Accelerometer-Determined Steps per Day in US Adults
Tudor-Locke C et al. - The results of this nationally representative survey indicate that US adults take approximately 10,000 uncensored accelerometer-determined steps per day, which is improbable considering other studies of free-living physical activity in the United States.
