Running To Lose Weight is one of the most effective ways to get your body in shape. It burns a ton of calories even when done for a shorter length of time, and tones and strengthens the lower body. With the right training program, anyone can start running and turn their health around.
When you first start out, don’t expect to hit the track for a five mile run. Unless you are already in shape and your body is used to regular exercise, you will set yourself up for injuries and eventual burn-out if you go too hard too fast.
The best way to start running is to use interval training. This simply means you mix short bursts of running with walking. Depending on your current physical condition, you may want to start off with just walking. Once you get into a regular routine of walking and can walk at least a half hour straight, you can start adding in short periods of timed running.
