La sociedad actual está cada día más mentalizada de que los beneficios de la actividad física inciden en una mejor calidad de vida. De hecho, cada día es más frecuente ver gente de todas las edades que sale a caminar para mantenerse activa. ¿Por qué emplear entonces un podómetro? Porque lo bueno es que con un podómetro enseguida se aprende que cada paso cuenta. Al registrar tus pasos por ti, este práctico aparatito se convierte en un instrumento de motivación maravillosamente eficaz. Con la actual recomendación de al menos 10.000 pasos al día para mantener una buena salud, estar en forma o adelgazar, descubrirás que puedes acumularlos mientras haces la compra, paseas al perro e incluso sales a almorzar. Con sólida información sobre la elección y el uso del podómetro, perspicaces sugerencias para construirse un estilo de vida (y un barrio) más favorable a caminar y un programa de seis semanas para darte cuerda, Caminar con podómetro es probablemente una de las herramientas de ejercicio físico más importantes aparecidas en muchos años.

Mark Fenton, television personality and author of the best-selling Complete Guide to Walking, teams up with top exercise researcher, David R. Bassett, to help readers get moving. These guys know what works, and they've got pedometers on the brain. During the last ten years, pedometer use has grown exponentially. "Step counting" broke into the exercise vocabulary when Oprah started sporting her own pedometer, and the mania has only grown. Ten years ago there were five pedometers on the market; today there are dozens. But what to do with them? Hearing the cries for solid information, authors David R. Bassett and Mark Fenton have stepped up. Covered in this guide are a history of step counting--Jefferson was a fan, and a pedometer was designed by Leonardo da Vinci--advice on choosing a pedometer, and a guide to starting a pedometer program, with looks at successful ones in the U.S., Australia, and Europe. Most important may be the chapters treating the tremendously successful 10,000-steps-per-day programs initiated in Japan, as well as the modifications it needs to work for children and senior citizens. Aside from the pedometer itself, Pedometer Walking may be one of the most important exercise tools in years.
