It showed that for children aged 6 through 12 years, girls needed 12,000 steps per day and boys needed 15,000 steps per day to stay in a healthy Body Mass Index (BMI). The study was published in the June 2004 “Preventative Medicine” by Catrine Tudor-Locke.The goal of the pedometer fitness challenge is to work as a group to simulate walking from the Mall of America in Minnesota to Disney World in Florida. The group will need to take about 3,290,000 steps to get from Minnesota to Florida.

Some PE departments may have funds for these or companies may be willing to make a donation for a healthy school initiative, or teachers can have students count steps. This lesson starts with a simple demonstration of how pedometers.Children.
Since the much touted 10,000 steps a day refers to adults, you should ensure that your child takes even more to stay physically fit. This may seem like a large number of steps, but school-age children are full of energy and can easily reach this goal. Instead of sitting and watching a television show or playing a video game, purchase a pedometer for your child and challenge him to reach his.

Walking clubs had sprung up in the country, and a company there began making a pedometer it called Manpo-kei, which means “10,000 steps meter.” So while the 10,000 step goal is a good one, it was picked partly because it made for a catchy name.Why Choose iGANK PD301 Pedometers: The Simplest way to track your steps accurately!

Hi Vince, Firstly thanks for the shoutout at the end. I appreciate that. I enjoyed watching you repair this. Quite an interesting mechanism that looks simple enough but then still got you stumped in places. The click springs even I didnt work out at first but then it became clear. As for calibrating something like that from the factory I doubt they did. Back before 89 we had no GPS etc so you would almost blindly believe what it was saying. It can never be accurate due to your stride and torraine you are on. I also think that to be more accurate the mechanism would have to be better made than what was in that. A fun thing though and it got you out of the house mate! if we were still on proper lockdown you would have only been allowed out once a day so that would have been hilarious to see how long it took….
I absolutely loved this video, the beat part was at the end when your vegan shirt popped up.����
The spring had a screw on it, so it’s meant to be adjusted I reckon, but exactly how to measure I’m really unsure.
My pedometer scouts local paedophiles so I don’t have to compete with anyone for sweet, sweet 12 year old ass… Why the fuck would I use it to count my steps!?
Great pedometer demonstration. I love my JoyWalker pedometer and this video does a great job helping people to set up their pedometers. The average American is fat and stagnant and we need to start more pedometer programs to get us moving!
# I’m looking for a good pedometer so I hope this is a good fit for me! Thank you so much for this video.
# the greatest product I have ever seen. So, I don’t have any problem in counting my steps I make during my morning exercises
Vince: It’s just gonna need a clean.
Me: Nope, 50mins left in the video
I would expect the pendulum should be in the middle of it’s range when the things is in hanging still in vertical position. I think that’s how they adjust it in the factory. It’s a bit like the pendulum of a clock in the middle when it’s in rest.
Thank you so much for sharing this video I really like this its a very innovative device. I think its easy to operate this device and portable also. I will definitely try this device.
Use the Wii fit!! Awesome!! There is a running in place game so fun!! It keeps track of your miles and time!! And the characters wave at you when you run by them!! Oh ya you follow a dog.!! By the way I’m 60!!
I wish I wasn’t dead inside and got this excited when I find out how something works! ��. Love the videos Vince, thank you for your time and dedication.
LOVE IT! LOL! Secretly, my favorite indoor “get your steps in” activity is doing one of Jane Fonda’s walking video’s on YouTube!!! haha! Great for low impact exercise and allows for a lot of steps in a short amount of time! #lovejanefonda #noapologies
Is pedometer better than wrist, smart watch with pedometer. Since pedometer is to be fitted to hip, influencing accuracy? Wrist band pedometer is on wrist?…..how accurate? Can itbe used for measure golf shot, walking per say 154m to ball……?…how accurate?..to within a meter?
It’s the weekend. I’ve got the AC on, and a cold beer in my hand. Time to tune in to another Vince adventure and chillax.
My daughter works at Screw fix. She asked her boss if they sell spirit level bubbles ��I didn’t think she would fall for it ��
I found this website. http://alanwatch.homestead.com/germanwristmiles.html
Check it out. It has a pedometer almost like yours.
very good video and good subject of Pedometer for Walking thanx!
Excellent video! I bought, at the Goodwill Thrift Store, an indoor bicycle for $12. I use it every day—like when I watch you and the Bostons!
