How to easily hit your step count
Hitting your step goal during prep can feel like a mission, especially as you get into the later stages, the tiredness is kicking in and the calories are getting low.
However, getting smart about HOW and WHEN you get your steps in can make all the difference and if done right can leave you feeling more uplifted and full of energy.
Here’s how to sneak in extra steps without even thinking about it:
Plus I share the best walking pad, the exact one I use - it is a game changer!
⌚️Break your steps up throughout the day - Spreading your steps out keeps your energy balanced, and prevents that last-minute panic (or dread) at the end of the day when you realise you still have 7000 steps to go!
🚶♀️ Park Further Away – Every little bit adds up! Whether it’s the grocery store, the gym, or work, parking a few rows back can add hundreds of extra steps without any extra effort.
🏋️♀️ Add 10 Minutes to Your Workouts – Start or finish your training with a quick 10-minute walk on the treadmil. It’s a game-changer for hitting your daily target without needing extra time in your day.
I also use this time to mentally prepare for my session, clear any last minute notifications on my phone and warm up my body.
🌎 Take Mini Walk Breaks – Got 10 minutes? Use it! A lap around the block between calls, after meals, or before bed can easily add an extra 1,000 steps over the day.
🍽️ Walk After Meals – A quick 5-10 minute walk after eating not only adds to your step count but also helps with digestion and keeps you feeling light and energized.
Walk with friends
Change your catch ups to walking dates, instead of sitting the coffee shop, get a takeaway and step while you chat. I also love to use this time to call friends and family overseas.
🔥 Walking Pad = Game Changer – My #1 hack for effortless steps. GET A WALKING PAD! This foldable walking treadmill fits right under the couch, so you can walk while scrolling, watching TV, or winding down after work. With the built-in phone holder, it’s perfect for catching up on socials, replying to emails, or watching a movie—all while getting your steps in. I use mine all the time, whether it’s a full 30-minute session or a quick 10-minute boost. It’s the easiest way to stay in the living room while staying on track.
The key to prep? Making movement a habit. Small changes = BIG results. Start early, stay consistent, and watch your step count soar! 🚀
