Walking 20 Thousand Steps a Day

Does walking that much burn belly fat?

[@timeandtideplans]

That's a good question. You might like this article - www.healthline.com/nutrition/walking-for-weight-loss#TOC_TITLE_HDR_4 It mentions a study done on walking and waist circumference. It also mentions the difference in calorie expenditure between walking and running. I did a similar test on myself and found that too be true for me. Very interesting!

I eat a plant-exclusive diet and along with that and 20k steps a day, i lost 3 dress sizes in 6 weeks going from uk size 14 to uk size 8 US size 10 to US size 4

That’s roughly my goal Uk size 12-14 to a 10 in 6 weeks

[@Goodbyeeveryonehere]

Good luck. There is something you should know tho my 20k steps a day were done over 3 x 1 hour walks, not just a few steps here and there. Fat is burned when we walk for at least 30 minutes at a time. Anyone just doing 20k steps everyday a few at a time will not get the same result.

[@GameFreak4Ever]

After many years of running, I endured many injuries. I decided to just walk for the last two years. That's been working for me. Recently I noticed weight gain. I decided to up my steps per days, fasting and watch my calories. That the last week I have done 20k a day and noticed: more energy, loss weight, sleep longer and feel better. I want to do a full month. Normally I avg 300k-400k steps per month.

[@johnmininger7472]

In December, 2022 I challenged myself to walk at least 20K steps a day for a month. I was able to do it but wow, it takes a lot of time, often taking much of my evening after work on top of first thing in the morning and during lunch on the majority of days. On Dec 30 I walked 35K steps and on New Years Eve I wrapped it up with 40K steps; I loved finishing strong. I have never been overweight so I did lose weight I didn't need to lose but it was worth it for all the other benefits and I certainly would recommend it to anybody who has struggled with their weight as many in my family have. In the last 4 years I had ACL reconstruction and 2 herniated discs so I was at the point I needed to alter my exercise routine; walking is a good low-impact workout.

Walking is all around amazing for everyone and many health reasons. I know its not as good as getting outside and actually walking, but I walk in place at my desk at work or if I am at home I use my treadmill with lap top mount or just march in place at home with my lap top on a shelf or something. I aim for 15k a day on my fitbit. I put my fitbit around my ankle so it can count the steps since my hands are typing on my computer. At first I was shy of what people in the office thought but I do not care any more. If its nice outside I will take my little kids on a walk with the baby in the stroller after work, Walking has been my old faithful when it comes to losing weight its the really the only thing I always stay consistent with.

Lost a couple of kg so far but i think that its just been water weight so far so im excited for the real results

10k done consistently is so many steps! I used to watch any and all vlogs of people living their lives getting in their steps.

Would it be better for me to start with 10K first? Or just go straight into 20K? I noticed a lot of times my desk job and throughout the day, I have around 3k steps.

[@timeandtideplans]

One helpful activity I did last year was to track my time - I recorded in a day planner exactly what I was doing and how long it took all day. You would want to create a realistic goal. Some days 20k steps is just not possible for me based on what I need to accomplish in other areas of my life. If you record your time you can see where you have pockets during the day to get up and walk during work, if you have time in the morning and where you might be able to replace a stationary activity with an active one. Test it out for a week and then set your goal. I wanted mine challenging, but something I could realistically do. My least favorite feeling is not being able to finish something I start. Also- figure out how long it takes you to reach a certain step count and how fast you have to walk. I made another video about doing a 30k day and how I had worked out the math on all of it. I’ll link it here too ❤️

Now I do 500 steps every hour (6 minutes). It hurt a little bit at the end of the day for the first 3 days then improved from there. Planning to add 30 min walks now that my body can handle the strain better. My goal is to get to 20k a day incorporating short and long walks

[@Joanna-ho8ph]

I did a hour a day walking it's supposed to be for 30 days next Sunday will be my 30-day. I haven't lost a pound it just kept me at the same weight. Now I'm going to try to 20000 steps a day see how that works.

I planned this in February 2020. Our state locked down mid-March 2020. I lived in a rural area. If you watched my video and the pictures I shared it’s just me outside. I felt weird towards the end of March not because I was around people, but because I was self-conscious of my neighbors thinking I was irresponsible looking outside their windows. I was never near anyone outside of our house and outside soaking up some vitamin D, and ensuring my mental fitness was strong to help my family through everything ❤️❤️

@@timeandtideplans that was my point - you said you felt bad being outside and walked in your house, but you were in no danger of Covid outside alone.

