How do you get 10,000 steps a day?

Like some other have mentioned; park the car further away, take the long way around everywhere, do a lap or 2 around your office building on your break, and just find as many ways possible to fit in the extra steps. Do you have a decent public transit system in your area? One way I got my steps in was to start taking the bus to work on occasion. The stop is only 4 blocks from me so I got the extra steps to and from the bus stop as well as another block and back from the stop nearest my work. I also started walking to the post-office and grocery store (when I only needed a few things like veggies and not a full week+ grocery run) because both are within 8 blocks of me.

I think finding ways to add in the extra steps is the easy part; there's just so many ways you can do it. The real problem is finding the time! Taking public transit can easily add on an hour+ to your work day by because of the waiting and frequent stops along the route. Obviously it takes a lot longer to walk to the store and back than driving. People that only get 30 min lunch breaks instead of the full hour probably don't have time to eat and walk. But you just have to decide which is more important to you? Getting the steps in even if it means adding a couple hours to your day or, being happy with fewer steps but possibly slower weight loss results. I don't really like either of those options, lol but, that's just the way it is.

My job kicks my *kitten*. I typically get 10,000 to 15,000 steps a day in just at work. More when I run in the mornings before work.

Or a UPS Driver. My delivery man averages 30,000 steps a day and 125 stairs climbed. I live in a hilly area. The guy is FIT!

I've got a Fitbit, and working in an office, I normally only tot up about 3000 steps by lunchtime, and after taking thekids to school etc, but I go for a 50 minutes lunch time walk, and then I go for a proper fast walk in the evening after dinner, and I normally tot up on average, about 20,000 steps a day on a good day, 15,000 on a not so good day.

I have a very sedentary job, so I lowered my daily goal to 6000 steps. That's far better than the <2000 steps I used to get on a typical day.... it's all good, right? I hop on a treadmill a few times a week to get a few thousand steps more in. When that becomes my norm, I can always up the ante later.

I don't have a fitbit, but I have a heart monitor with a pedometer built in -- I work an 8 hour clerical/adminstrative job, with 1 - 30 minute lunch. I parked the farthest I can in the parking lot and work on the 4th floor which takes 8 flgiht of stairs to get up to the office. As much as I hated it during the winter months, I still parked far and took the stairs. During my 30 min lunch, I'd go for a very brisk walk for 20 mins (with taking the stairs to exit the building) and quickly eat my lunch, & every chance I got or I remembered, I stand up and walk in place. That's some of the little tricks for the 10,000 steps... The extra push that always gives me 20,000+ steps each day is going to Zumba class every night. Every one of my Zumba classes (45-60 minutes) that I go to, I end up leaving the class with about 7,000-8,000 steps.

I have a fitbit too and was shocked at how little I move during a typical day at work. Since then, I've done little things to get me over the line - go to the toilet across the other side of the building and upstairs (I'm trying to drink more water so that goes well!), walk the long way to visit colleagues, get up from my desk and do a quick lap of the room every 30 minutes or so.

I still go to the gym and try to do 30 minutes on either the treadmill or the elliptical, but increasing the incidental exercise has really got my steps up to the point where I'm hitting 9-10k a day consistently.

I don't have a long lunch break, so going to the gym is the only way I get my 30 minute walk in!!

I'm at 9,064 steps and 21 floors so far.
I find it's best when you have a sedentary job (I do) to get up several times during the day and get walking. I do the same for stairs. Once an hour I get my butt up and do stairs or walk around my building (inside or out). I take a walk during my 30 minute lunch break, then eat.
This is not a gym day for me. On gym days it's no problem because I usually hit a 3-6 mile run.
Try pausing your work day with walks.

ETA:
I intentionally park on the fourth floor when I could park on the first.
I also walk up the 9 flights to get to my floor -IF- I'm not running late.

I usually reached 13,000-14,000 steps when my dog was younger. We took 2 long walks each day, 45 minutes minimum each time and at a good pace. Unfortunately he is 11 years old now and has slowed down a lot. I need to get out the pedometer and see what we are doing these days. I have a computer/desk job too, so it was really walking the dog that accounted for all the steps. I enjoy the fresh air and nature too.

It's pretty easy if you don't have a desk job. I wore my pedometer to my restaurant job and hit 10k steps easily. My pedometer stopped working so I can't validate this, but I know I walk even more at my new retail job. I'm sure I'd gain weight if I had a job that reset my TDEE to sedentary.
