Do you REALLY need 10K steps/day?
It's been a couple of weeks since my last post and I apologize as I truly aim to get a post out to every week. But my studio make-over (new floor, paint, setting more equipment) took more of my time but I must say it looks so good and if you want to see it, join me for a free week in studio or live online.
Moving on!
When was the last time you took a walk? If you can't remember, you may want to pay close attention to this.
You might have heard that 10,000 steps is a MUST for optimal health…
But new research shows that only 8,200 steps is enough to protect you from some of the most common chronic diseases.
In a recent 4-year review of over 6,000 Fitbit users in the “All of Us” medical project, researchers found that just 8,200 steps can protect you against:
Obesity
Sleep Apnea
Heartburn & Reflux
Major Depression Disorder
Not only that, but researchers said the risk for most health problems continued to go down as the number of daily steps went up past the 8,200 mark.
What’s more, they also found that overweight people can cut their risk of obesity by 64% if they boost their daily step count from 6,000 to 11,000.
That’s a pretty good incentive to get out and walk, right? AND its free to do!
Today, I am challenging you to TAKE A WALK. And as I have said before, there is no better time than the present!
