Is walking the same as running?
The effect of the two is different.

Walking is much less exercise than running. Walking is basically just your feet moving, and the amount of exercise is very small. But running is a kind of whole-body exercise, not only the legs and feet are moving, but also the heart and lung system is running, and the amount of exercise is greater than walking. You rarely sweat when you walk, but after running, you are sweating all over.

Of course, walking and running correspond to different people. For the elderly who are no longer agile, walking is a very suitable exercise for them, and they can only accept such a large amount of exercise. But for young people, running is more suitable for them, and running can play a more physical exercise role.
