About this episode
What do Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, and the “10,000 steps a day” rule have in common? They’re all a little mysterious… and maybe a bit made up.
In this solo episode, personal trainer Tara breaks down the truth behind the 10K steps myth and shares what the research actually says about how many steps you need for better health. Spoiler: it’s not as much as you’ve been told.
In this episode:
Why the 10,000-step target isn’t rooted in science
What studies show about how fewer steps still create massive health benefits
The real number of daily steps that make a difference
Easy, creative ways to sneak in more movement (without hitting the gym)
Why any movement is better than none—and how to make it count
Whether you’re a weekend walker, a desk dweller, or a step-count queen, this episode will leave you feeling encouraged, informed, and totally seen.
