Habitual Behaviour, will+inf.

Hello!

will+infinitive is used when referring to habitual behaviour so we can say:

1. He'll usually go for a walk on Saturday.

2. He usually goes for a walk on Saturday.

Is it possible that the difference between these two is that in sentence 1 it means more something that I assume he does on Saturday and 2 refers more to his actual routine? Or not?

Thanks a lot for your help

The second is much more common. The first emphasizes the future occurrences of a habitual activity. I hardly ever use it.
