Do I burn more with easy or tempo runs?

I want to shed a few pounds. It is not that I am a too fat. However I could do without a beer belly. I want to start to run to improve my health and lose some fat. I am confused as to what kind of running burns more calories. Do I burn more with easy or tempo runs?

Morning Running :: This is good for me, right?

Answered by a doctor

So I've tried to get in a few extra miles in the early AM. I'm not a morning runner. I've tried before and I just can't get a decent pace going compared to what I can run in the afternoons. So this morning I did a tempo run and I hit a 7:20 pace for 3.5 miles. If I had run that same route in the...

Does having flat feet automatically mean you're an overpronator?

I'm 13, 5'6, 145 lbs and have EXTREMELY flat feet. Does having flat feet automatically mean you're an overpronator? because when I'm running I feel like I'm running on the outside of my feet. If so, I highly doubt there are shoes that are a mix between motion control and stability, because on...

Can i do any damage while running in wrong shoes?

Answered by a doctor

O.K....since my wife and I got back into running I knew it was important for us to go and get fitted for some new shoes. The shoes I have are WAY too cushioned for someone of my size. But I thought while I waited for payday to arrive (tomorrow) we could still use what we have. Just run soft and...

When you're too old to become a pro?

I am getting better and better each day. I keep improving all the time. I wish I entered competitions much earlier in my life. I could have become pro. I would appreciate your opinion on my problem. What are you supposed to do when you’re too old to become a pro?
