Pedometer Features
The average American takes 5,000 steps a day, which is only half of the 10,000 daily steps recommended to achieve good health. For weight loss, 12,000 to 15,000 steps a day will help you achieve your goals. But who's got time to count? That's where the pedometer comes in. A pedometer is a nifty little gadget that counts your footsteps by sensing your body motion. They range in price from $5 and up. Here are some common features that will affect the price and versatility of your pedometer:
* Distance and speed estimators (calculated by programming average stride length, or with a GPS system, which is more accurate)
* Calorie expenditure estimators (calculated by programming weight)
* Stopwatches
* Heart rate monitor
* Steps per minute
* Computer compatibility, which allows the user to upload data from the pedometer and graph stepping progress.
* Flip Case (to prevent accidental button pressing)
* One of the most important features a pedometer can boast, however, is comfort. It should not be bulky and should include a safety strap, so you don't drop it down the toilet. The best place to wear a pedometer is at the waist, aligned with the knee.