Thanks! Extremely helpful. My pedometer read 100 when I took 100 steps. Thanks so much! ��������������
enjoyed this one vince there is something magical about old simple mecanical devices.
Hi vince great video just wondering when you stripped it down i noticed that the gears had holes in them and they
Should they all be aligned together?
Mike
The first stain on the 14 was from IPA and disappeared after evaporating. But the second stain came from the oil you put on the peg at 20:50…
What’s the song that plays during the sped up parts? (ex. 20:44), I really like it.
The Fitbit won’t be using steps to work out distance, it’ll be using the GPS. And that will be more accurate:)
I know the point of this video but I had to laugh out loud when you walked past the treadmill! LOL
i am from germany and can say, most of the things made here…are pure crap or overpriced for the quality… sadly all made after the 80th that way
If you want German precision, get a vintage Normatest AVOmeter, not only does all the usual ohms, farad’s volts etc but if you have the probes for it also does sound, vibration and temps too. My Cropico (Croydon Precision Instruments) Normatest II is the darling of all my tools as it was assembled in the factory almost next door to the hospital I was born in, made also in the month and year I was born too and as a AVO meter it is incredibly good despite being over 50 years old. The second darling of my stuff is my Everard bridge megger, ex GPO 110v model in beautiful burgundy bakelite and fully functional and I use it to find shorts in my car or scooter as ideal for 12v applications and it works superbly as you measure the reading and then measure along the line and usually within a centimetre or so is the short. The other worthy ancient thing of note which looks a lot like your meter there, is my French 1903 voltmeter which has a paper dial too and despite it being fairly ancient still works well on up to 10v, see old doesn’t mean useless in my book:D
Good idea to go back to basics, I am always getting notifications every time i use my phone to run and this could be a nice alternative to it. #pedometer
Williams Mercedes had the same colour when there were sponsored by martini great livery
My husband makes fun of me when I pace around my house for those steps! �� But hey, whatever works!
Jessica smith has good walking videos on YouTube here as well!! ❤
That was really informative thank you I never thought of doing steps those ways so great for the winter or when it’s too hot outdoors!
“There we have it, I am happy with that” ( 40:00 minute mark).
Video length 1:03:18
Waiting to see what went wrong, so I can enjoy another 20 minutes of fixing:)
The clip is that way so you can clip it to your belt as you’re supposed to wear on hip for proper reading
I thought a pedometer was an electronic device used for detecting child predators.
That’s a very #useful #pedometer there. It’s very practical too.
fuh i thought it was PEDO meter. lmfao i have been watching to much tv.
That’s a great idea, I have to do a video of getting my 10K steps in the house because some days you just don’t want to go out ( Rain & Cold). It is easy to get out and walk and get you steps in 1hr and 30min and I’m done. Peace & Love
I’m not sure if it worked with any real consistency when new or bought, however it is quite cheaply made, relatively, it doesnt seem to have the accuracy and quality of parts of even a kock-off chinese watch from the era, quite large pieces and a paper face, probably low quality steel aswell, so im not so sure, it doesnt even have well fitted parts, as there isnt really a way to guarantee that spring wont move around, it isnt guided in any channel, its just resting against the middle of the gear, and depending on the worker who assembled each, may not have lined it up properly from the factory, i think Germany does and has made quality products, this does not seem like one of them
44:20
You have to use a lower viscosity oil to prevent it from being a cause of friction.
I used to do it to my yo yo so it would spin longer.
Just want to apologize to you Vince because I found myself yelling at you about the spring on your first attempt at putting it back together
Lovely! I really like how it’s all metal gears. The only plastic parts are the back and probably the lens. I’d use that rather than a fit bit. Look at how it made You do sports more already! lol I think by the looks of it, it’s from the 70’s. It was a more casual time back then and noone needed 100% accuracy for things like sports. “Being in the right ballpark” was already enough. Better times lol This has way more charming than a fitbit:D
If you use a tablet or phone to take pics as you go along you don’t need to watch the video to remember how to put it together.
Another way is to play with pets/siblings. My younger brother who is 4 loves for me to chase him around the house. ��
Thank-you this made me laugh, I do the exact same thing and act like a ding dong. Glad to know I’m not the only one. P.S. Loved the dance moves:)
Total Gym has a little bouncy attachment….steps def could be tracked. What about Leslie Sansone where she does low-impact walking in place? Also…sitting on a physio ball & bouncing up/down gets the HR up….I did that when I was rehabbing my knee. And touching knee to hand would count as a step.
