The 10,000 step myth

Not coming close to the 10,000 step count you need to be healthy every day?

Neither are we…and that’s OK!

A new study in Newser found that the number you need is half that…maybe less.

The health benefits of steps started around 4400 for women…and leveled off at about 7500.

Getting your 10K can’t hurt, of course…but don’t consider it a “must”.
