Here's what the experts have to say
"There's no one way to think about physical activity," according to Nancy I. Williams, ScD, FACSM, co-director of the Women’s Health and Exercise Laboratory at Penn State University. You can mix and match your steps with other types of exercise to ensure you're getting enough."If steps is an achievable goal, that is, if you can incorporate more walking more easily into your day, then increasing your step count is going to be a good goal for you," she says.
hile the 10,000 steps number is very good for public health as like a single number, sometimes when dealing with an individual you have to customize and tailor it to their individual needs."If someone has less than 5,000 steps a day, they would be considered to have a sedentary lifestyle.
There is also a difference between"moderate intensity" walking, which translates to approximately 100 steps per minute, and"vigorous intensity" walking, which translates to approximately 130 steps per minute."I Looking for a mileage goal? Dr. Weinrauch says it's more important to focus on the amount of time you’re actively moving each day. “In the beginning, you may only be able to briskly walk a mile in 30 minutes and that’s okay,” he says. “For the average person, a 20-minute mile is a good pace to keep.”
the same thing as a full cardio workout, right? Uh, no—not really."It depends on what your goal is," says Dr. Aguiar, when asked if walking 10,000 steps can replace your cardio routine at the gym."If your goal is to increase cardio fitness or aerobic fitness, then getting your 10,000 steps, especially if they're at a lower intensity, would not address your goal of increasing your fitness substantially.
