. I personally do incline max at 15, speed at 3 or 3.5 for 45 mins..and I'm soaked.
