Pedometers Increase Waking


People who set daily walking goals for themselves and clip on a pedometer to count the number of steps they take go farther in life than those who don't - a whole mile farther, in fact.

New research from Stanford Medical School shows that people who use a pedometer walk about 2,000 steps - or 1 mile - more every day than those who don't, and along the way they lose a little weight and lower their blood pressure.
