Frequently Asked Questions
At an average stride length of 76 cm, 1 km equals approximately 1,316 steps. This varies based on your height: taller people have longer strides and need fewer steps per km.
10,000 steps is approximately 7.6 km (4.7 miles) at an average stride length of 76 cm. At the WHO-recommended 10,000 steps per day, that is about 2,774 km per year — equivalent to walking across India.
A person weighing 70 kg burns approximately 400 calories walking 10,000 steps. Calorie burn scales with body weight — a 90 kg person burns around 514 calories for the same distance. Terrain and walking speed also affect the total.
Walk 10 steps at a natural pace, measure the total distance in meters, then divide by 10. Alternatively, multiply your height in cm by 0.414 for a good estimate (e.g., 170 cm × 0.414 = 70 cm stride). This calculator uses this formula for the Auto mode.
