Pedometer watches: What are frequently asked questions?
How does a pedometer watch work?
With the help of a sensor, your movements while wearing the watch count your steps as you walk. To ensure the most accurate step count possible, you should wear the watch with the display on the outside of your wrist. If the wristband is too loose, it may not be possible to measure your steps at all or they may be inaccurate. The wristband should therefore sit firmly on your wrist.
How does my watch measure steps?
Pedometer watches usually have a motion sensor that tracks your movements. The watches from G-SHOCK and PRO TREK have additional features to make the measurement of your steps even more precise.
If the watches are connected to the smartphone app via Bluetooth, your steps can also be measured via GPS. This ensures an even more accurate measurement of the distance you have travelled.
How useful is a pedometer?
Pedometers can be a useful addition to your everyday life to monitor your physical activity and fitness. By setting a physical activity goal, such as walking at least 5,000 or 10,000 steps per day, you can motivate yourself to lead a more active lifestyle. A pedometer will help you measure these goals more easily and make them easier to achieve.
How many are 10,000 steps in kilometres?
A popular exercise goal is 10,000 steps per day. Depending on your height and stride length, this corresponds to around 6 to 8 kilometres.
