Active adults typically take between 4,000 and 18,000 steps a day, and studies indicate that 10,000 steps a day is a reasonable goal for this population. While any physical activity is better than none at all, the intensity or cadence - the number of steps you take per minute of walking - is more important.
If you want to walk your way to losing weight or want to give your heart a workout, then target a pace of 4 km (2.5 miles) per hour for at least 22 minutes a day over and above your habitual walking/activity levels.
