Broken: Pedometer manual
My sister recently got this pedometer that comes with a 10,000 step guide to walking. I understand the meaning, but on first glance this could look a little overwhelming.
Darn, I guess I will have to go jump out the Window, since being first has been my lifelong goal( A little broken in that since theres only 1 floor here LOL)
Could Mark please delete these two idiot's postes? I dont know how broken this is because everyone knows there cant be a 10,000 step guide, just seems kinda weird yet funny at the same time. not broken just poorly worded
Step 1: Lift your left foot
Step 2: Extend your left foot
Step 3: Shift your weight forward and land on your left foot
Step 4: Shift your weight on to your left foot and balance on it
Step 5: Lift your right foot
Step 6: Extend your right foot
Step 7: Shift your weight forward and land on your right foot
Step 8: Lift your left foot
Step 9: ...
The mind boggles as to what would be in a guide to walking. Most people have been able to do it since they were young. What information does this guide possess that we may have previously been unaware of?
There's a program called the 10,000 step program, the idea being to walk 10,000 steps per day. This is a guide to that program. I guess if you weren't familiar with the program it could be a little confusing, but most people are buying this product to count their steps because they want to do the 10,000 steps / day.
I had a thought. . . What if "10,000 Step Program Guide" was referring how to run a program on Windows?
You're all missing the point. It is not just 10000 steps.
The actual rules are:
1. Put your left foot in.
2. Take your left foot out.
3. Put your left foot in.
4. Shake it all about.
Really guys and girls, that's what it's all about.
Ohh so Im a idiot because I got sick and tired of all these people saying first on every comment? GET A SENSE OF HUMOR DUDE!!!!... I just posted what i did because it's not all about being first or whatever...
i'm going to come up with 10,001 step guide
and make alot of money
or maybe come up with a book titled "Get off your @ss and walk"
hmmm....
srry its just no one cares. im just unhappy cause thats what happend to me wheen i posted "first". oh well.
