The average age of the adults surveyed was 50.5 years, including both men and women who were at least 20 years old. The team analyzed daily step counts, age, gender, clinical history and risk of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality over 10 years. They found that participants who walked at least 8,000 steps once or twice a week were 14.9 percent less likely to die after 10 years than those who didn’t walk even one day a week.
