Track your Activity
Steps
A 2011 study found that 10,000 steps a day is a reasonable target for healthy adults as the average was between 4,000 and 18,000 steps a day.
By visualizing your walking trends, you can see your progress firsthand, helping you stay on track.
Benefits of hitting your daily step goal:
- Maintain a healthy weight
- Improve your mood
- Strengthen your bones and muscles
- Strengthen heart
- Improve your balance and coordination
Active Minutes
If you wear a fitness wearable, active minutes are usually measured when you have spent at least ten minutes in an activity that burns three times as many calories as you do when you are at rest.
Health organizations recommend that adults do:
- At least 150–300 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity; or
- At least 75–150 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity; or
- An equivalent combination of moderate and vigorous-intensity activity throughout the week.
To help reduce the detrimental effects of high levels of sedentary behavior on health, all adults should also aim to do more than the recommended physical activity levels.
Floors Climbed
A long-term study of 10,000 men showcased that those who climbed 20 to 34 floors of stairs per week, which adds up to 3 to 5 floors per day, had reduced their risk of a stroke by 29 percent.
Start tracking how many floors you climb today to see how your number could be impacting your overall health.
Benefits of stair climbing:
- Helps you lose weight
- Improves heart health
- Increases muscle strength
- Builds endurance
