I love Jogging
78I can’t wait to write this hub. Because based my experience and I like doing this activity. I want you to know that I was concerned about healthy life. So I try to life in the right way. I want to share the simplest activity. I know it looks hard to do regularly but I promise we’ll get a lot of benefit by doing this exercise. Now, I want to talk about jogging. This is like a daily circle activity for me. After prepare my slept to reach good quality of sleep. And then after wake up doing stretches, drinking water, take a deep breath, and then keep moving until my body felt warm. Before take a shower I love doing this exercise. I mean I love jogging. I usually do this four times in a week.
The benefit of jogging:
Doing jogging regularly gave us better condition and other health benefit. Jogging also gives physical and mental pleasures. I know most of us want a proof. This was commonly happen to us, before doing something or imitating others we need proof. Okay…. I’ll share to all of you the benefit of jogging. Jogging give us fixed benefits for overall health.
- Makes the heart stronger. Which increasingly facilitate blood circulation and good for respiration.
- Jogging is good to overcome digestive problems.
- Neutralize depression.
- Increasing capacity to work and lead an active life.
- Jogging helps burn your fat and good to overcome obesity.
- Jogging is also good to increase our appetite, if we have a problem with eating disorder.
- Jogging will strengthen legs muscle, thighs and back.
- Jogging make sleep more soundly.
What do we get from jogging?
Jogging is also give you pleasure, both of physically and mentally. If jogging has done correctly, you wouldn’t felt tired after finished your tour. You get nice feelings in your muscles during the jogging and afterwards. You will feel the wind blowing around your body and your face. You can listen to the sound of birds chirping. You can hear the sound of flowing water, or sound waves in the ocean (if you do so at the waterfront). Personally, I am glad to see the beautiful scenery during jogging and felt the fresh air. The best part is I can rest for a while from pollution. During the jogging you can also feel a sense of excitement.
Clothes and Shoes
The important thing before jogging is prepare something, like clothes and shoes. I thought we want something comfortable during jogging, right. The clothes you wear should match the weather conditions. In warm weather, shorts and t-shirt are quite comfortable to wear. However, if you choose the far distance route, you could bring extra clothes in a small bag, just in case if the air so bad. Choose clothing that can provide good ventilation, avoid full of stitches or the sharp edges which wrap your body tightly.
Jogging is related with part of leg, so better to wear soft and comfortable shoes. With the shape that fits for the leg. Select the base can be bent and support for every movement of your feet, so it does not make you slip.
Route and Jogging session
Jogging can be reach in various ways. If we talk about route is back to our condition, if we have healthy problem, better to consult with the doctor. There are many types of routes we can try. The long distance is between 2 until 20 km in regular speed. The short distance is between 3 until 6 km in high speed. For the average speed we can choose the distance between 4 until 8 km. Based on my experience, the quality of jogging is came from the regularly jogging and not depend on the distance. We can felt weak and tired if we choose 20 km once in a month. Better choose 3 until 6 km but twice in a week, right.
How doing a jogging session?
You can slowly moving with little effort in a few hundred meters to warm up your muscles for the first session. And then slowly add your speed. If you've done half the route, you can outrun your capacity. If the route is long enough, you can take two or three spurts using nearly full capacity. For the last hundred meters distance slowly your movement. For first of all, you must run at the same place for 10 minutes. Then you can add time, distance and speed when you get used.
Stretching your body after a couple of session
I thought we all know about this. So I recommend you to stretch before doing the first jogging session. It’s not just on your leg muscles, but also the whole body, do it for 2 minutes before and 3-4 minutes later.
When and how often
If jogging is the only one exercise, better do it once every two days. That was good enough to provide all health benefit and good to improve our condition to stay on top. But if you combine jogging with other sports, do it twice a week is good enough for health. You should not do jogging after eating, although you feel hungry. You can do it anytime, but it's a good idea to do jogging as the first activity in the morning. You can get fresh air in the morning and it is a good time to get sun rays which contain vitamin D.
