Setting Your Stride Length

This short guide will help you determine your stride length and how to set it in your BV Medical Pocket Pedometer.

• Walk 10 steps with your normal stride.
• Measure the distance from start to end.
• Calculate your stride by dividing the total distance by 10. 

Example: 
Total Distance is 150 inches. Therefore, stride = 150 / 10 paces = 15 inches
Total Distance is 381 centimeters. Therefore, stride = 381 / 10 paces = 38 centimeters

Note: 
Stride Setting Range

• Metric: Range from 30 to 213 cm: with setting at 1 cm interval
• Imperial: Range from 12 to 84 in: with setting at 1 in interval
• Default Stride: 30 inch / 80 cm
