MODERATE STEP FUNCTION

This pedometer displays the number of steps and minutes walked at a moderate or brisk pace in a day. Moderate intensity activity is defined as 3.0 to 6.0 METs by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM). The unit automatically determines if the pace is a moderate or brisk by minute.

NOTES:

The “moderate” display will blink on the display after the first minute has been completed.

METs represents the ratio of exercise metabolic rate. One MET is defined as the energy expenditure at resting condition, which, for an average adult, is approximately 3.5 ml of oxygen intake per kilogram (2.2 lb) of body weight per minute.

ACSM and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) physical activity recommendation for adults is at least 30 minutes of moderate intensity activity 5 or more days per week. Moderate to brisk walking at approximately 3.0 to 4.5 mph (may differ in individuals) is one of the most popular activities to meet this recommendation.

NOTE:

Walking up or down stairs or a steep slope, and walking on treadmill may not be counted as moderate steps.

CALORIE AND DISTANCE DISPLAY

The calorie is calculated by the height, weight and activity level while walking. The distance is calclulated by the height and walking pace.
