My parents lead very inactive lifestyles. My grandfather passed away due to stroke recently and I don't want the same thing happening to my parents. I intend to buy pedometers for my parents together with my brother.

Can any of you recommend the various brands of pedometer so I can like check them up? Thanks!

Sorry, Oxylogic, I don't know, but walking is a great exercise.

The lady that babysat for my 75 year-old mother walked for exercise until she died in her 90's.

Oxyologic-

Good job. I'm in the process of trying to convince my parents to do some walking also. My aunt walks for an hour every morning and is in phenominal shape. I know if my parents put their mind to it, they could exercise too.

Having said that, try this website. They have only the best quality heart rate monitors and pedometers: http://heartmonitors.com/pedometers/index.htm

Let me know how it goes.
