What is your daily step count?

[BurntBroccoli]

I try to do at least 5000 steps and feel
guilty if I haven’t done enough!

What is your daily count? Do you check each day?

Between 13-15k

more if i go for a walk

Oh my. Often as few as 500. Work from home at a desk all day so unless I make the effort to go for a walk then it's usually very low.

This is MNs, loads will reply saying they do 20k pottering around the house

Currently aiming for 12k a day but I’m on a weight loss mission and making it my mission to get more over. Before that it was often only a few thousand

I try to do at least 10k. An elderly man I know (87 with Alzheimer’s) is doing 23k….

Today I’ve only done 4.5k but I did cycle 25km so that’s not too bad.

Mines could be 3000 on a lazy/rest day but it could be 20k if it's a long run day

15k a day minimum. I do 1hr gym and 3 mile walk daily though. Currenly on 19k today which is a normal sorta of day for me

When I worked, could be as low as 1000 if WFH or 5000 if I went to the office. Now I’m a lady of leisure, it averages 17000 but often 20k plus. My takeaway is that work is bad for you :) (alas I am also skint now!)

5000 on a good day. Im not active at all and don’t work. I have to push myself to go for a walk.

It varies massively. The days I go for a run it's probably between 20-25000, the days I don't 10-15000, the days like today where my chronic illness is flaring it is 4500 right now.

I just checked my watch app and my average is 17,291 apparently.

16k seems to be my daily average. Not around the house. I am rarely at home & walk to lots of places including work and hobbies.

I do a desk job from home. I have a target of 7k which includes a dog walk and a school run usually.

Usually around 15,000 - sometimes 20,000 at weekends. Not bad for someone with stage four cancer I think!

Bugger all. But I cycle 150-180km a week so I hope that makes up for it.

14k-18k during the week as I work from home and take the dog for 3 walks a day or sometimes walk to the shop at lunch, up to 25-30k on weekends depending what we're doing.

I don't keep track but according to my phone my average is 13,500 a day. But I have no car in the week as DH has it and two different school runs in opposite directions (until September!! Woo!), as well as a baby who naps infinitely better when in the pram...

Between 15 and 20k but I don’t work.

About 4000 on a WFH day and 8000 on an office day. Id love to get it higher but work full time at a desk job and commute by car. I'm already parking right at the back of the car park!

average around 19k I work full time on my feet all day. I’m 62 and shattered !

20-30k plus.
i do about 20k on a 13 hr shift and am a big walker/ fitness type. Age 45.

Steps are a massive indicator of overall health/mental wellbeing/avoiding being fat etc.

I do around 12k a day, I’m a teacher and on my feet all day. More are the weekend because of long dog walks.

As ever MN is wholly unrepresentative of the wider population where the average step count is between 3000 - 4000 per day.

15 billion, at least.

I average just under 10k a day, but that’s a relatively recent thing over the last couple of years with a conscious effort to walk more in lunch breaks / park further away than I need to etc

Daily average is 11,893
