Stride Length Measurement. Measure your stride length before setting the pedometer: 1. Walk 10 steps with your normal stride as illustrated below. 2. Measure the distance from START to END in inches. 3. Calculate your stride length by dividing the total distance by 10. Example:
For a pedometer to measure distance you first must enter your average step length. Step length is the distance covered in an average step, either from heel to heel or toe to toe (see picture below). Your step length is required for most pedometers so they can calculate Kilometers / Miles walked. Your pedometer does this by multiplying your step length by steps walked. Example: If your step length is 70 cm and your pedometer has recorded 5,000 steps The distance calculation is 0.7 (70 cm) x 5000 (steps) = 3500 (meters) / 1000 (meter in a Km) = 3.5 km.
