Re: #6 Weekly Pedometer Challenge

Mine has a sensitivity adjuster. If yours has too, you have to try different levels to find out which is best for your individual .

My numbers so far:


Monday 6th - 10,371
Tuesday 7th - 9,665

Tot so far: 20,036/65,000

Re: #6 Weekly Pedometer Challenge

I lost my good pedometer so I'm using a cheapo right now until my new one gets here. The numbers seem a little off - not sure if it is counting all my steps.

Monday - 8,794
Tuesday - 9,145

Re: #6 Weekly Pedometer Challenge

i didn't think mine was so cheap but perhaps it is in the grand scheme of things.
i don't have that particular adjust on mine, sal, at least not that i have found.
i'll continue to just keep walking to get the steps in this week but i think next week i will have to adjust down.

Re: #6 Weekly Pedometer Challenge

i tried it out, just testing things and for once up and once down the stairs, at 14 steps per flight the pedometer said i did anywhere from 48 to 55. should have only registered 28. i was just going to try to use it for my flights when i use the step stool but i think it's going to be a no go.
i even changed the stride number but that didn't help any.

Well, we went out for dinner last weekend and took DH's car (which is not comfortable to me so we rarely do) and I noticed that my pedometer was racking up the steps! His car is so bumpy, that's why! I was watching it. So whatever day that was I deducted 1,000 steps due to the car.

Re: #6 Weekly Pedometer Challenge

Silly... mine does that too on bumpy roads! No avoiding it... grrrrrr! I try to keep honest by adjusting down when it does that, and I think I have a little leeway as I don't really put the thing on until breakfast time, when I've already clocked up some "moving around the house, washing and dressing" steps.

Do you find that now that we've done a few weeks, you can guage within a pretty good margin, how many you do? Well... I think I can... sort of!!

Re: #6 Weekly Pedometer Challenge

Yeah Sally I can! I know fully well when my # is going to be on the low side! Can you believe we've been doing this for 6 weeks?

THANKS CYNTHIA!

Today: 10,351 as of 5:00 pm so I'm taking it off, and no, I didn't drive in DH's car!

Total 27,962/50,000
