Step Challenge 2011
Log your steps for the week through the step Challenge!
Wear your pedometer every day for the duration of the program recording your steps in your health diary and resetting your pedometer every night before you go to sleep.
On the Monday start of the next week of the program add up your steps for the previous week (Monday to Sunday) and log them on the steps website www.10000steps.org.au
Why measure your steps?
Increasing physical activity has significant health benefits and you can fit more of it into your everyday life just by walking to work or taking the stairs instead of the lift. We recommend during the first week of the program you record the steps you take during a normal week and then during the next nine weeks think of new ways to increase the number of steps you take each day (our walking groups are a great way!), towards a goal of 10,000 steps a day (70,000 for the week).
How does your physical activity measure up? Is there room for improvement?
