Ancient Nubia occupied the territory beyond, or upriver, the first cataract while Ancient Egypt occupied the lands below, or downriver, of the first cataract. Historians have come to divide Nubia itself into sub regions with Lower Nubia comprising the lands between the first and second cataract and Upper Nubia being the regions beyond the second cataract.
How You Burn Calories. Your weight x distance = energy used walking. Time does not matter as much as distance. If you speed up to walking a mile in 13 minutes or less, you will be burning more calories per mile. But for most beginning walkers, it is best to increase the distance before working on speed. A simple rule of thumb is 100 calories per mile for a 180 pound person.
Each 2,000-2,500 steps is about a mile. Walking a mile burns about 80 calories for a 150-pound person. Bottom Line: Depending on your weight, walking 10,000 steps burns between 250 and 600 calories. Most weight loss programs recommend burning 200-300 calories per day in moderate to vigorous exercise. If you walk 10,000 steps per day with 3000 of those steps at a brisk walking to jogging pace, you should be burning enough calories.