While I get this is supposed to be a fix it video, I do hope in the future you show us more of uk scenery. It looks really nice out there:-)
Um, I just want to ask, can we call someone who is obsessed with pedometers, a “pedophile”?
Just dance is a great exercise if you don’t have equipment or a lot of space! It’s a good investment for the game and system because it’s a fun thing you can do with friends too, I mean how fun is a treadmill with friends?! Lol
Sparkpeople has some great chair workouts and indoor exercises. I used their videos and Walk Away the Pounds for a few years.
I twatted a peado last week. He was.6 of a meter away from me….. I doubt you will fix him.
I don’t know why but this guys videoes are really entertaining
If you really want to compare, I would use Google Fit with GPS to track the distance. Pedometers are really inaccurate overall; including the FitBit, which I think is only using an accelerometer to measure the steps; I don’t think the FitBit has GPS (although I could be wrong).
Hi Vince awesome video again but could you tell what music you were playing please?��
Can you fix my wife she has a issue with her mouth. Can’t stop yapping. ������ Love the videos.
����
no video passes by without isopropyl alcohol. It’s great for cleaning electronics and removing glue.
An excellent #pedometer, #step counter, #step tracker. Smallest one with unique design.its very useful
Rebounding is a great way to get steps in and break a sweat. I’ve gotten 2k steps in 15 minutes Plus it’s fun!
does it comes as in the form of band, or does need somthing with in the form of nano and allow to experience the day of walk, week and month target of walk how much distance u cover and that should not affect radiations as cell phone we alerady fed up with that so does u have anything else
I find that I get a ton of steps in just walking in place while watching tv. As long as you move your arms, they’ll register. And you can walk faster than you do around the house with all the obstacles. Also, if you put in some music, you’ll rack them up. I can get about 2,000 in 15 minutes!
Fuck! They got me… The Pedometer surely will recognize my fetish for little girls!
Hey Jeannine! I love your videos. How are you doing? I hope, you are well. Looking forward to the next video. ������

The Fitbit is not as accurate as one might imagine. People have run the London Marathon wearing one and it’s told them they’ve done 32 miles! https://wearablezone.com/news/how-accurate-is-fitbit
I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family #PedometerforWalking #GoodQuality #StepCounter
I got a Fitbit so I wouldn’t have to do all that calculating lol
I think that’s about as accurate as these things ever were. A simple mechanical device that just measures up/down movements is never going to be anything more than an estimate when it comes to measuring walking distance. Even simple digital pedometers aren’t 100% accurate, it’s more like 80-90% judging by the difference in distance and step count measured by different apps and devices on the same walk. That’s why most of the activity tracking apps on phones use GPS location.
Thats really good, when make excersice its the best! smallest!:D
Those pedometers were made in a time where no one really cared how many miles you walked EXACTLY. Distance in vintage times was as important as the rocks placed next to the road. So the result is: they were more a rough estimation. The calibration was dead simple: choose one of the settings, e.g. 30 inches, calculate how many steps fit into one mile this way, bump device that many times. Look at the result and adjust the spring accordingly. You need to remember: Springs change their properties in time, so after 6 decades it ist most likely unprecise as a throw with a stone.
According to your electronic watch, 1 step corresponds with 28 inches (you can calculated that).
i used this app for android, and i think it’s the best one ever: http://www.mediafire.com/file/xzy3838nwwxjl8z/Pedometer_app.apk
I thought it was a Pe-Doh-meater. That’s how you pronounce a pedometer that detects pedophiles.
YT comments: Hey Vince, can you walk me through setting-
Vince: NOO!!
Awesome product #pedometer to look out for. very interesting features.
#wow this is just amazing device to keep track of our calories..
very good video and good subject of Pedometer for Walking thanx!
