How many miles a day should I walk. I am 14 years old not athlete or anything. Just want to know how to get enough exercise to not get fat or be a couch potato. Currently I do a 3 mile walk one day. Than a 1 mile work for the next 2 days. Than a 3 mile walk. Than the next days I don’t do anything. Please note that I’m not a track runner and don’t want to be one. And tell me the equipment I should use. I currently use. A water bottle, Pedometer, and watch. I won’t get lost because I know every street in the area.
I work in nursing home, I keep track of how many steps I walk on a pedometer, today I cam home and it said, 11,198 steps. I’m just wondering how many calories I burned– walking at a moderate pace average. I am 5′6 and I weigh 151.4lbs.
If I eat roughly 1700 calories per day, and walk 8 miles per day (my pedometer calculates this to burn roughly 900 calories) plus exercise intensely for an hour (burning roughly 600 calories) – am I eating enough?
I don’t feel hungry but I don’t understand how this can be right.
Neglecting my BMR for a second, this comes out to be 1700 – (600 + 900) = 200 calories intake.
Can someone please explain this to me?
I know this has been asked before, but the best answer contained essentially the same info as in on WW eTools – that to earn 1 activity point, if you weight up to 149 lbs, you would need to do 35 min of low intensity activity.
This doesn’t really do me any good because I have a pedometer that measures my calories, steps, distance, but doesn’t tell me how many minutes I spent walking.
Is there a formula I can use to calculate WW Activity Points based on calories burned? Thank you -
