Turns Out There Is Something Special About 10,000 Steps a Day #shorts

It became conventional wisdom in many fitness circles a few years ago that we should all try to take 10,000 steps a day.

With daily fitness trackers keeping count, many people tried to hit that number – and some occasionally wondered if 10,000 was, in fact, some kind of important number.

But the research says you don’t have to take that many to get health benefits. For example, 9,800 steps lowers the risk of dementia by 50 percent, the research suggests, but taking just 3,800 a day lowers it by 25 percent. #dailysteps #getmoving #fitfamily #healthyfamily #healthylifestyle #hearthealth #exercise #webmd #shorts