That’s too much weight to lose in too short a time period. It’s really bad for you and it will likely all come back.

We were moving and walking an hour in the morning and after dinner allowed me the space to think. When I was most successful with sticking to walking I gamified it. I used Fitbit, shared my results on Instagram to keep me accountable, and tracked my steps in my planner each day. I want to explore this idea in the next month - thank you so much for the comment.

2 miles outside for me is about 4,000 steps. I can do 2 miles walking with elevation change in about 30 minutes. I have a planning video on my walking time cheat sheet kzbin.info/www/bejne/iX2mpGN6fbimbNE 10 minutes walking in place in doors gives me just over 1,000. Knowing how long it takes to get those steps in is so important if you have a step goal. For example, my assumption at the time was that I was way more active at work than I actually was. That was a wake up call when it came to my time management. Having some form of pedometer whether it’s on a watch or just something you clip on you as you walk is such a helpful tool as you go about your day. I really enjoy collecting data on myself and having sun with those numbers 🥰

It's between 2 and half to 3 hrs to do 20k steps but it also depends how fast you walk of course but average I'd say 3hrs

Hi there, what was your walking pace? I have been walking for two years now, except when winter comes like the motivation to want to do any kind of excersice is gone, buuuut when I do walk, I walk at a somewhat fast pace, and I start getting calluses on my big toe, was your walking pace, well of course more than like a "browsing" walk.

[@timeandtideplans]

This video shows more of what my walks were like around our old neighborhood with stats kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXralqCCiNuXd9U - my feet were fine after awhile, with some calluses.

[@L1L2L3L4S]

Wow awesome!🙌🏻 how much weight/ dress size did you lose?

[@2ezy877]

So how much weight you lost ?

[@timeandtideplans]

1 pound a week consistently- If I did this again I would have paid more attention to what I ate as well for better results.

[@maril1379]

Great video Gave thumbs up and subscribed. I did 20K yesterday but I find it better to break it up instead of walking -let us say 6 miles straight.

[@timeandtideplans]

That's so awesome!! I agree. My goal was and still is to be naturally more active throughout the day than trying to get it all in at once.

[@jayden3759]

Walking is amazing for health and weight loss the secret is you need to raise your heart rate get the lungs 🫁 working walk at a brisk pace and use inclines start with 10,000 steps a day aim for 20,000 a day once you get used to the 10,000

[@scf7334]

Wow, so awesome! I’m working my way back up to 10k a day and feel like that’s a lot some days. 🙃 You’re so lucky to live in beautiful WA state! I lived in Seattle for 15 years and loved it sooooo much! It’s a gorgeous place and perfect for walking year-round (even in the rain). I never walked as much as I did when I lived there.

[@timeandtideplans]

10k is a lot!! I agree - I feel very lucky to live somewhere with clean air, moderate temps, and beautiful views while I’m out and about. Wishing you the best in reaching your goals 🙌

[@scf7334]

@@timeandtideplans Thank you so much - you, too!

[@tariqameen4580]

Ur 20000 steps is 2700 calories and my 20000 is just over 1300 calories. And I weigh 100kg. What is wrong?

[@timeandtideplans]

Good question. How are you measuring your calorie output? How many calories do you burn with little to no activity? What’s the difference between no activity and 20,000 steps? My personal no activity calorie burn is around 1,400 calories according to my Fitbit. My calorie burn for 20k steps varied by a couple hundred depending on if I was walking up hills outdoors or walking in place at my home. I used Fitbit to monitor my calories, steps, mileage, etc.

[@victoriarose4506]

A lot of people think Fitbit grossly over-estimates calorie burn because they don't realize it includes everything in the daily calorie burn, not just exercise. I've read posts by people who say things like, "I just woke up and my Fitbit says I've already burned 800 calories today. What a joke!" Or something like that, because they didn't realize Fitbit tracks calories burned just by being alive! Anyways, 1300 calories burned for 20k steps sounds about right for someone who weighs 100kg, just for the exercise part. You should easily be burning 3000+ calories a day with the exercise combined with other typical expenditures, up to and including your heart pumping, lungs working, etc. 😅

[@timeandtideplans]

@@victoriarose4506 thank you for taking the time to share! I had so much fun tracking my Fitbit during 4x4x48. I would note the different calorie expenditure of each walk based on the terrain and time of day. The body is so cool.

[@jayden3759]

Everybody burns calories differently it all depends on height weight heart rate etc

[@hamoody703]

I'm doing 20k a day for the whole summer

[@timeandtideplans]

Smart! The extra daylight and (depending on where you are) better weather would be so helpful.

