But once you wake up and walk for just 2 minutes you will totally love your decision to wake up and come for walk. Today I am going to share with you all the benefits of walking or running daily. It is not necessary that you have to go for walk or jogging in morning only. But the benefits of walking in morning are more when compared to other time slots. For example, morning walk/jogging increases the fat burning capacity of body.

Actually in afternoon and early hours of evening it would be too warm. So most of the people don’t opt to go in that time moreover in that warmth. You won’t be able to perform much and get exhausted much early. And you won’t get the sunlight in late evening hours, which is much required and is really helpful in several ways.

Many people even prefer treadmill over walk or jogging in gardens or lake side. It has its own advantages like whether it rains or whatever is the season you can stick to schedule. But the only thing one lags in treadmill is fresh air, which is very important for all of our body.

Fresh air supplies oxygen to the body which can do wonders to your health.

Still, whichever way you prefer, jogging is all about putting your body into continuous motion. Jogging is the oldest form of exercise and is one of the best form of aerobic activity.
