What is jogging?
Thanh Nien newspaper quoted Times of India as saying that slow jogging is similar to walking, but at a higher intensity.
Jogging is considered a great alternative to running, like jogging with speed walking.
Typically, a slow jog consists of about 45-50 steps in 15 seconds.
Jogging is good for your health, helping to improve respiratory, cardiovascular and muscle function.
What are the benefits of jogging?
Here are the proven health benefits of jogging:
Increase endurance
Lao Dong newspaper quoted Healthshots as saying that according to research published in the Journal of Internal Medicine, running slowly increases your aerobic capacity, making your running process more efficient and increasing endurance.
Jogging helps reduce pressure on muscles and joints
Reduce the risk of injury
Compared to high-intensity running, running at a slower pace puts less impact on muscles, ligaments and joints, reducing the risk of injury. A study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that runners who ran at a slower pace had a lower risk of injury than those who ran at a faster pace.
Increase fat burning
Jogging primarily burns fat for energy, so it can be a great exercise for weight control and body fat loss.

Tri Thuc Tre quoted the NFPT page as saying that the Road Running Club of America (RRCA) has provided some guidelines to help people determine the appropriate slow running speed.
If you can complete 5,000m in 30 minutes, maintaining a pace of 6:00/km: Start jogging at a pace of 7:27/km
If you can complete a half marathon in under 2 hours, maintain a pace of 5:35/km
