Is it better to jog faster for short distances, or pace yourself for a longer distance?

Is it better to jog faster for short distances, or pace yourself for a longer distance?

I'm trying to lose the 40 pounds I gained when I was dating a fat chick.

do both, eventually you'll be able to run longer distance faster
training both will increase your endurance and speed faster, it's what all the athletes do

What he said. But also either way you exercise just maintain a good diet.

You'll destroy your joints hauling your fat ass. Eat less.

For burning calories long distance always. Get on a bike, it will destroy your knees less and you can comfortably do 2-4 hours of cardio, which burns a shitton of calories even if you're not pushing it.

Soooo, pace myself?

I've been walking at about 4mph for 90 minutes a day over the past week.

Also, read up on fasted training if you want to improve your body's ability to use fat as fuel.

good point
you need to start slowly and build from there in order for your knees to adapt and also have good shoes
or just go swimming and have some nice upper body cardio while you're at it

not to discourage you but 4mph is really slow for jogging, that's basically fast walking
going faster will make you burn more calories per distance and it will make you use less time, so a quadratic increase in effectiveness basically

>will make you use less time
Well, I'm on a treadmill so distance isn't an issue. The workout will always take 90-120 minutes, no matter how far I go.

Don't listen to this jackass, he doesn't know about diminishing returns. Running twice as fast won't burn twice as many calories, and you will last much less than half the time at a comfy pace. If you want to burn calories you have to put on hours at whatever pace you can manage. Or just use one of the many resources for calculating calorie expenditure and figure out what you want to do on your own.

not sure if trolling but what I meant was if you run a mile faster youll take less time per mile and run more miles in the same time
while also using more calories per mile
thus burning a lot more calories per time

>>what is e=m*v^2
the faster you go the more energy you use

So you're saying running in place or jumping rope don't burn calories or what?

What you need to do

1 MOST IMPORTANT. eat less calories than you burn. also - eat clean. veggies, rice, fish/meat etc.

your goal is to lose 40 pounds = eat less

what is your second prioritisation?

getting lean and mean? work out every other day, but keep yourself active with some form of cardio each day. walking 1-2 hours or jogging 30-60 min doesn't matter.

this is foul proof and easy to make a habit.

okay I'll bite
you still have a velocity when running in place and jumping a rope, just that relative to (all) your surroundings you don't move doesn't mean mass isn't being accelerated.
For example by running in place (on a threadmill) you have speed relative to the threadmill
when jumping rope you have a speed that's vertical (partially up and partially down)
Just because you don't move doesn't mean you don't have any velocity

>nobody mentions how many calories you burn doing exercise

Look it up, it's miniscule. Huge waste of time. Skip a meal, hell skip a day or two of eating and you'll be way ahead.

>2h biking at 15mph burns almost 1500kcal
>1500kcal being "miniscule" while on a cut

If you start moving at faster paces you can burn around 800 kcal per hour (even more if you really push it)
plus it's good for your hearth and stamina
I won't argue tho it's easier and comfier to just eat less, but that also has less benefits in terms of health

Both. It's going to suck at first, but after a while it feels great to run.
I've lost about 25 kilo from running and changing my diet.

I burn a thousand calories doing 2 40 minute walks a day. It's fucking easy and is a significant amount.

I stand corrected. Still

>two hours vigorous exercise
>sitting on your ass not eating

>I burn a thousand calories walking 80 minutes a day
No, you don’t lmao.

It's nice to have the option. I don't cycle every day while cutting, but sometimes I really want a greasy pizza and that's a way to get it. Plus it's an enjoyable activity.

OP, forget treadmills. The stationary bike is where it's at. You can burn almost 3x the calories.

There is literally no way you're burning that many calories walking for an hour and 20 minutes every day. Even if you were walking fast it's still a ridiculous amount of calories to burn.

Whatever step counter/app you're using is overestimating your calories burnt by a massive amount. Half it and it'll be more realistic.

unless he's like really fat
when you weigh like 150kg (335lbs) you actually burn this much by walking this long

It's better to first run longer then run faster. Ideally you'd focus on endurance before you focus on intensity. You can do some intensity stuff while training endurance and vice versa but you shouldn't be trying to improve both at the same time.

you mean sprinting vs jogging....

Attached: jog-vs-sprint.jpg (337x391, 28K)

sprinting or jogging doesn't make those bodies.

one person lifts for gainz while the other doesn't

I don't need to be ripped. I just need to not be fat anymore.

Then keep walkin, niggie.

>jog
I can guarantee you can't run even a mile at the pace those Kenyans do a whole Marathon. That chances that you can't even do half a mile are also pretty high.

