Does running make your heart rate faster than walking?

Answer 1

Both walking briskly, uphill / against a force (like the wind, for example), or for long periods of time can increase your heart rate as this is considered exercise. Walking to your car in the morning or down the hall in your house probably won't do much to your heart rate.

Answer 2

That is a good question! Fast walking will increase your heart beat to the reasonably high level. In fact you consume more calories in fast walking than some body, who is jogging with you. But then the target heart rate should be 180 beats per minute. As the age advances the target heart rate can be reduced to lower and lower level.
