Walking 4,000 steps on 1–2 days weekly lowers older women’s early death and heart disease risk by up to 27%.
Older women can cut their risk of early death by 26% and heart disease by 27% by walking just 4,000 steps on one or two days per week, a study in the British Journal of Sports Medicine finds.
Analyzing data from 13,547 women, average age 72, researchers discovered that daily step count mattered more than frequency, challenging the 10,000-step-a-day guideline.
Walking 5,000 to 7,000 steps daily offered further death risk reduction—up to 32%—but heart disease benefits plateaued.
Experts recommend revising guidelines to emphasize at least 4,000 steps on one or two days weekly, highlighting that any movement improves health.