.........................Happy jogging to all my friends..............................

The Benefit Of walking
Do anyone like walking? I think all of us like walking. Walking is the easiest activity and we all do this everyday. It's like simple aerobic and I believed that we do it well. Moving another place, like from living room to bedroom we need some walk. Visiting our neighbor we need walk also. Sometimes we don't pay attention from this activity. If we concern and serious doing this activity, we get a lot of benefit behind this. We get more healthy, we get fresh body doing activity all day long after walking. And I will post about the benefit of walking

Yo Prasetio!!! Your hubs are always crisp and pretty and this is no exception. Prasetio- you are like a Brother but I'm so old- maybe I'm that old uncle that smells bad, but I walk more now. But I've been hit by a couple of cars and the joints are a little shaky. So I ride my bike and walk. But I miss jogging. Great hub my Nephew!
Thanks, wwkeen for coming to this hub. Keep it up, my friend. Although once in a week, at least you want to move your leg and your body through jogging. ~prasetio
Welcome to this hub, Kay. I hope you enjoy this information about jogging. I'll check your link. Unfortunately I was very rare drank a cup of coffee. Thanks for share good input. See you....
My uncle, Micky. I am glad you want to visit this hub and you also love jogging. Sorry to hear that you have bad experience, because hit by a couple of cars. But I hope you never give up to try again. Uncle, I am very proud of you and know that you always keep your health. You age may be old, but the spirit stay young forever. I have to learn from you. Uncle, my love and my pray always for you. Take care!
Warm regards,
Prasetio
Great advice. I am a walker!
Great info. Jogging is a wonderful way to stay fit but of course doing it properly is important. I was a jogger in my 20's but realized that I was having knee problems. So, to assure I could still walk when I got older, I turned to bicycling and hiking. (still miss jogging though)
hello there prasetio; this is a good hub about jogging. I can not jog but i do lots of stretching. even walking is hard for me, but stretching has been my thing. It keeps me in shape and works well, keeps the blood circulating when one can not do many other things.
This is very good hub you did such a good job. I will be back to read more or your hubs. ~aloha~
Thank you for the very inspiring review on running. Jogging is a great activity many enjoy and most all of us could as well. It's so nice to be outside and breath good clean air as well. thanks and rate this up and all that is good. I love this Jogging hub. Peace :)
Prasetio,
I think jogging is not very appropriate for older people like me. Brisk walking infact is a better option for all. Jogging in the long run is not very kind to the joints, especially the hips, knee and ankles.
An off topic: I asked a question directed to you but somehow it was shown "public" and deleted by Admin for whatever reason. My question to you was why you don't have the "contact" option.
Good evening, POP. I am glad to know that yo are a walker. Keep it up, my friend. I hope you always healthy. Thank you very much.
Welcome back to my hub, Mulberry1. Good to see you again. I found your passion in doing exercise. Although you were having a knee problem, but you still walk, bicycling and hiking. As a young man I am proud of you and give my thumbs up special for you. Thanks for share your personal experience. Take care
Blessing,
Thanks, Sa'ge for coming to this hub and share your opinion about this topic. Although you can not jog, but you still have a spirit in doing exercise like stretching. That's make you always healthy and fit all day long. My conclusion is whatever exercise we choose it must suitable with our condition. Never push your self if you can't, right. But I believe it also give you benefit, especially for your health. Thank you very much.
Prasetio
Hi, Katie. Thanks for give big attention to this hub. You are right, my friend. Jogging is great activity and most of us can do this, with a lot of benefit behind jogging as well. We can felt relax by doing outside activity like jogging. Thank you very much for rate this hub. God will repay your kindness. See you again.
Nice to see yo again, Good Guy. I want to say, "Welcome back to my hub". I know it hard to do for older people. Beside jogging need good stamina, and older people don't have good stamina like younger age. But they can try short route, like a hundred meters maybe. But don't push our self if we can't. With many considerations, brisk walking is the best choice for older people. I thought we will got the same benefit for our health.
