A recent study validates the 12-3-30 incline walking workout's effectiveness in burning fat, showing it uses a higher percentage of fat for fuel than running at the same calorie expenditure, but running burns more total calories in less time, making it more efficient for weight loss. The best exercise depends on individual preferences and goals, with incline walking being a joint-friendly alternative for those unable to run.
Incline walking is gaining popularity as a low-impact workout alternative to flat jogging, offering benefits such as higher calorie burn, increased muscle activation, and reduced joint stress. Experts like Tonyael Miller and Dr. Neel Anand highlight that walking on an incline can elevate heart rates more effectively and engage muscles like glutes, hamstrings, and calves more intensely than jogging on flat surfaces. Incline walking is particularly beneficial for those with joint or back issues, providing a safer cardiovascular exercise option.
