How the converter works
- Distance: step length is about 41.4% of your height (the classic 0.413 for women and 0.415 for men), times your steps.
- Time: 80 steps a minute is an easy stroll, 100 is moderate (the research threshold for moderate-intensity walking) and 120 is brisk.
- Calories: metabolic equivalents from the Compendium of Physical Activities (3.0, 3.5 and 4.3 METs for easy, moderate and brisk walking) times your weight and walking time.
Treat the results as good estimates rather than lab measurements. Terrain, stride and fitness all move the numbers a little, and a phone or watch may count steps slightly differently.
