What's up guys. As you know, I've gone from 10,000 daily steps to 20,000, most of which I get by walking on the treadmill at the gym (18,000). The rest I get from my normal daily activities. When you extrapolate these steps over an entire day, they really do add up a lot. Just as one basic example, when I go to the store I park as far away as I can.
I know this may sound a bit goofy, but when you add up all the steps you have to take to walk to and from the store, plus the steps you will inevitably take while shopping, you will probably get anywhere from 1,000 to 2,000 steps in easily.
Other ways to get in more steps are to walk while chatting on the phone or to take the stairs instead of the elevator. I've also started skipping the drive-thru at the bank or pharmacy and walking inside instead.
You don't have to do these things. Just options to explore!
