| Stay Healthy - Walk 10,000 Steps A Day |
 |
| 曾經在某處讀過話步行係一種良好運動.. 我哋人人每日都一定會行路啦, 不過要行幾多先稱得上係「有運動過」呢?? 佢話係每日行一萬步..呢個數字睇落有啲大, 而且邊鬼個會咁得閒去計腳步?? 我從來懶理, 直至發現部手機入面有個叫做「Health」嘅apps, 紀錄每日行過幾步路.. 我唔清楚呢個「步行計」點樣操作, 不過既然「生果牌」洗咗幾百萬同幾年時間研發, 到依家公開俾用戶使用, 我應該信賴佢嘅準確性嘅, 哈哈!! 於是, 我最近對於自己行過幾步路都頗為著緊, 會時時刻刻開個apps睇下, 盡量做到每日一萬步.. 我當然知道, 如果我可以好似她或者他或者她咁樣跑法, 我都唔駛擔心啦.. 個問題係在於自己身體太笨重(想像下遮里喺度跑緊, dun下dun下咁係何其辛苦!!), 而且腳踝會發痛喎!! 所以我只好選擇走路, 可喜的是, 其實要行佢幾千步都並非難事, 只係我哋未為意啫.. 而我好開心可以保持平均每日過萬步, 要俾個like自己!! 所以各位朋友呀, 大家開始要每日行多幾步路喇.. 架車泊離門口遠啲, 行路出去打包而唔揸車, 應該唔死得下化?? :p |
| i once read somewhere that walking is a good form of exercise.. we all walk everyday no doubt, but how much of walking do you think could classify us as "having exercised"?? it says walk 10,000 steps a day.. this sounds like a big number and who the hell of us counts how many steps we walked in a day?? i never bothered, until i found this apps called "Health" shipped with my phone that logs the number of steps i walked.. i do not know how this "pedometer" works but if that "fruit brand" invested millions and years in the R&D of this thing and finally released it to the users, i better believe its credibility, haha!! so i have been rather excited about the number of steps i walked lately, i check that apps every now and then and try my best to hit the 10,000 mark everyday.. i know,if i run like the archetypical her on the trails or him and her on the treadmill, i won't have to worry a thing.. but the thing is, i am TOO HEAVY to run (imagine a jello running all wobbly, susah lah kan??), and my ankles hurt if i do!! so i resort to walking, thank god, believe it or not?? it's actually not difficult to log thousands of steps a day, we just do not realise that.. and i am happy that i can maintain a daily average of 10,000 steps, bravo to myself!! so everyone, let's all start to walk a little more everyday, park your car a tad further from the entrance or walk out to tapao instead of driving won't die lah.. :p |

iPhone got this app ya? What's it call ya??
ReplyDeleteOhh, just check it, it's name "heart"!! Not bad wor, I've the then jawbone last time, but it's broken already, sob sob.... I found it very useful because it also has the sharing thing and at the same time I also see my friend how many steps she has taken per day also, hehe!
No, it;s called Health. I think it only come with iPhone 6, not IOS 8.
DeleteHahaha, it's health, you're correct! Maybe I was miss typed or somehow.
DeleteReally? I thought it was came with IOS 8...but I wonder how they calculate the steps ya? Is when you walking while you're holding the phone ya? I saw from somewhere about the band how they calculate the steps were using the waving of hand and the heart bi something. Then so how about the phone ya? Use moving distance?
I’ve seen some kinda device, you attach on your arm, then you run or walk or exercise, it will measure your heart rate, your walking steps, etc.. Is it similar with your post today? I don’t like walking, so I never tried these devices before.. I know lastime Sony hp got this apps la, you attach to your heart or chest, then it will measure everything one, it can detect the steps you walk for the day, etc.. But not accurate one la..
ReplyDeleteTalking about walking, I know walking is good.. But to some people who don’t like to exercise (I’m talking about me), really suffer leh.. Walk a few staircase also already “chuen hei” liao.. From the carpark, walk up to the stairs to the lift, also “chuen hei” liao.. Hou cham..
