Take care to practice and build yourself up before you throw yourself full force into the 10
,000 steps program. A test walk can be completed over a course of about two weeks. During this time, estimate or use the pedometer to keep track of how far you walk each day and whether or not the process was comfortable or more difficult. By having a goal in mind, individuals can take their time and gradual increase the number of steps they take each day until they reach the target goal of 10,000 steps!
