June 14 - 7,000 steps
June 15 - 14 mile bike ride
June 16 - Went for a 3 mile walk and will finish up 10,000 steps later today

Yesterday my daughter and I walked outside for a while and then I finished up my 10,000 steps by alternating jogging and walking inside.

June 18 I was having low calcium issues so I only got in 8,000 steps because I wasn't feeling well.
June 19 I was able to jog a mile and then walk until I got to over 12,000 steps. I'm trying to get back up to 15,000 steps a day but I think my calcium levels are throwing me off at times.

Today I jogged a mile and a quarter and then finished up walking until I reached 11,000 steps. I wanted to walk outside some more but the rain is stopping me and I don't feel like moving right now

I try to work out 3 times a week at the gym but love watching YouTube videos to try and get more tips and ideas on how to perform at the gym. Thank you for sharing!

Yesterday I finished up around 12,000 steps and today I'm already at 11,000 steps and might walk some more later. My husband and I went to the park to walk and some of those hills were tough on the thighs!

Yesterday I ended up with over 15,000 steps and today I'm over 16,000 steps. Working my way up to 20,000 slowly and my plan is to do that 3 days a week this summer.

With the exception of yesterday (I only got in 5,500 steps because I had a bad headache) I have been doing 15,000 plus steps daily from the 24th through today.

I've been getting over 15,000 steps from my job at Walmart. Now my legs are sore. I lost ten pounds though!

That's great news!! Is it also helping you sleep better at night?

I couldn't hold my 15,000+ plus steps because it was causing knee pain so I dropped it back down to 10,000 steps a day. I've been walking moderately and today I added a video since I haven't done them in a while.

In the past week I've been achieving 10,000 to 12,000 steps a day with the exception of one day and I got in 7,000 but that's because we were at the movies all afternoon so it was hard to catch up after that.

My knees can't handle my going over 12,000 steps so I'll try to keep it around that number for now.

I'm almost at 12,000 steps today. I did this video today to help with my arms:

My husband and I walked this morning and I did this video now:

I've been trying to get between 10,000 to 12,000 steps and today I might only get to 10,000. If I don't go walking with my husband then I at least try to get some steps in around the house. If I'm watching TV then at commercials I get up and walk in place or walk around. Gotta keep moving.

Lamb · Jul 18, 2019

Still getting in between 10,000-12,000 steps a day.

Today I did this video while waiting for my washing machine to arrive

Still getting 10,000 - 12,000 steps a day. Today I'm at 11,000 now and I've done these two videos to help with that boost to get over 10,000 steps:

Lamb · Jul 24, 2019

Yesterday I did a 2 mile walk outside and then finished walking inside to have 11,000 steps. Today I did 2 miles again and will reach my goal of 10,000 steps at least.

Can these workout tighten our muscles or is it recommended to hit the gym?

You can increase muscle slightly by doing some of the workouts I have in my thread but consistency is the key and increasing weight when needed. I forget to use my weights so I'm behind on building up my arms like my plan was. My legs have gotten a lot stronger by walking and doing the workouts.

I don't care for gyms so I prefer to do everything at home or go out and walk.

If you want to build larger muscles the chances are the gym will be your best bet. If you're looking to strengthen muscles and tone up generally then brisk walking or cycling can do that for your legs even if it doesn't necessarily do much for your arms.

I haven't been to a gym in years but my leg muscles are bulky simply because of the hiking and cycling I've done. Hauling someone my size (I'm about 6'3 and weigh around 250) up big hills takes muscle power, so my leg muscles responded and grew.