For the second question, I can't answer this, because all the things related hubpages area is belongs to the admin. I also get the same question like you a month ago. But I can't do anything. I hope you understand. Thanks for your kindness to visit this hub.
Prasetio
Yep, I agree with you Parsetio 100%. :D ~aloha~
Prasetio,
Sorry, off topic again; but this is the only place I can communicate with you.
I think the "contact" icon below your profile is an option which you decide whether to put it on. I think you did not activate it. You can see I have it in my profile page.
Prasetio, I am now a walker as I get too winded to run but I think jogging is great if you can do it. This hub makes me want to get active!
Thank you for this wonderful 'Physical Fitness Hub". I do little sprints, but don't jog. Thanks for sharing.
Good morning, I am glad you love this hub. Thanks for share with us. Good to see you again. ~Aloha~
Good guy, thanks for your attention. I have pick "allow others to contact". But somehow there's no change in my profile page. After you remind me about this, it makes me curious. Sorry I didn't pay attention to this. Actually it useful as a connector between us. I hope this problem will be solved soon and "contact" widget will appear as soon as possible. ~prasetio
Welcome to this hub, Pamela99. I am glad to know that you still move your body as an active walker. I thought you'll get the same benefit with jogging. Brisk walking is a good choice, after sweating you feel fresh. Thanks for share your experience with us. I really appreciate that. Have a good day.
Blessing,
Thanks, LillyGrillzit for coming to this hub. Wow..."sprint" is also good for you. Sometimes I combine my jog with sprint, but not too often. Good news from you. Keep it up, my friend. I hope you always healthy...amen.
An ingteresting hub as always from you. I love walking. Jogging never was on my list but it doesn't it is not very health beneficial.
Great hub. Well researced. You make me want to start jogging.
Well done. I too walk. I think if I jogged I would have black eyes. LOL
Great advice! I like aerobics myself, but think I may try jogging as it would be good to do early in the morning when everyone else is asleep and my music would wake the house. Thanks for the great advice and awakening me to trying something new.
Prasetio, you have a way to get me in the mood to do things I have not done for a long time. I’m going to dig out my jogging shoes and hit the road first thing in the morning.
I have always tried to walk or jog but this summer was so hot and unbearable. I have put my sneakers back on and I am walking again, this fall. Great timely hub with a lot of useful and inspiring material.
Good morning, Hello. Thanks for share your thought here. Walking is also the best for you. My friend, Keep it up. I hope you always healthy. Cheers...

Good morning, fetty. I am glad you want to share your experience in walking. But little advice from me. For the summer day, try to do this early in the morning. Where the sun doesn't hit your body. And the wind blow your body during jog. I hope this hub useful for you. ~prasetio
This is great advice prasetio30! Very detailed and discusses important steps to take before jogging. Thanks!
Jogging is great for stress and emotional pain. Years ago I ran 12 miles per week mostly to offset the frustrations of my personal life at the time as I was going through a divorce. Over the years, I have had to back off the jog a bit and look more to walking. But, the benefits of walking are very high so they should not be discounted in the exercise community. This was a good article...interesting and you made your points well. WB
Thanks, samiaali for coming to this hub. I hope you enjoy this information and you want to practice jog, at lease walk is good and useful for your health. Good to see you here.
Good evening, Wayne Brown. Thanks for share your life experience about jogging for us. Wow....I never thought that you ran 12 miles per week. Although you have change your exercise into walking. But like you said before, it's gave high benefit. I found many hubbers like walking, And based on our condition. Better to choose something suitable for our condition. Good to see you again. Wayne, your comment really appreciated and because you have big contribution in give us happiness.

I have tried this many times by select the contact widget on my profile edit. But somehow, why it doesn't work for me. I try to do this many times. I know many friend's of mine also wait this appear in my hub profile. But I'll try again.
