Guide Review - Walk4Life Pedometer W4L Elite

The Walk4Life W4L Elite pedometer in an excellent multi-function pedometer. Find your stride length and weight to set it up to calculate distance and calories burned, and enter your local time. Then just clip it to you waist and you are off. It has one of the most secure clips I have ever used, it never seems to pop off, but just in case it comes with a security strap, too. It has a time-of-day function so you don't need a watch. As you walk, it records steps and calculates distance, calories, and walking time, which you can see by pressing the Mode button. When you wish, press the delayed reset button to reset it to zero. The only thing this lacks to be perfect is a memory mode to store past walking sessions.

Walk4Life Pedometer, Member Benavalos

The Walk4Life Pedometer is an easy to use and accurate pedometer. I have used mine daily for many years. The ""activity time"" function allows me to see how much time I spend moving during the day. I love the large display! My eyes have gone down hill since I hit 50! I highly recommend this pedometer to everyone who is serious about tracking their steps and activity time. The company is great! Very attentive to any questions or problems with pedometer.
