I’m going to show you the many ways running 30 minutes daily would transform your body and lead to major health gains. Running 30 minutes a day can be a challenge, but one thing is for sure, your body (and mind) gets many benefits once you commit to it.
In a nutshell:

1. A serious calorie burner
One of the best things about pounding the pavements is that it gives you a full-body workout.
You get seriously sweaty and even when you’re having a slow space, you’re guaranteed to torch calories either way.
On average, a 30-minute run burns between 200 to 500 calories, and that’s already a considerable step towards achieving a calorie deficit.
And I take it that you all know what caloric deficit means, right?
This then brings us to my next point, and that is how running:

2. Helps you lose weight
Alongside a healthy diet, running and other moderate aerobic exercises go a long way in maintaining and losing weight.
If you consume the recommended calorie intake of 2,5000 for men or 2,000 for women and have a balanced diet, doing a 30-minute run daily is going to result in a decrease in your scale number.
According to studies, one of the factors that contribute to weight gain is sleep deprivation. Thankfully, your daily runs would help you with this, but more about it in a while.

3. Great for your heart
Running is a fool-proof way of minimizing the risk of stroke and heart-related diseases. The same is true even when you run as little as 10 minutes per day and at slow speeds like 6mph.
Running is also effective in lowering blood pressure, specifically in older and overweight adults.Another way running daily for 30 minutes transforms your body is how it:

4. Strengthens your bones
Running and jogging are weight-bearing exercises, which means they aid in strengthening your bones, given that you’re not overtraining yourself.
It can feel just as hard on the legs as a strength training workout at the gym. That said, strength gains are small compared to those achieved by resistance training.

Keep watching to know the rest!
