Frequently Asked Questions

Is 10,000 steps actually the right target?
No — that's a 1965 marketing campaign by Yamasa (Japan), not science. Research shows mortality benefit plateaus at ~7,500 steps/day for older adults (Lee et al. 2019 JAMA), ~9,000 for younger. Speed matters too — brisk pace adds extra benefit beyond count. 10K is fine but not magic.
How does my count compare globally?
Stanford 2017 smartphone study (Althoff et al., Nature) found massive differences: Hong Kong 6,880/day, Japan 6,010, USA 4,774, Indonesia 3,513. "Activity inequality" within countries predicts obesity rates. Your country drags or boosts your average.
Steps vs distance vs intensity?
Steps = good simple proxy but misses intensity. 30 min brisk walk = ~3,500 steps but more cardio benefit than 7,000 leisurely steps. Best: 5,000-7,000 baseline + 30 min Zone-2 (brisk) most days. Track both step count + heart rate if optimizing.
