Perhaps the word is used differently in Spanish, but I would say parando is a participio de presente (= present participle), not gerundio. In English, there is a grammatical difference between a present participle and a gerund, although they have the same form. The gerund is a noun form of the verb.
Gerund: Walking is good exercise
Present Part.: I am walking along the street.  |

It's important to know that the gerund is not often used in Spanish.
Instead we most often use the infinitve.
Here are examples:
Walking is a good excercise.
Caminar es un buen ejercicio.
