7,000 steps to km by height
Distance depends on step length, which is roughly proportional to height. This table uses the common estimate of height × 0.415 for men and height × 0.413 for women, at a normal walking pace.
| Height | Men | Women |
|---|---|---|
| 150 cm (4′11″) | 4.36 km · 2.71 mi | 4.34 km · 2.69 mi |
| 155 cm (5′1″) | 4.50 km · 2.80 mi | 4.48 km · 2.78 mi |
| 160 cm (5′3″) | 4.65 km · 2.89 mi | 4.63 km · 2.87 mi |
| 165 cm (5′5″) | 4.79 km · 2.98 mi | 4.77 km · 2.96 mi |
| 170 cm (5′7″) | 4.94 km · 3.07 mi | 4.91 km · 3.05 mi |
| 175 cm (5′9″) | 5.08 km · 3.16 mi | 5.06 km · 3.14 mi |
| 180 cm (5′11″) | 5.23 km · 3.25 mi | 5.20 km · 3.23 mi |
| 185 cm (6′1″) | 5.37 km · 3.34 mi | 5.35 km · 3.32 mi |
| 190 cm (6′3″) | 5.52 km · 3.43 mi | 5.49 km · 3.41 mi |
| 195 cm (6′5″) | 5.66 km · 3.52 mi | 5.64 km · 3.50 mi |

Calories burned walking 7,000 steps
Estimated with the ACSM walking equation for a 175 cm adult walking at about 4.8 km/h on flat ground.
| Body weight | Calories |
|---|---|
| 55 kg (121 lb) | ≈ 201 kcal |
| 65 kg (143 lb) | ≈ 238 kcal |
| 75 kg (165 lb) | ≈ 274 kcal |
| 85 kg (187 lb) | ≈ 311 kcal |
| 100 kg (220 lb) | ≈ 366 kcal |
Is 7,000 steps a good daily goal? Large studies of daily steps have found health benefits continuing to accumulate up to roughly 6,000–8,000 steps a day for older adults and 8,000–10,000 for younger adults, so 7,000 steps is a very worthwhile target.