DeleteSome colleagues like to park the car in the carpark, then walk up the office using stairs.. 8th floor man !! But they like it that way.. Good exercise, I agree also la.. And then, there’s the fire drill.. Walking down the stairs from 8th floor to lobby, ok la.. Very fast.. Somemore can “pok pek pok pek”, very fast reach lobby liao.. But walking up from lobby to 8th floor, wah, can pengsan.. Usually we will wait for the lift la..
DeleteEh, don’t say you are too heavy to run la.. Everything needs to start somewhere.. I started dieting previously, and the first few days, it was difficult. Very difficult.. But after 3 days, ok wor, don’t feel so sanfu already.. You may feel sanfu and whole body pain when you start to exercise, but after one week, your body already get used to it, then ok liao lor.. You go to fitness centre in shopping malls one rite.. Start “running” by “walking a bit fast”, I think can kua..
DeleteSikit-sikit jadi bukit, you can do it :)
DeleteWah, 8 floors ya, that's a lot! Actually I did thinking of doing the same thing, but I'm very scared (you know ya, for girl is difference stories, right ?)
DeleteThe beginning is always difficult after get use to it, then everything will be easy, like SK always said practice makes perfect!
I reckon I am hitting more than 10k steps daily too. After all, my boss sits in a different building in the office and I have to walk back and forth a few times a day! No wonder people say I am getting slimmer these days! (Slimmer from very fat is still fat though)...
ReplyDeleteMuahahahahaha!! You cracked me up. Give yourself a pat that Rome Was Not Built In A Day. You are doing good exercise by walking & seeing your boss so often while my boss is sitting 20 feet away in his cocoon. He just yell at me like a samseng instead of using the intercom.
DeleteLOL! He yell at you means he pays attention to you. That is never a bad thing!
DeleteYour boss don't have messenger or email or phone meh ? need to walk like that .... But good la... can exercise!
DeleteDon't worry RealGunners, after few months, you'll become very slim...
DeleteInteresting appilication that came with your new phone. Can we download the apps anywhere? I would love to know how many steps I had walked each day. Bravo to you for hitting the target of 10,000 steps.
ReplyDeleteI am also curious to know whether we can download for non-iPhone users! It comes with iPhones!
DeleteIf we can download that app, then we have to buy a pedometer!
DeleteWenn - No , don't think you can download the app. And furthermore, your phone need to have the hardware to track your steps.
DeleteYou can buy a pedometer or maybe phones that support the function.
I think there're some similar apps in the market wear you can download for the android phone, doesn't necessary to be iPhone, I remember when I was using android phone last time, they do have something like that.
DeleteLast time when I use S5, I use it to count ny daily step with it.
ReplyDeleteNow I use my Polar watch. Hihiji
Your Polar Watch is memang bagus compared to whatever gadgets sold in the market now. I remember you shared about this wonderful Polar's functions in your blog which is the best friend for all runners and health freaks.
DeleteLina has the nice canggih gadgets to count her steps :)
DeleteLina needed these gadgets to track her runs.
DeleteActually don't have also OK. Endomondo on handphone or Runkeeper works too Chris. I just want to have style. Wakakaka
DeleteLina - yeah, I saw some watches or gadgets can be quite stylo but expensive.
DeleteBravo to SK.
ReplyDeleteThis id on top of your gym visits?
Powerlah Ah Boy.
We should call him Power Boy now!! SK is ding everything he could to keep himself well toned and trimmed. Who know the next posts would show him doing upside down yoga poses and drinking detox tea to flush his colons. Oh well, let's see what he shares.
DeleteSome more he said he is too heavy and is like jello. I don't think so lah. he looks very fit to me. He is just being modest.
DeleteHe's heavy from all the muscles lah. Ask him to flex his bicep and show to us here. ;)
DeleteYeah, SK all muscles la... but can workout his lower body and slowly do some running.
