    ...I'm out at 5:30 every morning for an hour's exercise: usually 6500-7000 steps on the condo's jogging track...that and a (mostly) Mediterranean diet keeps me in fairly good health (so far)...a little less JWB and I'd probably be an Olympian...

    Most smartphones have one built in. You just have to open it and agree to terms to get it counting .

    The Samsung app is called Health

    According to Garmin I average 8968 steps per day, but that includes the days when I cycle, and when I walk 7+km in the morning. On walking days it is usually around 13000 steps, cycling days around 7-8000. My garmin watch sets a dynamic target...if I make a days target the number goes up for the next day, and reduces if I don't. Just looked and I've only done 2557 out of todays target of 8890 so tomorrows will go down (but I did do a 55km bike ride this morning!)

    ^That is some good stepping, Stumpy. Many people are kicking butt on this thread!


    I average 6-7000 steps , but that is just at work. I also go to the gym four times a week in the evenings and do an hour of either hot yoga, swimming laps, or a weight class.
    I don't look at my steps during the class, but I burn about 300-400 calories in each of those workouts. My steps are higher on the weekend as I normally go for a 5-10 km hike on the weekends. I use a garmin vivoactive, which I use everyday to check my basal metabolic rate, heart rate, etc.

    Cool! I have a garmin as well, and I like that the steps calibrate depending how many you've done before. If I do a high step day, my goal is higher the next day. 55 km bike ride, that is awesome! I am on a low calorie-ish diet, and was told not to overdo it, but I think I am going to start jogging/running soon as I just feel like it. lol

    You build up to it, backspin! And if you are doing other exercise other than walking, that is also burning calories.

    I average 6-7000.
    We got some high achievers in the stepping dept certainly. Normies don't be discouraged by the high numbers

    I used to do 30 thousand steps when I was on the night shift.
    Some of my colleagues got up to 36,000 some nights.

    Fvcking brutal it was.

    Not had a bike ride since last year, weathers been crap.
    Hopefully that will change next week.
