Episode 268: How I get 12,000 steps a day


Listen Later

Last week I shared the 4 things that have helped me maintain my weight for the last 6+ years.

This week we’re doing a deep dive on one of them: steps.

Because I consistently get 11–13k steps a day and it’s not coming from workouts.

It’s coming from how I structure my day.
In this episode, I break down:
* the difference between movement and exercise and why most people rely too much on workouts
* why you’ll never hit higher step counts from exercise alone
* how I actually build steps into my day (without it taking over my life)
* the mistake people make when trying to increase steps 
* how to start where you are and build this up without going from 0 → 12k overnight

This is one of the most underrated actions for weight maintenance, fat loss, and just feeling better in your body.
