Pedometers: Taking Steps To A Healthy Life

WEA Trust members can now get pedometers at a discount!

A pedometer is a beeper-sized device you wear on your waist that counts the number of steps you take. It's a great way to objectively measure if you're doing enough activity to burn off extra calories. And that's important: research shows that you can overestimate your activity or calorie expenditure level by more than 50 percent!

So the question becomes: what type of pedometer should you get? You can opt for the least expensive basic step counter. Or choose a more advanced model with extra features like measuring distance in miles, steps, or calculating how many calories you've expended. In these models, stride length is measured and programmed in. Some pedometers come with a safety leash to prevent the pedometer from falling off while you're exercising, which may cost extra.

The Trust has partnered with a few companies to offer substantial discounts on pedometers.
