Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert activities to steps?
Step counters reward walking only — your 90-min yoga session shows 200 steps. This converter gives equivalent step count based on calorie burn / cardiovascular work, so non-walking days still count.
Is 10K steps the right goal?
Origin: 1965 Japanese pedometer marketing. Research suggests 7-8K steps/day captures most cardiovascular benefit. Above 10K = diminishing returns. Below 5K = sedentary.
Can I count standing or housework?
Yes — at lower rate. Housework = ~50 steps/min equivalent. Standing desk = doesn't replace movement, but reduces sitting harm.