DeleteRunning is cardiovascular activity which also can be done with cycling, for instance.
DeleteLower body workouts can do all those strength exercises what.
I'm sure Ah Boy does a lot of squats and lunges. LOL
Hahaha
Usually i didn't count the number of steps as i didn't download those apps...
ReplyDeleteBut now i become a typical aunty liao, there's a time i passed by a roadshow, since it's free, sign up for it, and from there, i got to know about free workout in malls, parks, etc, went for it if times permits... kekeke...
Yeah you are the zumba auntie :)
DeleteZumba tough .....not easy. Anytime can reach 10K steps... hahah
DeleteAgree. Zumba sure burns a lot of calories too...
DeleteGood Morning Bloggers!
ReplyDeleteI have heard of this "Walk 10,000 Steps Daily" many years ago when my company helped a health care company to launch their pedometer gadgets for this purpose. I do not know how this device captures the number of steps walked but they are very sensitive and accurate. I bought one for my wife who even ran with it on the gym's treadmills. The pedometer could give the accurate steps made. Wonderful technology.
Doctors anywhere would always highly recommend walking or brisk walking as the best form of exercise that would not injure injuries to our limbs. They say it would help our hearts to pump the blood in a safe pace besides regulate the circulation. Honestly, I do not even walk 10K steps a day with the nature of my job and lifestyle, not by choice really. My weight and size speaks for itself after getting ballooned up.
DeleteAny exercise is good la... and hard that exercise can prevent certain diseases.
DeleteI agree that walking is a very good form of exercise. It is not too strenuous and we can do it anytime, anywhere.
ReplyDeleteFor me, I would consider it an exercise if I do power walk ie walking at a fast pace. I used to do this at a field near the old place I stayed. Every morning, I get out of the house at 6:00am and walk round the field. I used to get a thrill out of walking really fast and overtaking joggers.
DeleteMy walking sessions used to be 20 rounds around the field and after that I felt so good. I lost a lot of weight too at that time. Sadly, even though there is a park near my present home, I can't do that as I have to go to work early.
DeleteI find that walking is more gentle on our joints and legs compared to jogging or running. It is suitable for me because I have back problems and also twisted my ankle 3 times already.
DeleteBrisk walking exercise also tones the legs and entire body. Yeah, I used to be so slim. Sobs!
DeleteAs a matter of fact, I can even do brisk walking in my house. I walk round and round in the living room like a mad woman. But it works too. After all, if prisoners of war can manage to exercise in their tiny prison cells, why can't we do it in our living room?
DeleteBut cannot walk too slow also, have to walk faster to reap the benefits. That's why they recommended brisk walking.
DeleteGenerally from my observation, most Malaysians are lazy to walk. When they drive to the shop, they must find the nearest parking space. If possible, they want to park right in front of the shop or the mall entrance.
ReplyDeleteAt my office area, there is even a shuttle van to ferry people around vicinity. I have no problem walking one big round to the bank or shops. It's a lot faster too than waiting for the van.
DeleteYes, malaysians drive too much and that's not healthy too. Try to park the car farther and walk some distance. After all, it's traffic jam here and there. Maybe it's a good idea to park the car at lesser jam area and walk.
DeleteWe may not realise it, but we walk many steps in a day. I must look fo rth eapp and download it. I am also curious how many steps I take in a day. But that would mean having the phone on me all the time so that it can count my steps.
ReplyDeleteIt's good lah that you have the app and can log an average of 10,000 steps a day. But you also go to the gym and this is considered added bonus to your fitness regime.
DeleteYOu will be surprise when you check the steps you have walked. It;s more than you think.
DeleteWalking out to your neighbourhood shop is also an option instead of driving car. With a car, you have to stress up about finding a parking space. But of course if you are buying many things and if they are heavy, then no choice but to drive out.
ReplyDeleteWalking is good, but many of us rely on vehicles these days, this is a fact we must accept.
DeleteThat also explain why most folks are obese or have tummy after they left school.