[@Melissa-hg3de]

My goal is 40, 000 steps 6 days a week

[@timeandtideplans]

Wow! That's a lot of time to think to yourself white getting in your steps, unless you work an active job.

[@Melissa-hg3de]

@@timeandtideplans I do work an active job. I work at a shoe department store in the mall

[@_MAKAROV]

Can you please tell me. Cause i am walking 35k steps a day should i do it at once time or it a challenge for whole day. Now i am doing like 10k at morning and 25k at evening

[@timeandtideplans]

Wow, that's a lot of steps every day! I have a video on how I planned my day of 30,000 steps, but that was just me kzbin.info/www/bejne/iX2mpGN6fbimbNE You'll have to figure out what works best for you.

[@RacerX1971]

If you are near a mall, walk around. Time will go by quickly.

[@timeandtideplans]

Best idea!

[@brandsecrets2022]

20k steps is only 1000 calories...where did you get those numbers from?

[@timeandtideplans]

A person expends calories by just being alive - I burn 1600 calories a day "at rest" - that means sitting most of the day, sleeping, etc. You would then add on your "active calories" to that total, so for example the 1000 you mentioned, giving you a daily calorie burn of 2,600. On top of my "at rest" calories, my "active calories" vary depending on the activity I'm engaged in. Walking calories vary depending on incline and speed I'm walking at. The numbers are real 🤷‍♀️ Hope that helps.

[@brandsecrets2022]

@@timeandtideplans ah ok, but the way you phrased it in the video makes it seem like that was purely from walking. All good. Well done on the walking, i do 20k a day :)

[@timeandtideplans]

@@brandsecrets2022 noted - thank you! Awesome on the 20k - it’s a commitment 🙌💪

[@pamlovell9125]

Soooo you're saying that exercising made you more hungry. Ugh.

[@timeandtideplans]

Right? It did and it didn't. I don't know if I was physically hungry, or it was a mental thing. Maybe seeing when some days I burned 3,000 calories I thought somewhere in my subconscious I can eat a lot more.

[@mohdfaizi2111]

Look more beautiful 😘❤️

[@carlhopkinson]

That "making it up" is NOT a good idea.

[@mitulsharma9853]

Thanks frm india

[@timeandtideplans]

It's my pleasure!

[@NeilWillmore]

Not going to read all the other replies, but my take away from walking a lot is, a, if you can't do it you are mentally weak, b, doing it for weight loss not going to work, c, calorie counters on step trackers are way off, d, all the things she talks about facetime etc, you are on a stroll, not a walk, a walk is 4 to 4.5 mph

[@Michael-id9bw]

10k steps a day is plenty, and it's basically been proven that anything beyond that is not all that beneficial.

[@SnoopyReads]

It doesn't hurt you tho, this is the key to quick weight loss. You literally burn an extra 7,000 calories a week. That's 2 pounds of fat, even if you don't change your diet

[@MrMisza72]

20000 steps a day is about 10-14 km. You are short person so rather 10km. It gives us 6miles a day and 600-700ccal. Conclusion: False in first minute of film.

[@timeandtideplans]

20,000 steps a day worked out to typically 8+ miles a day for me and 2,800 calories burned for the day 🕺 brisk walking + my usual calorie burn of just being a person confirms that number my friend.

[@MsKassandraKotaku]

Interesting math here, but I think her math/fitbit gives a better answer than you guessing math. Also I went 30k steps today and it was 12 miles and it isn’t the end of the day and I’m already at 2,800 calories burned (for the day total not just from walking)...so once again interesting math sir.

[@timeandtideplans]

@@MsKassandraKotaku that's awesome!!

[@kimberlypaniagua6411]

I think you are correct if you count only the steps calories. That’s what my app is estimating for my 20,000. However maybe her watch is super fancy and counts everything she does? Like the calories she burns just to be alive together with the steps?

[@Swearengen1980]

​@@MsKassandraKotaku There is no watch in the world that can accurately predict calories burned. It's nothing but an algorithm based on steps and heart rate. Steps on fitbits are calculated by an average stride, to which you'd have to adjust up or down depending on your own. Heart rates factors are irrelevant because the watch doesn't know if you're walking, jogging, running, and what your cardiovascular health is. The fitbit doesn't know your metabolism or your diet. It's absurd to rely on a watch or even a generic formula to know how many calories you've been. The reality is, there is no truly accurate way of knowing. It's a very loose estimation and can be vary as much as hundreds calories.
