🚶‍♂️ Step into a Healthier You! 🚶‍♀️
It turns out, the magic number isn’t 10,000—it’s less! A groundbreaking study reveals that taking as few as 4,000 steps a day can slash your risk of death and heart disease.
Scientists from the UK analysed data from over 70,000 people to find the sweet spot for your daily step count. Whether you’re often on the move or spend a lot of time sitting, starting at just 2,200 steps can begin to improve your health. But here’s the real kicker: reaching between 4,000 and 4,500 steps can significantly lower mortality risks, especially for those with sedentary lifestyles.
And if you’re really looking to maximise the benefits, aim for 9,000 to 10,500 steps a day—this range proved to be the golden ticket for lowering health risks regardless of how much you sit around.
In short, you don’t need to aim for 10,000 steps to have a healthy impact. Just lace up those trainers and add a bit more movement to your day. These findings highlight the power of a few extra steps, particularly if you’re usually glued to a desk.
