Step Up UCI is a pedometer based walking program designed to encourage better
health by increasing
your typical daily activity (non-exercise activity thermogenesis).
We’ll give you a pedometer
when you register.
Many veterans of Step Up UCI are already doing the recommended 10,000 steps a day,
and we
encourage them to keep up the good work. For those
who are currently more sedentary, and don’t feel comfortable doing 10,000 steps a day,
we recommend
that you work towards an
opening goal of
5 brisk walks a day for 5 minutes.
Use our easy online logging system to keep yourself focused on better health, and
we’ll reward you with incentives.
