Yoga consumes about 200 calories per hour, and running consumes about 600 calories per hour. This means that if you want to burn the same calories, you will spend more time running. In a word, 1 hour yoga is equivalent to 30 minutes of running, but the exercise intensity between them is very different.
Running is an aerobic exercise, which has a good training effect on cardiovascular system and aerobic endurance. Running consumes more calories and burns more fat, which can reduce weight and improve heart and lung function. Although yoga and running are both beneficial forms of exercise, it is impossible to directly transform their effects. The specific exercise effect also depends on the individual's physical condition, exercise intensity and duration.
Whether it is yoga or running, there are some suggestions to follow. First of all, do warm-up exercises to avoid injury.

After exercise, cool down and stretch to promote muscle recovery.
