You may be thinking to yourself, "That sounds pretty good." Unfortunately, it's not. Those 4,000 steps merely account for those walked from the car to the office, from the workstation to the cafeteria and from the office back to the car.
In 2006, the North American Association for the Study of Obesity reported 64 percent of American adults were classified as being overweight or obese, and this is not a new trend. Former Surgeon General C. Everett Koop founded the Shape Up America! program in 1994, and since then the program has adopted a fitness benchmark for Americans: to walk 10,000 steps a day, every day.
