I walk 12-15k steps in Europe every day with no effort. In California now. Can barely get 10k.
Adds up quick in Europe:
2-3k to walk dog and get coffee in morning
3.5k to gym
3.5k back home
1-2k dog afternoon or evening walk
3-5k walk to cafe or dinner
I have to say, since I’ve been back here in America, I definitely feel worse physically. It’s all about not moving. I have to drive just about everywhere I go. Including the gym. There’s just no reason to walk except just for the sake of actually going for a walk (which I do every day, but still doesn’t make up for the day-to-day in Europe).
