Abstract
Ambulation, or simply walking, contributes to a healthier life. Exercise is the first step in the management of many chronic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, and hyper lipidemia [1,2]. On a daily basis, many of us record the numbers of steps we take using a pedometer. Tracking the step count is shown to encourage more physical activity with resultant decrease in body mass index and blood pressure [3]. In the United States, the health insurance companies are now rewarding the participants in walking programs as a part of the health-contingent wellness of the Affordable Care Act [4].
