Women a little bit less on average than men. Those numbers have always seemed crazy to me. On a bad day where I don't do shyt I'm still taking 7000+ and that's a day where I barely did anything lol.


They make watches for that sort of thing now if you BELIEVE you walk that much. :ufdup: do you count your own steps? If you drive around or sit half the time, you probably walk less than you think.

And honestly, i would argue that its less for the average american.

I know exactly how many steps I'm getting in each day.

I work from home and I rarely hit my daily FIT goal until I made the conscious effort to do so. (7500 steps I think)
Walking around the house and going to the store is not enough in my experience
Even when I didn’t WFH, I had to make efforts to take laps through the building, walk the stairwell or parking lot to hit 10k or go walk the lake (3.5 miles). i worked out in the morning back then, but it was strength so while I got exercise, it wasn’t “steps”

facts. nobody is hitting 10k in a desk/stationary job without making a serious effort to get steps in throughout the day. 4-5k seems high unless they are only talking about the youth
