Walking is superior for fat loss compared to running in my opinion because it makes you less hungry and you can do it longer.
I also think electrolytes play an important role while fasting. Maybe they also help you keeping saturated, like when we crave food sometimes it's because we need more salt, of you'd drink some salty water that could keep you saturated as well for a while (just my theory)
Also there are like hunger periods when I'm fasting but then disappear after a while.
Mostly I'm more hungry in the morning, like 7-8 a.m. and at the afternoon, like 1-2 a.m.
But mostly between those times I'm not hungry.
Maybe you also get less cravings by fasting more frequently.
I wonder if rucking would be a nice step up to burn more calories, but I guess it will make you more hungry than just walking.
I think walking would be also great after a workout, like when you go to the gym in the afternoon or evening, then have dinner and then do a walk for like 0.5-2h and then go to bed.
It would help getting those nutrients faster into the muscles I guess and would also increase your sleep quality by setting your inner clock by getting some evening sun and it would lower your stress levels which all should contribute to growing muscles.
I think saunas have a simmilar affect but it also has something to do with heat shock proteins but idk how it works
Ice baths, IR therapy and sauna is something pro athletes are doing to increase their recovery. I think all types of walking/running have their benefits
Walking burns calories without losing muscle or getting hungry
Walking with weights burn more fat amd are great for your joins and building muscles and endurance
Jogging/running is great for your heart & lungs and your cardiovascular system in general
Sprinting is great for building muscles as well.
If I also do weight lifting I'd do some Jogging for about 5-15mins as warm-up, too long or too intensive is contra-productive, bit more for lower body than upper body workouts. You can put longer runs & weightlifting like 8-16h apart I think and still getting the benefits of both, but I'd start slowly.
If you're getting sore muscles from either running or weight lifting and then doing the other thing after that that seems contra-productive to me.
