How many steps do you take in a day? According to phone Health app

[SpottieO]

Live in the US. Try to take the stairs whenever I can, I have to park like a quarter mile away from my office so I end up doing that round trip walk sometimes 2 or 3 times a day. I'd like to start running again as I haven't done much to seriously exercise in probably like a year and a half.

What does it look like for you? Happy with your results?

Between 15,000 and 22,000 usually.

 

[Transistor]

9,000 to 10,000 usually
About 15,000 on weekends

I want to do more, just don't have the time right now. Maybe when the weather is cooler I can take the kids on more walks

My job doesn't have me move much. :/

I have the government sponsored Carrot app, which tracks my steps when I carry my phone. It sets goals for me, and if I reach them I get a certain amount of points towards movies, but some people get other types of points.

You can challenge friends and do surveys for more points, but the surveys are few and far between now. It has gotten me 2.5 free movies though.

My goal is only 2500-3000 steps, so not many. Not enough.

I have Android, what's a good app?

For counting steps I mean.

Huh, I had never heard of Carrot. That's an interesting idea.

8000-10000 on weekdays. Weekends are awful though, I usually only get up to 2000-3000.

Yeah. It is. But it's not nearly as good as it was before. They used to have lots of surveys and offer more points for reaching daily goals.

It's Canadian

I'm averaging about 16k this summer from walking around the oceanfront a ton.
