Unlike running, jogging is slow and requires less energy. Jogging is usually done as a warm-up exercise but can also be done by anyone who doesn't wish to go for a very hard workout routine. Here are some surprising benefits of jogging everyday.
Weight Loss
You don't really need to sweat out hours in the gym to lose those extra kilos. Do you know, jogging for 30 minutes can help you burn around 300 calories? Making jogging a part of your workout routine will help you improve your metabolic rate which further helps in quick weight loss.

Jogging is a great exercise for your heart. When you jog, blood is pumped at a faster rate to your heart and this also helps in maintaining your blood pressure. Jogging helps you keep any heart problem at bay.
Boosts Immunity
Jogging every day helps you improve the production of white blood cells in your body. Jogging is one of the best ways to boost immunity. This fitness activity makes you strong and healthy.
Good For Your Mental Health

Tips To Keep In Mind
- If you have never gone jogging before, consult your doctor. This is important especially if you have any medical condition.
- You need to stretch and warm up every time before jogging. Never start jogging straight away. Do basic stretching and then walk. Slowly start to jog and then increase your speed.
- Have water in between to keep yourself hydrated.
- Dress in cotton clothes, don't wear clothes that are too lose or too tight.