Really like watching tech related to fitness. Subscribed… #pedometerwatch
Your videos are so creative! I’ve started following just dance videos on youtube when I can’t go outdoors, and it is surprising how many steps you can get out of those 4 min routines.:-)
Thank you so much for this information about Smallest Pedometer…Thanks for sharing…��
I think most people thought it was a device for tracking pedophiles… I WAS ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE-
Hi Vince, I don’t think it’s the case in this instance but you’ll often find early watch plexi-glasses yellow through age as they’re made of spun nitrocellulose. This means cleaning up with polywatch won’t do anything. You see it on lots of old pocket watches sometimes it’s bad enough people think the dial is actually yellow! Great video as usual ��
I probably should find out what the word pedo means in this context… (Investigation music) Ok the Japanese term “manpo-kei” would probably be better in western countries. (Investigation music intensifies) Ohhhh from the latin Pedis meaning foot. Why couldnt they call it a pedismeter instead?! (*Investigation music intensifies*) Oh damn they actually used the term pedometre before the term pedo was used for a pedophile. Because back then they didnt know much about psychology or care about kids or whatever. (*INVESTIGATION MUSIC CLIMAX*) Nah, that was about it really. Still, I wasted 15 minutes and learned nothing useful. Good times.
Good idea for detecting the lone peado. The law tags them and we can find them with a peadometer
What a lovely bit of kit! I didn’t realise they made Pedometers that long ago, but then I also had a thought today about how did light meters work in cricket all those years ago, simple questions, bound to be simple answers! Great video Vince, and boy, have you earned that chocolate lol! ��
I just realized tonight that my pedometer only registers every other step. I’ve probably had this thing for 25 years… and never realized it. It’s hooked to my waist band on one hip…. Now what?!!? Do I get them back, or… OMG.
I don’t think Fitbits are all that accurate. “Fitbit’s accuracy for distance travelled was not as impressive. In general, Fitbit output did not match treadmill output, but this effect was also dependent on speed. One study found that the faster the walking speed, the greater the error for the distance measure. This may be in part due to the fact that unless you specify a stride length in your Fitbit account, Fitbit picks a default for you based on your height.” https://berkeleysciencereview.com/2014/10/fit-fitbit/
So many jokes, but I dont want to lower the tone of the comments on this channel.
Vince as much as I like your videos, they are far far to long and you talk forever. Will there ever be a video where you simply just do a short brief regarding what your going to try and fix and then attempt to fix it.
Im sure others have noticed this also
0:44 Cayman Islands Dollar? What’s next? The Bangladeshi Taka?! ��
Jokes aside, it’s a nice little tidbit of info there with the currency rates haha.
Welp.. this device may cause some alarm for many upper echelon group of USA.
You’re A blessing and a hoot. I don’t need to do all those every day but you got me thinking of ways to get creative. Where is your rebounder from? I had to leave mine when we moved.
Brass is soft shouldn’t need much oil if any. Enjoyable video
So I can’t take it into the shower and walk 1000 steps by washing my hair?
Hey Vince the fingers as you call them. Is a simple ratchet. The wheel the ratchet is pressing against has got milling around the edge.
I have one of those parameters to they’re not that accurate or more of a guide for hiking so you know how far you went in. And you have a rough idea how far it is back home. As for the 14 sometimes you just Gotta let it go just like dropping your keys in Volcano just let it go.
Thats cool. I like the basketball one cuz I play basketball. BTW, I luv how u review things.
wonderful technology. really worth for everyone. thanks for sharing a wonderful video
Really enjoyed this seems some good ideas. Loved your dancing! My dog thinks I’m crazy running up and down the hall
Pedometer is a divice similarly the possometer except the length of the pase person caring it registrar the total distance coverd by any nomber of pases
Fitbit is known for overestimating the steps so you probably could have left it a sit was towards the end of the video
I’m just doing this with my phone because I don’t have a fitbit.
This is a very smart device, it looks very easy and comfortable to use
Hahaha pedo means fart in Spanish. So it would be fartometer lol.
A man with 2 pedometers never knows how many steps he’s taken…
Brasso and silver brasso are great for scratched CD and DVDs as well. Just a tip.:)
Thx for the laugh! Great job! Luv my mini trampoline. Great for lymphatics ��♀️
I’ve picked up a lovely watch project, a Pulsar V600 which I consider just about the most advanced watch I have heard of as you use the bezel as a rotary switch and the work is done on the small subdial and the main hands. Has a dancing hands function, stopwatch, countdown timer, alarms, dual time zones and has been suggested to me NASA used one in a space trip but can’t verify that. My one is gold plated with a daytona yellow dial and looking forward to getting this rarity fixed:)
Clearly you never owned a BMW… But let’s not go there…
I think you did a fine job. these things were never hyper-accurate…. They were never precision instruments….
