How many steps do you usually get everyday?

[caitycat21]

The average American only gets around 3k - 4k steps a day, I’ve recently made it my personal goal to try to walk more so i purchased a walking pad and I’ve been abusing the hell out of it. Throughout the day I’ve increased my steps just through getting myself to walk for at least 15 minutes after any meal/snack as it helps a lot with digestion ! I also tend to walk whenever I have a free period in between my classes, it also helps if you’re the type of person that deals with food noise in between meals as it gives you something to stay occupied with.

I used to average around 2-3k steps but now average 21k as making these small habits have helped a lot !

Sedentary - less than 5k steps daily

Lightly active - 5-7k steps daily

Moderately active - 7-9k steps daily

Active - 10k steps daily

Highly active - 12.5k + steps daily

I run at least five miles each morning six days per week and workout six days, but I do not measure my steps.

I do not count them, but probably like 100-200

@TallAnon With all due respect but I deem this quite unlikely. Steps go quicker than one would reckon and you will probably have hit the 200-mark before leaving the house to go to work.

I currently do not work or leave the house, so however many steps it is to the front door to collect my meal for the day, a trip or 3 to the toilet and moving to and from my desk to and from bed.