DeleteHoho, it's a like a trend already la! Anyway must do exercise especially sit-ups or those which can helps eliminate fat tummy!
DeleteI actually enjoy walking very much. Walking in a park is very pleasant as you can look at the trees, flowers and scenery and enjoy the sights. Best to do it in the morning when it is cooler. But the weather is so hot these days and walking while sweating buckets may not be so pleasant.
ReplyDeleteWalking in the shopping mall can also considered exercise right? Sometimes I spend a few hours doing window shopping and that is quite a good workout for me.
DeleteWhen I need to skip gym (very rare), usually happen when my husband is away , the girls need me to be home. I will join those aunties at my neighbourhood for a stroll at my housing area. It is the time we catch up for lots of interesting stories happen at my area. My legs get to exercise, at the same time I can exercise my ears and my mouth too. Hehehe! Very fun la! Of course it didn't sweat as much as I run in the gym.
DeleteDuring my first pregnancy, I used to walk like 3-4 times per week at Lake Garden Taiping. I enjoy the walk and the fresh air and the nice scenery around, best of all, it's good for me and the baby inside, helps in labor too.
DeleteNow with the second pregnancy, though I wish to continue walking like the previous pregnancy, I just cannot, cause have to look after the naughty son, I know it's good for him to walk around too, but he is so clingy to me he'll sure ask me to carry him one... So I rather don't go at all, unless got someone else teman me la! If just me and Aden, then better don't go, hehehe!
Yes, walking in the park is relaxing especially during the breezy evening or morning. However, that's not really exercise but de-stress. You needed to walk faster.
DeleteI wish that our government would provide more infrastructure for pedestrians. Like overhead bridges and covered sidewalks. I actually live quite near my office but I cannot walk there because it is very dangerous. There are so many cars zooming here and there and no amenities for people to walk safely. But then again, given most Malaysian's attitude towards walking, it might all be wasted.
ReplyDeleteBack when I was younger, I used to take a bus down to Kotaraya. From there I will walk to Rex cinema opposite to get a 3pm movie ticket. Then I walk all the way to Jalan Bukit Bintang and buy a 12:30pm movie ticket. After that I proceed to BB Plaza and Sg Wang Plaza to lepak and have my lunch. After the movie at Cathay, I will walk very fast to catch the 3pm show at Rex. After the second movie, I take the bus back to my area and walk back to the house. That was a lot of walking!
Deletehahah.... I guess I walked almost 5KM every Sunday to my tuition centre and 2 KM daily to school.
DeleteI mean during my teen years....
DeleteA I signed the King of Bukit larut 10KM run this 26 April, I forced myself to run on treadmill for 10km everyday until my ankle started to pain a little. Now, I run 10km too, but alternate day. Meaning, I run 10 km one day and do weight training another day. Just to let my foot rest a bit.
ReplyDeleteGood start SK for the 10k steps per day. Actually I like running more than walking, because running can make sweat more. I guess I will do power walk when my ankle gives up on running. When age is catching, I just need to admit that walking is more suitable for me.
At the mean time, I still run 10km when I step on the treadmill.
Thanks for the link to me for able to run on treadmill. This is something that I feel proud, happy and good. Each time, after running for an hour, I step down from the treadmill, I feel so satisfied that I have accomplished my mission already. Though I walk down with my sore legs and exhausted body, I feel contented as I achieve my target of 10km run. I totally drenched from top to toes. My socks and shoes are wet with my own sweat. I need to mop the treadmill each time after my run, otherwise people may think I pee on treadmill. Hehehe!
DeleteWalking 10k steps can easily achieve by parking car further in the car park, choosing stair case instead of taking lift. Walking to the user department instead of using phone.
DeleteWalking is a good form of Cardio exercise. Walking won't create so much problem to our legs and feet. Walking isn't as tough as running too.When I am too lazy to run, I will walk on treadmill with faster speed and higher incline.
