If you're logging fewer than 5,000 steps daily with your pedometer, you need to step up your efforts. Walking 5,000 or fewer steps throughout the course of the day -- about 2 ½ miles -- is deemed sedentary behavior according to new activity guidelines. Most people log between 2,000 and 5,000 steps daily by performing everyday activities. Step up your activity level so that you squarely land in the "active" category, which requires 10,000 daily steps.
