For me no. Aside from riding / swimming / lifting weights I just try and build exercise into the day like taking the stairs instead of a lift or escalator, walking instead going a few stops on PT etc. I figure it all adds up and means you’re not worried about hitting a certain ‘target’.
For some people though having a target is important.
Congratulations! You’ve found my mini obsession! My minimum goal is 12k steps per day, but that is only if I ride 20+ km. If I do not ride, then 15k is my goal.
I hit 500 days in a row for my step goal a couple of weeks ago. Which is essentially 500 days since I recovered from Covid.
Jeez man that’s fuckin awesome!! Love that you’ve kept the streak going and respect the commitment. On a good week I try to get to 80k steps but averaging around 70k ish at the mo. But then I play tennis almost everyday so it’s all g 💁♂️
10k, sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t. If I’m getting sedentary it’s a good kick up the arse. But if I’ve been active and it whines at me it can go kick rocks.
I wear a Garmin that monitors my steps and updates my daily goal based on what I walked the day before… Works pretty well. Sometimes it’s a stretch, sometimes I hit it by mid afternoon.
Do you guys have step goals for the day / week? Do you stick to it?

my goal is to do about 10 hours of walks a week, I try very hard to stick to it
Used to. Then I got really ill, and my pedometer had one too many trips through the washing machine.
Not really. Just try to stay active on days I don’t go to the gym. Off days I go for walks or a bike ride.
About 10k/day from three dog walks.
Yes. Aim for 12k steps with a min of 5km. 5 days a week.
Generally nail it each week. Try & get steps up on weekend but I’m lazy so it’s hit & miss.
Usually yes but I’ve been sick the past week so it’s dramatically slumped. Normally around 7000 a day. More on weekends.
10k, sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t. If I’m getting sedentary it’s a good kick up the arse. But if I’ve been active and it whines at me it can go kick rocks.
