- A device that estimates how many steps you have taken based on the number of hip swings and foot strikes performed
- Conceptualized by Leonardo DaVinci in the 15th century
- Provides immediate feedback, giving you information on your activity level
- Serves as an environmental tool that reminds you to be active
- ALL THE TIME!
- (Except when you are sleeping! J)
*Please note: The pedometer is NOT waterproof
- Put your pedometer on in the morning IMMEDIATELY after you get dressed
- Clip the step counter to your belt or waistband directly over your knee OR at the side of your hip - which ever feels most comfortable
- Reset the counter to zero by pressing the yellow button
- You can check the pedometer throughout the day by unlatching the clasp BUT remember to close the lid so it will continue counting your steps
- (The pedometer will NOT count steps with the lid open!)
- Record your daily steps before going to bed
