In brief: The calories expended and the substrates used by walking vs jogging were compared in nine young men who walked and jogged at 65% maximum heart rate (HR max) (about 125 beatsĀ· min(-1)) for 60 minutes and 75% HR max (about 145 beatsĀ· min(-1)) for 45 minutes. Jogging utilized more total energy and more fat energy than walking at both intensities. In addition, the men perceived jogging to be less strenuous, and oxygen pulse, an indicator of cardiovascular efficiency, was higher during jogging than walking. Recovery energy use was greatest after jogging at 75% HR max.
