Running is one of the highest impact cardio exercises you can do. Depending on your running style you can cause an impact up to 2.5 times your body weight. And thst impact is on one leg at a time. Obviously, it's one of the best ways to raise your heart rate, but learning proper technique is usually overlooked.
