The popular “10,000 steps a day” rule isn’t scientifically proven, says neuroscientist Dr. Wendy Suzuki. Research shows benefits start at around 7,000 steps, and even short bursts of movement improve health. Experts emphasize that every step counts, with smaller targets reducing risks of heart disease. Alternatives like high-intensity interval training are recommended for busy schedules, encouraging people to focus on enjoyable, consistent movement rather than rigid goals. |
