See walking is not really very helpful but, running is. Most of the people on earth walk daily but even then many of then are not healthy! Running is helpful because it will, increase your heart rate and your muscles will stressed, which then make your muscles cells healthy. Walking doesn&#39;t give &quot;much&quot; stress  to your muscles. Hence almost no &quot;cell growth&quot;.<br \/>\n You must use walking as way to start running.
