00:00:00.593 --> 00:00:03.650
Incline walking and running can both provide useful

00:00:03.670 --> 00:00:06.661
cardio. Start with the purpose of today's session:

00:00:07.107 --> 00:00:10.577
building a habit, practising running or keeping activity

00:00:10.597 --> 00:00:13.548
easier. The right choice depends on that job

00:00:13.594 --> 00:00:14.973
and your current tolerance.

00:00:15.740 --> 00:00:18.145
A steep slow walk can feel harder than

00:00:18.165 --> 00:00:19.210
a relaxed jog.

00:00:19.497 --> 00:00:23.593
Speed, slope and duration all change the task.

00:00:23.919 --> 00:00:27.109
Compare manageable effort rather than treating every walk

00:00:27.129 --> 00:00:30.226
as easy and every run as the same

00:00:30.246 --> 00:00:30.932
workout.

00:00:31.657 --> 00:00:33.782
Running practice fits a running goal.

00:00:34.095 --> 00:00:36.872
Walking can fit a general activity goal.

00:00:37.145 --> 00:00:39.150
Either may become too hard at the wrong

00:00:39.170 --> 00:00:41.547
setting. Look at how the session fits your

00:00:41.567 --> 00:00:44.625
week, including strength training and recovery.

00:00:45.371 --> 00:00:49.254
Incline walking is not automatically gentle on every

00:00:49.274 --> 00:00:50.586
joint or tendon.

00:00:50.886 --> 00:00:53.970
Unfamiliar steep walking may challenge your calves and

00:00:53.990 --> 00:00:55.955
feet. If you need to hang on to

00:00:55.975 --> 00:00:59.032
maintain the setting, lower it and reassess your

00:00:59.052 --> 00:00:59.724
comfort.

00:01:00.467 --> 00:01:02.738
Try the two options on different days at

00:01:02.758 --> 00:01:04.470
an effort you can control.

00:01:04.769 --> 00:01:07.800
Note breathing, comfort and how you feel the

00:01:07.820 --> 00:01:10.930
next morning. Change one variable at a time

00:01:10.950 --> 00:01:14.820
rather than increasing speed, slope and duration together.

00:01:15.589 --> 00:01:18.393
The calorie display cannot predict your long-term fat

00:01:18.413 --> 00:01:21.124
loss. Choose the mode you can repeat around

00:01:21.144 --> 00:01:24.441
sleep, meals and the rest of your training.

00:01:24.754 --> 00:01:28.277
In Bali's heat, adjust effort instead of copying

00:01:28.297 --> 00:01:30.248
a familiar cool-weather pace.
