Jogging is a form of trotting or running at a
slow or leisurely pace. The main intention is to increase fitness with less
stress than actually running, instead of competition.
Jogging is a "high-impact" exercise that
places strain on the body, notably the joints of the knee. As a result, some
people choose to take up "lower-impact" exercises such as stair climbing,
swimming, aquajogging, cycling or walking instead of jogging. Jogging is
often used by serious runners as a means of active recovery during interval
training. The runner who may just have completed a fast 400 metre repetition
at a sub-5-minute mile pace, may drop to an 8-minute mile pace for a
recovery lap.
Like other types of aerobic exercise, jogging is an excellent means of
improving cardiovascular health, bone density and physical fitness.
