You can't make/force someone to change. They can only change if they want to and when they decide they are ready.

I am an overweight guy. I used to go to the gym and use the machines and jog a little. I started strong lifts and it changed me for the better. I am much stronger, I don't feel weak or tired doing day to day tasks. It helped me to maintain my strength while losing fat.

You burn more calories running than you do if you walk for the same amount of time. If you walk 20 minutes. lets say you burn 100 amount of calories. If you run 20 minutes. You would burn 150 amount of calories. These are just rough numbers with absolutely no accuracy at all. I just randomly picked numbers.