Now, walking on a sidewalk, or a golf course, it might be reasonably accurate…. when I say reasonably, I mean, within 10%… So at the end, you were within 10%….
Walking out in a rough field, your steps will be uneven, the terrain varies, the distance of your steps varies…. That’s just not helpful….
Once again, I was yelling at my screen… I wonder when he’s going to realize there is an adjuster on the back?!?!?!? Heh heh!
As usual, you got there in the end…. Like I say, these were never precision instruments. Bottom line is, you did the best you could with it. I will say, it was very interesting, to see how it works… And once you see it, I felt like, yeah, this thing is going to be ballpark accuracy at best… It’s really not “measuring” anything….
I’ve been walking an hour per day, most days, for years in my home. Before that, I would walk back and forth in the driveway, which probably made my neighbors think I had an OCD diagnosis. I put music on while I’m walking, or talk to a friend on the phone while walking or just walk in the quiet. So, I really enjoyed your video. I got such kick out of your dog following you, especially up and down the stairs. I imagined him asking, “Where are we going?” “Are we going ANYWHERE?”
We had a bull mastiff, Sadie, who insisted on doing yoga with me (she was particularly good at up and down dog) and when I would sit to meditate in lotus she would deposit herself on my lap.
Thank you for your video!
#ditchthedeadweight well at least it makes running have less of a distraction. no phone hitting my leg while its my pocket and no more people bothering me while i run shooting messages
Try walking away the pounds by Sharon Mann she has 15 min walking exercises. It’s a great way to get steps.
For the yellow you can do a retrobright treatment i used it a lot of time and it dosn’t affect the paint but i don’t use it on a acrylic glass and i don’t know the result on a transparent one. When i do this on a game boy classic it dosn’t affect the screen i think it’s same whith this screen
I would say it was never that accurate to begin with and the adjustment would be done with the slide on the back and it would also take the average of all steps because sometimes it will miss a step or one step may be larger than the next.
I imagine you got a room full of all the stuff you fixed where you walk around with a sense of smug satisfaction looking at stuff thinking…I fixed that
Hi,USA friend,we have a pedometer need to social review, if you can help me,please email me: lixueyandelove@ 126.com
I have never assumed that any pedometer is accurate. even a modern device that I have tried, I count a bunch of steps and then look at the device and it is wrong.
I love this:) it’s so cold in London right now so I will be doing this ��

Vince its pretty easy to find the right Spot for this spring. Look back to your video U can exactly See that the end of the spring lines up perfectly with this metal square at the case. I Hope U / someone know what i mean:)
Just came across this video. Just what I needed to help keep my step count up in this Coronavirus Crisis!
Not related to this video, more of a general comment. Been watching you for a long time Vince. Thanks to your videos I finally plucked up the courage to take apart my Technics amplifier and fix the dry solder joints on 4 of the inputs. I’m now annoying my neighbours by listening to The Clash through one of the previously broken inputs! Vince I thank you for making me believe I could pick up the soldering iron and fix something… Although my neighbours probably don’t!:D
Thanks for the information. A very useful product it seems. Hope to see more.
16:40 ofc it’s just paper dial… They would not waste money on “ceramic” or any type of emailed dial when it’s behind unopenable “glass” (also the details would be less perfect if it were anything but paper with these colors).
Digital? Every idiot can count to one.
I dont remember who said that
You have inspired me to use my re yonder again. I don’t have a working Fitbit but just knowing you can get about a thousand stamps dancing on the rebounder I can do that a few times a day!
Nothing against you but your dogs were my favorite part.�� Cracks me up when they’re on the trampoline or treadmill with you.������
That thing converts a bump into a distance. It is inherently inaccurate. Your steps are not exact and walking over uneven ground can cause multiple incrementing or to not register steps at all.
You looked like a Sims character when you were dancing xD I was cracking up!
Sometimes I do a youtube of walk away the pounds during a tv show (yes the laptop is next to the tv LOL) and that gets a few thousand steps in and makes me out of breath.
That was really fun to watch! Looks like you had a fun day getting your movement in!
Oh my gosh you look so thin! Are you going to do a weigh in sometimes? Do you still eat the potato diet or potato-ish? Well done for your footsteps, it’s so easy to stay motivated with these cold temperatures but we will win this! 😉
Fun ideas! Thanks for the motivation. You are looking so good!