Warm regard and blessing,
Prasetio
Cool Hub, my friend. As a woman who jogs every day and does a five mile run on the weekends, I love running, not just to stay fit, but its good for all-round health benefits. Running makes us more alert, more able to do our work, have better relationships, de-stresses us by letting off some steam, wow, jogging is all good! Great Hub, Prasetio. Cheers!

Awesome hub. The most important thing to take of when jogging is a really good pair of shoes. They have to be really good and comfy so that movement will not be restricted.
Good morning, hubpageswriter. Thanks for dropping by and share your opinion about this hub. You are absolutely right, my friend. A pair of shoes must be comfortable. We can move easily without felt any pain. Thank you very much. ~prasetio
I have not jogged for way too long. I used to jog quite a bit. Even at my age, jogging is wonderful. Not only for all the wonderful benefits that you have mentioned, but jogging makes you feel great all over and gives you an optimistic feeling. I always feel great for days after a jog.
Welcome to this hub. Actually I found your passion in jog. I am glad to know that. I agree with you, my friend. Beside all the benefit I've mentioned above, jogging is really good to give us optimistic feeling. I always felt like that. Thank you very much for add good advice about jogging. I really appreciate your comment. You always accepted here.
Blessing,
Hi prasetio I love jogging too i also play indoor Soccer, tonight in fact. I'm fifty eight and still very fit. I'm newish to hubpages but i am very impressed by how supportive you are of other hubbers. I have only just worked out how to 'follow' other hubbers due to having the wrong e-mail address but i can now be one of your followers and return the favour. I know how great one feels after a jog, it's money in the health and wellbeing bank. Cheers my new friend from sunny Melbourne.
Good evening, attemptedhumour. Thanks for dropping by and share your experience in jogging. I am glad to hear this. I thought your are healthy person, it proven with your testimonial here. That's make you stay "fit" in the age of fifty eight. Good to see you here. I hope you always healthy forever. ~prasetio
Great advice and well presented Prasetio. I love to go for a jog three times a week. It's good to get out, get fresh air into the body and feel closer to nature. The running is great for the body and mind and is a good way to distract us from the busyness that might be in our lives. Running is a release and can help us de-stress so that we return to our daily lives refreshed and ready to face and tackle whatever we face.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful hub and God bless and peace to you my friend.
richtwf, thank you very much for coming to this hub and share your beautiful thought. You made this hub so colorful. I agree with all you said before. This made us healthy, fun, relax and other benefit by doing jog regularly. That's why I choose this exercise as a routine activity. If I get bored with the track, I can try other track. This made me enjoy every time I jog. Love and peace. Cheers...
Prasetio:)
There are definitely many benefits to jogging. My son wants me to jog with him. Not so sure, maybe indoors. But then again, I keep thinking about it. So, who knows, I may surprise myself. Voted/rated.
My friend,Support Med. Thanks for always support and vote my hub. I thought your son has a good idea to invite you jog with him. But it back to us and depend our condition. Never push your self if you felt uncomfortable. But always positive thinking. I thought treadmill is a good way to jog indoor, right. Brisk walking also a good choice. Have a nice day!
Love and peace,
As always, GREAT Information! I do alot of walking and weigth lifting! I voted-up!
Thanks, drpastorcarlotta for coming to this hub. I am glad you do a lot of walk. That's good for your health. Your vote really appreciated. Take care!

Written well...I voted it up..
Thank you very much, breathing. Cheers..
Jogging is good, but jogging outside is so much better for your body and mind. If you are jogging outside make sure fou change what you are running often so you done injure yourself. Switch it up and jog on the road, grass, sand, trails and tracks to keep your legs fresh. Good post, love your passion.
Hi, kjrzeek1. Good to see you here. Thank you very much for coming and share your opinion about jogging. I must admit that I learn much from you about jogging. You are totally right, my friend. Jogging outside is so much better. I hope we can enjoy this sport and we get all benefits by jogging. Take care!
