'Slow Jogging' Trend from South Korea Now Popular in Indonesia
A new exercise trend known as 'slow jogging' is currently attracting a lot of attention, not only in South Korea but also in Indonesia. This running technique is performed at a very relaxed pace, specifically around 3 to 5 kilometers per hour. Due to its low speed, this exercise is often considered lighter than typical fast running.
Many runners in Indonesia are starting to look at this method because it is considered friendlier for beginners or those who are just starting to adopt a healthy lifestyle. Unlike fast running, which often leaves one breathless, slow jogging allows a person to still be able to talk or breathe calmly while doing it. This is what makes this exercise a popular choice for various age groups.
Currently, slow jogging communities are starting to grow in various major cities in Indonesia. Community members usually gather in city parks or sports areas on weekends to run together. The presence of these communities makes it easier for people to share tips and maintain motivation to keep exercising regularly every week.
In terms of health, slow jogging is considered effective for burning calories without putting excessive strain on the joints and muscles. For Indonesians who want to start a fitness routine, this method can be a good first step. With consistency, slow jogging can help improve heart health and overall physical fitness.
