Is It Better to Walk or Run

Raul: Hi! I'm Raul from New Jersey. I've heard that walking is just as good as running for heart health. How far do you have to walk in order to remain healthy? Charles Campbell: Raul, walking is a great form of exercise. We in the American Heart Association feel like walking at a brisk pace for 30 minutes, five days a week is a great way to achieve cardiovascular fitness. It's also reasonable to walk very fast or even add jogging two to three days a week for 20 minutes or so to achieve about the same level. It's worth noting that more aggressive exercises such as high intensity exercise is probably good for you as well, if you can do so without avoiding injury. For most of my patients, I try and get people to walk 30 minutes, five days a week at a brisk pace.
