1 Researchers studied a group of men that typically walk approximately 10,000 steps per day (as measured by a pedometer) and asked them to reduce their steps to only 1,350 per day. 2  This meant taking elevators instead of stairs, driving to work and lunch.
Numbers as low as 6,000 steps per day were shown to correlate with a lower death rate in men. Experts view 10,000 steps per day as too few for children. But 10,000 steps can be too challenging for people who are elderly, sedentary, or who have chronic diseases.
