Pedometers - how do they count steps?When I take a step with my new pedometer (Omron Pro II) it always records 2 steps, e.g. my feet touch the ground five times, and it says 10 steps).
Why does it do this? Is that how they work, or is there something wrong with it? (It does
Does each foot take 5 steps ? or does each take 10 ?
it counts every step you take, so if you take 5 steps with one foot, and 5 with the other, it will count it as 10.
hope i helped
