My daily exercise includes around 30-40mins vigorous jogging on the spot. These are the questions I would like answered:
Should a pedometer be used for such an exercise?
What counts as a step? If in a given amount of time my right foot hits the floor 10times how many steps have I done? This is mainly to check the calibration of the pedometer
Also what is the average amount of calories that are burnt in 10 minutes? I am 53kg and 1.73m height. On average the pedometer marks 27cal per 10 minutes which do seem a bit low :s
Thanks to all those who try to help me

most have a stride setting… figure out what your average stride is.. 2 feet or whatever. Select the one that is closest to yours. Use a tape measure and walk along, then stop and look at the distance between your feet, or walk in sand and measure the steps. set the meter accordingly
