Walking my way to Good Health
The Company that supplies me with my pay check has also supplied me (and any other employee who wants one) with a pedometer.
They have asked that we keep track of our steps for 6 weeks, which I have done.
It was interesting to me. I have always considered myself as moderately active because I sit behind a computer all day at work, but after 6 weeks, I find that I am, and always have been, in the very active category.
It’s nice to know I’m doing something right
Here's the "steps" chart:
2500 steps - very inactive
3700 steps - inactive
5000 steps - moderately active
7500 steps - active
10000 steps - very active
And I have walked over 1000 steps per day for 6 weeks (except 1 day, when I was at an all-day meeting. I only made it to 9000) My biggest day was over 13000 steps. YES!
