Though, personally, I think that running would help burn calories throughout the body, using the lower body and the upper body while moving, and hence burning fat which will help with lose weight. The general principle for losing weight is to burn a portion of your calorie intake in order to lose weight. It depends on how much calories you are eating, and how much are you willing to burn\u2014of course, it is better to start slow and gradually build stamina while listening to your body so as to not get hurt. \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Friend G.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Both.