DeleteWhenever I start my run, i feel myself is so heavy, I feel so difficult to complete my next run and 10km run. After warming up like 10 to 15 minutes, the run becomes much easier. It is the determination and persistence make me run and run.
DeleteI agree, every exercises need a bit of warm up, then you will find that the exercise is easier to engage in... Just like Yoga, always start with deep breathing and a bit of twisting, then eventually we can move into deeper and harder poses, without hurting our muscles.
DeleteGood luck Yannie. I am sure you will lose more weight training for the Bukit Larut run.
Deleteyes, warm up is important ..... when i stretch , I realised my muscles not so sored.
Yaya, and can exercise longer too if we got do warm up~
DeleteYea, walking is indeed a good exercise everyone can do, no need to learn/practice, no need any props, and it's free!
ReplyDeleteI remember back in University time, I used to walk a lot, cause I don't have transport back then, and in my gang (I mean the few close one I joined) none of them have own transports too, so we got to rely on our '11 bus' when we wanna go anywhere... Anyway, lucky that hostel is near to the faculty, like just 5-8 minutes walk away, so we walk to and fro everyday, even walk from our hostel to the examination building which is like a 15-20 minutes walk, and our hostel is on a hill some more, so it was like a walk plus hike la, everyday also sweating one, haha!
So may be that's why I started to love walking, and I don't mind to walk a little bit more these days, like I will purposely park my car farther away and walk to the destination. Unless it's raining la!
I see some people very 'pa pai' one, must park nearest to the entrance, walk a bit more also cannot one, hehe.
For me, I rather park farther away, than go round and round searching for a nearer car park.
Recently, a mall at Taiping started to encourage us to use the staircase instead of escalator. They started to draw how much calories we can burn by climbing the staircase, all very colorful cartoons and all.
DeleteHmm, 10,000 steps a day, who will go and count right? But as long as we try to walk as much as we can everyday, consider very good to ourselves already la!
You are too heavy to run?? Haha where got such thing la? Every one can run la! Just depends you want or not only... But actually I read somewhere before that beat walking is better than running/jogging.. Better for our hearts too.
Hayley - No need to count and its impossible to count Get a wrist band pedometer. But then, you have to delay your exercise till you delivered and settled down.
DeleteHaha of course I won't count la, no one will count la! Pedometer, hmm, no need la, I mean I am not so particular in this, got walk consider ok already, won't mind how many steps actually =)
DeleteTrue, cannot do very intense exercise now, just walking or some prenatal Yoga lo, helps in labor ma! ^^
Yeah, you are right. I read in an article that mentioned we must walk at least 10K day in order to be healthy. You know what.... one of my big bosses send this article to everyone and the following days, everybody started to buy a pedometer in the form of jawbone, fitbit and etc.... hahaha..
ReplyDeleteEven himself also wearing one but I doubt he is walking 10K per day, judging by his size and buy schedule. hahha...
I love this IOS 8 or rather iPhone 6 Heath app. It's a fine app and a good idea to have it on the phone as most of us carried our mobile phone everywhere. We also use the running apps in our mobile to track our runs and with this Health app thingy, it can track how many steps we have taken.
ReplyDeleteIt will be great if Apple can enhance the app further by tracking our walking time, sleeping time, sitting time and so on like those wrist band. And, that's here the Apple Watch comes into picture.
I believe some Android phones like Galaxy S5 also have this feature if I am not wrong.
Nowadays so many creative apps in smart phones. Really salute those genius, how they get the idea and how they develop the apps.. Though we don't know how true and accurate the data is, at least it's something which can 'wow' people at first sight.
DeleteAnyway, I am not so into apps, just download whatever necessary, I mean those I got use often.. Games or health apps like this, I don't bother to download... :p
I also use runkeeper and MyFitnessPal and it easily integrates to this app. Like Lina, I owned a Polar Loop device, which is wrist band that tracks my steps, calories burnt, sleeping , walking, standing and running time. It also integrates to this app.
