Another way to rack up some steps: errands. I generally have a shopping list, but I've also taken to going down all the aisles. Sometimes I actually remember to pick up things that weren't on the list, but mostly it's a way to just keep moving. And a trip to Costco can mean a lot of steps if you are thorough. ha ha! Also I park farther away from the doors (ok, unless it's raining). It's not about saving time, but moving, moving.
Great video! I started on 1/1/23 with a daily step goal. I work in the office but 90% in the home office. So I don't even have a commute to work. My goal is 8,000 steps and I've managed that so far. I use a Fitbit - it reminds me to get up and move every hour. I go for a walk at least once a day. Sometimes twice a day. It's doable but sometimes hard. I sometimes watched a lot of TV in the evenings, now I collect steps.
Great tips. I used to be a teacher, so walked around a lot. Now, I work from home. I do try to take a walk in the morning, before work. I live in Florida, so it’s hot 🔥 during the day. I do take walks in the evening. It’s currently getting even hotter (90’s in April), so I try to push myself to take my evening walk around 5:30pm when I pick a family member up from work. But I will have to start taking my walks around 7pm due to the heat.
Good idea walking while brushing 🪥your teeth - I am going to try that now! Much better than my idea of using a treadmill and bucket systems while 💩 ing

Very helpful! Thanks for tracking the data. Great job!
Walked around the house watching this video 😂 thanks for some ideas since I work from home as well
Thanks for the info! Lots of ways to add a few more steps each day.
Your dog is so so cute!
Thank you! 💜
Great video Laura ! And awesome tips! I definitely add some of them in my daily routine to hit my 7000 step goal ! ✌️💯✌️
Thanks so much! The little things certainly add up! I think 7K steps is a GREAT goal!!
Haha if I walk around the house while brushing my teeth, my husband will usurp the bathroom and who knows when I can get back in.
I started with 5,000 now i'm at 16,000 give or taKE
I totally could do this if I worked at home. But I work 10 hour days away from home.
first
It's impossible to do 10.000 steps with an office job.
You can do maybe 2-3 times a week.
Only impossible if you decide it is. This video was the perfect example of what is very doable
Thank You@@chalenejohnson.
It’s not. I hit 10,980 yesterday. You just have to commit.
You understood squat of what I said.

I thought this would be on how to walk in an actual office. 😢
