Some of us would probably be surprised at how many or how few steps we take throughout the day, especially if you have a desk job. A great way to keep track of this is by using a pedometer. They are small and are relatively inexpensive, with prices ranging from $20-$40. If you are just starting out exercising this would be a great little investment. Set a daily goal of how many steps you would like to take and then see how close you come to reaching it. Keep a journal of your steps each day to track your progress and try to improve each day. There are recommendations now for taking 10,000 steps per day, so strap on your pedometer and start walking!