ReplyDeleteMy fitness app helps to track how much calories I have took in while the Polar Loop app minus off the calories intake, which acts like Health. Initally I used Health but I find it more accurate to use Polar Loop to track as I wore it almost 24 hours.
Yeah, when I run, I can easily hit 10K+ or sometimes, 20K+. Of course, we cannot run daily as it will hurts our knees while our calf and thigh muscles will also be aching. I usually took two day off from running to recuperate though its better to run on alternate days but due to my lifestyle, I can't help it ...hahha... Weekends are mostly for the family.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Chris. I used to run daily for 9km an hour. I set that as my daily goal. Sometimes I ran for 1.5 hours to achieve longer distance like 12km. I was trying so hard until I hurt my ankle. I limped for more than a month. Now, I try to "sayang" my leg a bit. I do it slow like about 8km for an hour then, slow jog 2km another 10 minutes to complete my whole 10km run. I run alternate day now. I slot in strength training and swimming in between to let my feet rest.
DeleteSo far, my ankle tendonitis is under control. Thank Goodness.
Yannie - There were days when my calf muscles was so painful that I cannot run ..ahahah.. Yeah, need rest but I can;t help it. Due to my lifestyle, I needed to run daily as I will be busy during weekends.
DeleteAs for me, weekend, I went to gym twice. Morning run for an hour on treadmill, evening, I go again to lift weight for another hour.
DeleteWhenever my ankle gives me sign of pain, I will stop and change to walk. Walking 10 km is taking longer time than running 10 km. If I have enough time to spare, I don't mind walking 10,000 steps like SK.
Yannie - wow..you are really active. I don't have the luxury of time during weekend except an evening jog on Sundays. Usually, I go gym or run from Mon-Thurs. But then as I mentioned before, it hurts my cals muscles and sometimes I ended up cannot run especially on Wed and Thurs.
DeleteI actually got motivated to run after I purchase the Polar Loop. Thus, I guess you are motivated now by this app. Before that, I only ran 2km+ after my gym workout. The reason I am motivated is because I wanted to achieve the goal the app set for me daily. hahaha.. It feels good to reach 100% or more of my daily goal.
ReplyDeleteElse, I will still be running 2km daily and forgot about longer distance runs.
BTW, I think our Malaysian lifestyle is not as healthy compared to other countries. In Singapore, due to the fact that a car here can buy a property in Malaysia, most folk took public transports. This also means a lot of walking from MRT to shuttle bus or from bus stops to office or home.
ReplyDeleteI also heard that in other countries, they are not so pamper and walk a lot. I believe you know some folks in Japan cycle to work too.
Well, I guess we have to hit the gym more in Malaysia. When I am home in JB, my steps barely reached 5K...hahahaha...
I don't think you are too heavy to run la... there is no such thing. Maybe your joints are weak or you needed to strengthen your leg muscles. Do some workouts on the legs. Wear a knee band if needed when you run.
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who is very obese but he managed to run 5Km-7KM on alternate days for the past few months.
With the advent of these pedometers as well as selling at affordable price, there seems lots of folks are wearing, at least over here in SG. The Xioami band only sold at S$19.90. hahha...
ReplyDeleteAnd, with these devices, more and more people are getting active. I saw a lot of folks running at night in SG here.
I think hitting 10K is not difficult, like you said. Yeah, instead of pampering yourself by parking your car near to your destination, park it further away where you may find a cheaper parking spot too.
ReplyDeleteMy office is two bus stops away from the MRT and usually walked to the station unless I am in a rush. It's almost a 1KM walk and that increases my steps.
If you involved in sporting activities, it's even easier to achieve the 10K goal, but then in some sports you cannot carried your phone around like racquet sports. You may want to invest in a wrist band.
Somehow, this app is still very basic now since it is the first version. I really hope they provide more stats in later versions. Currently, it is more of a dashboard to show the no. of steps as well as a hub to integrate third party apps. I am sure the fruit company will do more to enhance it, as well as introduce related devices like heart monitoring or maybe they put all in the Watch... hahaha...
