I finally bought a pedometer to measure how many steps I walk a day. One of the latest fitness fads is to be sure to walk 10,000 steps a day.
Well, I have had it four full days. My stats are 16,228, 16019, 24424, and 17106. The days were fairly active, but no long walks or anything like that. On the 24,424 day I painted a room and was up and down the ladder a lot. The pedometer if anything is underestimating my steps. Frankly, 10,000 steps doesnt seem like a whole lot.
Anyone else use these things? Is it helpful?
