Another piece of research about the mythical 10,000 steps. A February 2020 study by Brigham Young University found that,

  • “Exercise alone is not always the most effective way to lose weight,"

  • "If you track steps, it might have a benefit in increasing physical activity, but our study showed it won't translate into maintaining weight or preventing weight gain."

  • "The biggest benefit of step recommendations is getting people out of a sedentary lifestyle,"

  • "Even though it won't prevent weight gain on its own, more steps is always better for you."
