Sedentary people in the USA generally move only 2,000 to 3,000 steps a day. It is a good start to add 2,000 more steps to each day. Studies have shown that moving 6,000 steps a day significantly reduces the risk of death, and walking 8,000 to 10,000 a day promotes weight loss. You will go about a mile in 2,000 steps.