This. Different tempos for different days. Do a fast day and then long, slower runs for recovery days.

sprinting doesn't get you muscles like that you dumb fuck.
sprinters lift weights to increase their explosive power so they can run faster.

no shit. But jogging eats gains while sprinting doesnt. Sprinting will increase your resting metabolic rate, helping to burn fat while not making you look like a cancer patient jogger

>jogging eats gains
Wrong. Show me proof of gains getting eaten without (a) jogging for over an hour and (b) not compensating for the used calories. Pro-tip, you can't, some studies say it boosts gains. It's not even the same muscle fibers being used as for lifting so it doesn't interfere much with strength training.
> Sprinting will increase your resting metabolic rate
So will jogging. You need to be pretty dedicated for it to happen tho, regardless of what you do, doing couch to 5k won't increase your TDEE or lower your bpm.

>being this misinformed

Stop please

12 min of HIIT sprints will increase your vo2 and RMR in a fraction of the time jogging does. I don't fuel my car and drive around in circles just for the sake of burning off fuel. Its asinine. Find me a "jogger" and i'll show you a weak faggot with bad knees.

just stop posting
posting pictures of extremes while you'll never be either in your life doesn't mean jack shit

It will also fuck with your recovery, assuming your goal is to become stronger.

>I'm trying to lose the 40 pounds
eat less
IF is good
fasting is fast

>Doesn't do HIIT
Not gawnna make it

10 - 12 min, 2x a week vs hours of running yourself into the ground like a douche.

it takes an hour of running at about a 7 min mile pace to burn 1k calories

Jogging is probably the most effective form of non-surgical gender-reassignment available for men. That's an exaggeration, but not by much.

The downsides of long distance running greatly outweigh the upsides, especially if you want to be muscular and strong.

Fighters need endurance work, but jogging is a substandard way to build it. They do it, but only because it's a dumb, unquestioned tradition.

Anaerobic training is just as good for cardiovascular health as jogging, maybe better, and it burns more calories over the course of the day.

This article states, that it is impossible to be both, good at jogging and ripped...
But then they say that alle boxers jog and they are ripped and have endurance too. Im kind of missing the point.

I love jogging a lot and I cant think of any better Cardio I can do without going anywhere. Only swimming would be cool, but I have no idea how to learn it.

>Well, I'm on a treadmill so distance isn't an issue.
Wtf. Distance is all that matters. Calories are a unit of energy. It takes energy to move x mass over y distance. If you run 5 miles in 40 minutes it's the same calories as walking 5 miles over 3 hours. Moving faster does require more power, so you will develop more muscle running than walking.

To lose weight you need to spend more energy than you consume.

t-nation is a broscience clickbait site, only the forum is worth Reading.

I'n not surprised by the amount of jogfags on this board. Have fun burning off your gains, using a cane, popping advils, and having a double knee replacement at 45.

Have fun never squatting 5pl8 without the use of PEDs

So, should I bike instead?

>So, should I bike instead?
if you want to go t-rex mode, yes.

I just want to drop the weight I gained from dating a fatty. I'm cutting calories, but exercise will help too.

My advice is to go swimming
nice full body workout that builds stamina and if you're not already muscular some muscle as well

I agree. Nothing burns fat like swimming. An hour of steady swimming makes me more hungry than any other activity. And its great for toning arms, shoulders and chest. AND it doesnt beat the body up like running.

Anything over an hour and I can’t feel my dick for a couple minutes after. Freaks me out.

Some asshole drained our pool as a prank.

Either sprint for short distances at maximum effort, or walk for a long time. Don't jog, fucks your joints.

if you;re fat, diet and low impact cardio to start with otherwise you risk fucking your joints

then do whatever - calorie intake matters loads more than physical activity
not saying you should stop, it's still hugely beneficial for your body and psyche

Your muscles still burn calories repairing themselves. Granted its not much but it still is more than the initial. Also, once you start building muscles, your nody is going to burn more calories to keep them in check. Muscular people give off more heat and burn more maintenance calories than fat people.

The effect is pretty small, it should be pretty low on your list of things to consider when deciding if/what to train. The difference between the TDEE of Mr.Olympia in competition mode and a fat blob of the same height/weight is less than 500kcal.

since E=(1/2)mv^2

you can conclude that if you ran twice as fast you would have to run 4 times less to achieve the same energy consumption
energy scales quadratically with your speed, but only linearly with your distance, so running faster is always preferred

Running faster isn't literally doing the same motion at twice the speed like a Tom & Jerry cartoon or Ugandan Flash cgi effect. Most runners keep a roughly 180 steps/minute pace regardless of distance and speed. The same goes for your metabolism and even car engines.

Not OP, but I've taken up jogging because it's literally faster than taking the bus to work, so it not only integrates exercise into my schedule but actually saves me time (I lift in my own time already and don't have time to spare for much else).
Do the pros outweigh the cons? If it's about 5km to work on foot, would the change in speed/distance work out to accomodate a sprint workout (plus, I'm guessing, a fair bit of walking) rather than a steady jog?

Are you trying to blame someone else for you being fat?

The first step in not being fat is to stop blaming other people for your own choices, so start there.
