Do you want to lose weight? Walking may give you more benefits than going to the gym. According to a study by  Dr Grace Lordan of the London School of Economics , women of all ages and males over 50 who walk more than half an hour a day briskly and vigorously weigh less than their peers who attend the gym. Those who walked regularly weighed less and had a tighter waist than those who regularly attended the gym. So walking makes you lose weight, yes.

Now, while arguing for years that walking makes you lose weight, because it is an activity that, done at a brisk pace and daily, allows us to have the benefits of physical activity and burn calories, I am not convinced that based on the body mass index as a parameter to evaluate the thinness of those who walk compared to those who go to the gym is a correct criterion ; clearly, those who go to the gym do muscle work that, by allowing them to increase lean mass at the expense of fat, also makes them weigh more, precisely because, for the same volume, muscles are much denser than body fat.

In short, the body composition between those who walk and those who play sports could be different . Also, saying that someone who walks weighs less than someone who goes to the gym is generic. It’s hard to be thinner than a professional marathon runner, for example, while it’s easy to expect to undoubtedly weigh less than a bodybuilder. But what percentage of body fat does a bodybuilder have? Here, maybe he has less fat than us.
Jordan talked about regular gym-goers engaging in moderate-intensity activities.
Its purpose was simply to show that anyone who doesn’t have time to go to the gym, time or money, can always use 30 to 60 minutes a day for a brisk walk. In short, walking works.
