А. Ковальков: "Ходьба - идеальный спорт для похудения!". Разве?

Alexey Kovalkov claims that walking is the ideal sport for weight loss. Is it true? Link to the video of Alexey Kovalkov's speech, the quote from which I analyze:    • Video   From the very beginning of the video, the words: "Walking is the ideal sport for weight loss." Here are the studies I talked about in the video: 1 Study. https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper... Here are the brief conclusions: Two groups of subjects on a strict diet (800 kcal, 12 weeks). The first group does low-intensity cardio 4 times a week (walking, cycling, stairs), the second - weight training 3 times a week. Result - the first (cardio) group lost MORE WEIGHT (on average 18.1 vs. 14.1 kg), but LESS FAT (1.7 kg difference in favor of the strength group). What is more interesting is that the cardio group lost almost 4 kg of muscle mass, vs. 0.6 for the strength group. In addition, the level of metabolic processes at rest decreased by 13.4%, while in the strength group it even increased slightly. 2nd study: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1... A study comparing the results of diet, diet+cardio (three times a week), diet+cardio+strength training (three times a week of both) groups, compared to the control group (they had nothing). After 12 weeks, the average weight loss in the groups was 9.64 / 8.99 / 9.9 kg, respectively. With 68 / 78 / 97% being fat. Thus, the presence of strength training preserved muscle mass and almost all the loss was fat.
