As per many health estimates, 10,000 steps per day is a reasonable target for healthy adults. Even with a raging pandemic around us, we don't have to compromise on our health parameters. Put on a pedometer and start walking - be it inside your compound, your garden, from one end of your home to the other end or simply climb up and down your stairs while the machine keeps a tab on the number of your steps.

Walking is a great way to maintain the following health parameters - weight, manage various conditions including heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, cancer and type 2 diabetes, improve cardiovascular fitness and strengthen your bones and muscles. Never mind, if one can't step out of the house, let your pedometer keep a track of your walking schedule indoors.
