10000 steps a day will help you burn up excess calories and help strengthen your core muscles. To burn up 1 pound of fat you will need to shed 3500 calories from your diet, in addition to removing 500 calories from your daily food intake walking will provide you with even more calories used up. Walking 10000 steps a day can provide you with a serious boost to your weight loss plans. so 500 calories taken from food and a further 500 calories used up walking daily should enable most people to loose 2 pounds a week and sometimes more.

Good article. A personal trainer I know told me last year that 10,000 steps may be enough to maintain weight, but to lose it, you need to be doing at least 14,000. Personally, I think it obviously depends on the individual’s fitness levels, weight and age. I’ve also read that at least 30 minutes of those steps needs to be done at a brisk pace, although this 30 mins can be broken down into three slots of 10.

Thanks for this updated age-related information on the number(and type)of steps for weight=loss Mark.
I find that even moderate exercise(walking to and form the shops) can clock up thousands of steps on my pedometer daily so 2000 here or there can be easily accommodated.
Remember to maintain a healthy diet and add some regular weights at home for a really healthy body and bones.

I had not heard this before. Wow! All the walking experts I know are still saying 10,000 steps is a good goal. Of course, I’d assume 10,000 is better than nothing!
