What are the benefits of using a
pedometer?
By monitoring the number of
steps that you take each day, a pedometer helps you take charge of your
health. Walking helps increase your metabolism - which helps you maintain a healthy weight - and also builds bone density, preventing osteoporosis. You can reach a healthy level of
fitness by simply taking 10,000 steps every day. 10,000 steps might seem like a big number,
but once you start using a pedometer you’ll probably see that you are already
taking a lot of steps just through your day-to-day activities. Once you reach the 10,000 steps-per-day
benchmark, you can step-up your goals to become even more fit!