ReplyDeleteThe Watch will cost me a fortune, I guess I stick with my wrist band for now.
My uncle always walks from his house to the shopping centre under the sun, he says it is good for health
ReplyDeleteLibby - But if too hot then can sunburn. Aiya...Singapore got shades everywhre but then, ya la..we walk a lot there from Mrt to bus stops.
DeleteReceived a video from a friend that holding on to your buttocks with two hands while walking up stairs will give you more umph. Yet to try that one day.
ReplyDeleteBravo! Good for you! To be able to achieve 10,000 steps a day, I am also an advocate of walking since I don't like to exercise any other way. I walk the stairs at LRT station instead of taking the escalator. I own a few pedometers but once the batteries ran out, I got too lazy to change the batteries so they are lying around unused. I guess the fruit company coming up with this app to count walking steps is very good since many people carry a fruit phone everywhere so they can count their steps without needing to buy a pedometer like I did. Good job!
ReplyDeleteWell done , mun. You make efforts to walk as much as you can !
DeleteWah! Use apps to record how many steps you walk a day?
ReplyDeletefoongpc - Very common nowadays, lots of people wore it. You can get one from Xiaomi to complement your Mi3.
DeleteBut for me, I think more important is not to sit down too long. So I try to stand up and walk around every 15 minutes if I am sitting down.
ReplyDeleteMy Polar Loop will alert me if I sat for 1 hour and tell me it's time to walk around.
DeleteIf you walk more, then it's also likely you are sitting down less, so that's good :)
ReplyDeleteOh so you don't go running? Too heavy to run? Haha
ReplyDeleteOK lah if don't run, then walk also OK. Running has its pros and cons. I don't run for long distances because it's kinda hurt my legs. But I do run for short intervals, or I should say I sprint for a while, then walk for a while, then sprint again and repeat the cycle. That's my usual exercise :)
ReplyDeletewah....FoongPC seems doing circuit training !
DeleteWah! So long did not come to this blog, don't know what is happening in your world already. Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteEh.. what apps are you using to track your steps?
ReplyDeleteMerryn - You need the hardware like Iphone 6 or some other android phone that support it. Else, get a wrist band.
DeleteiPhone 5s kenot ah?
DeleteIs good to walk a bit when we have been sitting for a long time. I don't mind parking my car a little far away so that I get to walk a distance. This way of walking is considered exercise for me too.
ReplyDeleteSame here, I will park my car farther away from the destination and consider the walking as exercise... Of course sometimes depends on situations, like if it's raining then cannot already la!
DeleteMaybe for a start, you can consider training for a 5k or 10k run event. This will help or rather motivate you to run more and thus, increase your steps. Else, I still find it not easy to walk more daily to achieve the goal. I barely reach 5000 steps when I'm in Malaysia during the weekends.
ReplyDeleteHoho SK, see expert gives you advices already, hehe!
DeleteAnyway, I believe as long as you have the heart to start, nothing is impossible la SK. Can try ChrisAu's advice, start with something 'small', then eventually improve lo... No one is too heavy to run la wokay?
Oh oh... then I sure fail..where I got walk 10000 steps per day! No wonder I dont have much stamina one.. OK, I better start walking more tomorrow... last time I have a small gadget thing tied to my waist... it shows how many steps I walk each day... I must go cari it again so that I know how much steps done per day...
ReplyDeletewalking ah....hmmm...can i simpan till year end...sekaligus 1 million steps instead of 10,000 step every day LOL...year end you know got what even al...cham 15 days there sekali kau tim all the backlog lor
ReplyDeleteLOL>...for a moment there i thought you join Lina go running,
ReplyDeleteYou not too heavy for it la. Good also start walking now coz walking no GST ma. Can also help to be more healthy. no need go see doctor lor. Save money LOL
I have to park outside my condo as there is only one car park provided and I leave it for my hubby who go back home late. Walking in and out consider exercise hor... :P
ReplyDelete我在懷疑呢個app到底有幾準確。
ReplyDelete
