Venture a guess. How many steps do you think you take daily: 500, 1,000, 5,000, more? Some studies suggest that 10,000 steps daily about right to help with weight management. Stepping that much may take conscious effort! Who’s counting? You!
- Buy an inexpensive pedometer, clip it on your belt or waistband, and watch your steps add up.
- Start with a baseline. For a week or two, count your total steps, then calculate a daily average.
- Log in. Before you hit the pillow, record your day’s steps.
- Put on your sneakers and start moving! Set a stepped-up goal; perhaps start with your highest day so far.
- Step up gradually. Try 500 more steps per day for a week, until you comfortably reach the 10,000-steps-a-day target. Stick with it!
