"Steps" is a coarse metric, it just happens to be rather easy to measure compared to other biometrics.
Side note, most counters estimate your step length based on your height, weight, age, gender, and also allow you to program your step length manually if you like.
- pdx 11y agoThey may estimate your step length, but they don't adjust your daily goal based on that step length.
- sliverstorm 11y agoMine, at least, dynamically adjusts my daily goal based on what I usually hit, plus a "stretch" factor to give you something to strive for. Like, "You hit 7,000 steps every day last week, let's see if you can hit 7,500"
- brlewis 11y agoYour daily goal doesn't have to be steps. You can switch it to distance, calories, or (if your tracker supports it) floors climbed.
