WW: Walk at a 30% Incline to Burn 70% More Fat?

Is walking at a steep incline really the secret fat-burning hack the internet claims it is?

Some viral social media posts suggest that walking at a 30% incline can help you burn 70% more fat — but what does the science actually say?

On today’s show, I’ll unpack the claims making the rounds online, review the actual research, and break down the pros and cons of both running and walking.

You’ll also learn what incline walking really does for your body and how to choose the best option for your health and goals.

Join me on today’s Cabral Concept 3498, as we uncover the research behind incline walking and fat burning — and what the smartest approach is for long-term fitness and wellness.

Enjoy the show!

Show Highlights & Big Takeaways:

1.Incline Walking
Research shows that A 5% incline burns 17% more calories than flat walking, while a 10% incline can burn up to 32% more.

2.Fat Burn
Incline walking uses 7–8% more calories from fat compared to running, making it great for fat loss.

3.Running vs. Walking
Running burns more total calories, but incline walking is lower impact, easier on joints, and still highly effective for fitness and longevity.
