high intensity vs low intensity workout

[Nelly]

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between a high intensity workout and a low intensity workout? Is high intensity better for weight loss? If so, can anyone do it? I’m obviously not a fitness expert but I’m trying to inform myself so I can make some good choices.

Hi intensity means pushing yoruself to the limit like running hard. Low intensity means challenging but not as hard as you can. Like a brisk walk is low intensity.

Exactly. It's the difference in how much it gets your heart rate going

harder vs easier

do you have to do high intensity to lose weight?

I think I'm now getting high/low intensity and high/low impact mixed up. Are they the same?
