And why?


Edit: I am doing my research online too. So far I have found out apparently people should do 10,000 steps a day!

    Lol not nearly enough. I'm not a walker, I dance for my exercise.

    anywhere from 8,000 to 16,000 a day, one day I even reached over 19,000 but that was way outside of normal. It just depends. My average would be around 12,000 I think.

    oh, missed the "and why?" My Why would be, it's my primary form of exercise, walking. I enjoy it, that's the only reason I keep doing it.

    My ultimate goal is 14,286 (so that I get 100,000 steps a week), but some days I am happy with the 10,000.

    Some days the only activity/exercise I get is walking, so I try to make the most of it. :smile:

    On a day without taking a walk for exercise on average about 10,000 to 12,000 - on days when I take a walk specifically for exercise between 18,000 - 21,000

    typical day of work around 5k, and then another 10k when the weather is cooperating and i can walk my dogs. I wish my job wasn't so sedentary.

    On a work day (3 days a week): 9,000 - 15,000. Sometimes several hundred more.
    On a day off: 6,000 - 8,000

    I do this only to see how much activity I am getting.
