You don't have to do 10,000 steps per day.........

I get about 12,000k in a day.2 plus miles with the dog in the morning and then whatever exercise ( Apple Watch includes steps done in cardio like HITT, STEP and kickboxing) and then reg life stuff

That is a good point. Unfortunately, I don't have a treadmill at my house. If I want to use the treadmill, I have to go to the gym and at that point I'd rather just walk outside.
