Regular walking produces many health benefits, including reducing our risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes and depression. 日常散步对健康有很多好处，包括降低得心脏病、II型糖尿病和抑郁症的风险。 Best of all, it's free, we can do it anywhere and, for most of us, it's relatively easy to fit into our daily routines. 最棒的是，散步是免费的，在哪里都能做，而且对大多数人来说，在日常活动中加上散步很容易做到。 We often hear 10,000 as the golden number of steps to strive for in a day. But do we really need to take 10,000 steps a day? 我们常听到说每天一万步是最佳数量。但是我们每天真的需要走到一万步吗？ Not necessarily. This figure was originally popularized as part of a marketing campaign, and has been subject to some criticism. But if it gets you walking more, it might be a good goal to work towards. 不用。这个数字最初是作为营销的一部分火起来的，已经受到了很多的质疑。但是如果这能激励你走得更多的话，一万步不失为一个很好的目标。 Where did 10,000 come from? 但1万这个数字到底是怎么来的？ The 10,000 steps concept was initially formulated in Japan in the lead-up to the 1964 Tokyo Olympics. There was no real evidence to support this target. Rather, it was a marketing strategy to sell step counters. |
