Walking Works For Women

Here's a neat study that shows how accumulated walking throughout the day is a key for women in maintaining their weight.  Average steps per day was inversely correlated with all the major body composition variables, such as percent body fat, waist-to-hip ratio, etc.  As far as a threshold, women who averaged over 10,000 steps a day were in the normal weight range.
