I'm still using the Nintendo DS game Personal Trainer Walking, and my daily goal is 17K in that. Has been since 2010 or so. Can't remember the last time I missed my target, but I live in NYC. I also bike 25-30 miles a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year... so I might not be normal.

Either this is nonsense or every doctor I've ever talked to in my life is a liar.Just do a hard 30 minute workout. Walking is barely effective as exercise.
That's good for weight loss, no good at all for exercise. Different things.I prefer the target of "don't eat so damn much".
That won't solve the problem. Inactivity is its own devil. Overeating is an entirely different thing.I prefer the target of "don't eat so damn much".

According to my phone, I walked 15000 steps on July 30 last year. I covered 7.5 miles and burned 730 kcal.
Not sure how to fit that into my daily routine
thats fucking ridiculous. I have been trying to hit 10,000 steps the past six months and have only gotten to 7k once.

i don't get this. look up the calories. walking burns a lot.

How are you guys counting your steps?
since it's 90 min of walking we are talking about, i think it's more do-able than people suppose. calculate getting to a gym, changing, working out, getting home vs just a walk for an hour and a half.
the secret is a deep bench of podcasts. plus my head clears, i find, if i can take a path through some nature. park, woods etc.

Dear noobs.
I lost about 30 pounds in 4 months with a combination of calorie count ting and daily doing around 15k steps average per day.
My wife started with me and lost around 12 pounds.
A 45 minute walk at a good pace can burn 400 calories.
People can kill thems3lves on a treadmill for 20 minutes for the same burn.
Get up and walk.
Noobs.

Freudian.
I carry an abacus around at all timesHow are you guys counting your steps?

The 2 things are actually interrelated. .
