How Steps Convert to Calories

The calories burned from walking depend on the number of steps, your body weight, and stride length. On average, 10,000 steps covers about 4-5 miles and burns 300-500 calories depending on body weight and walking speed.

Setting a Daily Step Goal

The commonly cited 10,000 steps per day goal originated from a Japanese marketing campaign, but research supports that even 7,000-8,000 steps daily provides significant health benefits. Any increase in daily steps above your baseline is beneficial.
