​
Whether you walk, run, cycle, swim, or train in the gym, all activity can be converted into step equivalents so everyone can participate.

Step Conversion Made Easy
Not a walker? No problem!
​
The tracking sheet includes an automatic step converter. Simply enter your activity and the number of minutes completed, and the sheet will calculate your step equivalent automatically.
​
Example:
Cycling for 45 minutes converts to 10,350 steps.
​
No calculations required. There is also a conversion chart available on the tracking sheet on the second tab called "CONVERSION".
