Question 1

How many calories does 10,000 steps burn?

About 300–500 kcal for most adults. A 70 kg person burns ~400 kcal at a moderate pace. Weight and speed are the main factors.

Question 2

How many steps per day is healthy?

10,000 steps is a common goal, but 7,000–8,000/day significantly reduces mortality risk. Any increase from your current baseline is beneficial.

Yes. 3,000–5,000 extra steps/day can lose ~0.5–1 lb/month without diet changes. Combined with a calorie deficit, the effect multiplies.

Question 4

How long to walk 10,000 steps?
