Where the Hell did this come from? I have heard this is the "new thing" and everyone has a step counter but it truely seems unreasonable.
You are not going to get in 10,000 by taking the elevator instead of the stars unless you are on the 80th floor.
My sister owns a landscaping company. She got one of those step counters and in an 8 hour day of LANDSCAPING she said she was getting less than 6000.
I run at 160-170 steps per minute for 45 minutes on an eliptical and I am only getting in just over 8000 steps
(I know your average man on the street, office worker and housewife isn't doing that).
Where did this number come from and how is it justified (or is it just the lose-weight flavor of the month)?
