How Many Steps Do I Take In A Day?
I would say, on average, I get at least 10,000 steps in a day.
How To Walk 10,00 Steps A Day
I track my daily steps with my Apple Watch. I decided that I needed to get more activity in my life, so I made it a priority to get back to walking 10,000 steps a day.
Your steps will also quickly add up by moving as much as possible from:
- Doing house work
- Mowing your lawn and doing other yard work
- Taking the stairs instead of the elevator or escalator
- Take brisk walks in the morning before work to improve your mood
- Go for another brisk walk during your lunch break to improve your focus
- After you get home from work go for a walk to clear your mind, lower stress, and start relaxation mode
- Another one of the best ways to get outside and walk more is to rescue a dog.
How Long Does It Take To Walk 10,000 Steps?
In approximately 54 minutes, I walked 6,388 steps, which equaled 3.36 miles, and burned 292 calories.
6,388 steps / 54 minutes
= approximately 118 steps per minute
Based on these calculations, for me to get 10,000 steps a day at my brisk walking speed, it would take:
10,000 steps / 118 steps per minute
= 85 minutes of brisk walking to reach 10,000 steps in a day.
How Many Miles Is 10,000 Steps?
6,388 steps / 3.36 miles
= 1901 steps per mile
10,000 steps / 1901 steps per mile
= 5.26 miles to walk 10,000 steps in a day
If 10,000 steps at one time seems like a lot, take more frequent, shorter walks throughout the day.
1,000 steps / 118 steps per minute
= approximately 8.5 minutes
Take two 30 minute walks, one in the morning and one at night, then one to two 10 minute walks after meals.
By getting into the habit of taking shorter walks and staying more active throughout the day, it will easily put you over 10,000 steps for the day.
How Many Calories Is 10,000 Steps?
The answer to the question of how many calories is 10,000 steps will be different for everyone.
However, here are my calculations:
- In 54 minutes, I walked 6,388 steps and burned 292 calories
- 6,388 steps / 292 calories = approximately 22 steps to burn 1 calorie
- 10,000 steps / 22 steps = approximately 455 calories
Is Walking 10,000 Steps Considered A Good Workout For Weight Loss?
If you are currently living a sedentary lifestyle and are obese, walking 10,000 steps a day is an excellent way to start losing weight.
Walking 10,000 steps a day may also:
- Lower bad cholesterol
- Improve brain health by lowering inflammation associated with cognitive decline
- Improve mental health
- Reduce stress
However, for the best sustainable weight loss results, you should also be focusing on strength training to builds lean muscle, to increase your metabolism.
