Daily Fit Tip: Know your steps

Categories: Daily Fit Tip

When it comes to fitness, your steps can really add up. So how many are you getting?
Wait, let's start by talking about how many you should be taking: 10,000 a day. Sound high? It is. 10,000 steps a day is the equivalent of 5 miles. You don't need to fit these all in at one go -- a sedentary person takes an average of 1,000 to 3,000 steps a day, so adding in an hour of walking should probably do the trick. And of course, steps taken during a run or a go on the elliptical trainer count.
