How it works

Walking stride ≈ height × 0.415 (men) / 0.413 (women); running stride ≈ 1.57 × walking stride

Distance = steps × stride; calories = MET × weight × hours

Given: Man, 170 cm, 65 kg, 10,000 steps at a normal pace

Result: About 7.06 km (4.4 miles) and 334 kcal.

How far is 10,000 steps?

It depends on stride. At 170 cm (5'7") a man's walking stride is about 70 cm, so 10,000 steps ≈ 7 km (4.4 miles).

How is stride length estimated?

Walking stride ≈ height × 0.415 (men) or × 0.413 (women). For accuracy, walk 10 steps, measure, and divide by 10.

Do I need 10,000 steps a day?

Research suggests about 7,000–8,000 steps a day already lowers health risks noticeably; more helps, with diminishing returns.
