"CAN YOU BEAT 7,450 STEPS?"

Where are you right now? I thought we are in the same city. The good part when walking in Baguio City, the wind blows cool despite the hot weather.

@Shavkat Were kinda stuck here in Bataan since we visited some relatives. The plan is to just stay for a month so we can enjoy the beach.

@cherriefic I got it now. It is not cool to travel back home then. When I visited my younger sister in Imus, there are some cases about this virus. After a week, the lockdown was implemented.

It is nice to have several steps in a day. Hopefully, I can do it more after lockdown.

@Shavkat With my husband we have a walk every morning early in the morning, except in winter, when it is too cold.

Ok, I would be curious if it would work here @Shavkat

I am not going to drop the name of this mobile app. But I can earn some points and can earn extra cash with it. I can give you a personal message and perhaps you would like it.

@Shavkat is there a minimum number of steps to earn points/cash? how do you get paid?

Whoah! You really beat me with these steps of yours. Have you tried Sweatcoin? It can monitor your steps.

@DaddyEvil It is a mobile app. It was claimed that it can accumulate coins while walking and then, you can use them to have some money.

@Shavkat Yes, it is a mobile app that tracks where you walk as well as how much you walk. Apparently, it has trouble telling when you're walking, though. Part of the time it determines a fast pace as riding a bike, skating or even riding at slow speeds in a vehicle, which it won't pay you for. And you do earn "money" but it can only be spent to use as "discounts" on things sold by businesses who support the app. I looked into some of those business and the prices they charge for their products. You'd be much better off sitting on your couch and buying those same items at full price from Amazon. That's the reason I suggested the app Achievement. They actually pay you cash for the exercising/walking/jogging you do.

That's nice. You can do indoor exercise. You really can beat me. Perhaps I can buy one, too.

@maggs224 It is not a good idea to go out now. In my country, the local government asked the senior citizens and kids not to go out. Is it the same thing there, too?

@Shavkat We have had one for years but normally I like to walk outside, but being over 70 I have been on lockdown about 8 weeks now so the treadmill has been a God send to me.

I sometimes cannot approximate my footsteps every day. I used to walk every afternoon before the lockdown. Now, I tend to monitor how far I can go. The good thing about this mobile app is I can check my milestone in walking.

@LowRiderX It will be lifted tomorrow (May 15). How about there?

@Shavkat Is the lockdown still in effect there?

@Shavkat I agree. It is so risky to have a new business at present. Many things are uncertain.

@youless I think it is better to stay at home in the meantime.

I heard that it can be rented. It is not popular with this idea But I am planning to have this kind of business here in the future. It is not a good idea at present.

@Shavkat That's nice :-) I wouldn't become very rich today though, only 3800 so far. But still several rounds to go outside before it's nighttime

@Torunn With this mobile app, I can still have some pennies. I am not going to be rich. But at least, I can have something.

That's nice. I am just using a mobile app that can convert steps into coins. Then, I can redeem it if reaching the minimum payout.

Since the lockdown, I only do brisk walking if going to the market. At present, we are only allowed to go out twice a week.

It is nice that you also do it. We can able to monitor our achievements in walking.

@Shavkat yes .and it makes us feel really happy

@amitkokiladitya I am planning to have a walking session next week. Is lockdown lifted there now?

Why did you say so?

I might say that I gained weight because of this lockdown. I think I need to work out soon in the house.

@aureategloom Since I got a "Worker Pass," I will have a walking marathon to pay our water bill today.

@Shavkat good luck with that!!

For me, I am trying to use a mobile app that can earn while walking.I am also aiming to keep fit.

I hope you can have the chance to do it. Perhaps if the lockdown is lifted, then you can walk around the garden at your place.

@Kathze I think you need to be careful there. I had seen some Asians were beaten up. They thought that Filipinos are Chinese.

@Shavkat That is the problem of Filipino's here. Because if we are going for a walk local people are calling us "chinwa" they thought we are chinese and specially when this corona virus starts. It's annoying though. Sad to say we don't have garden too.

Thank you for your concern. I came back home safe and sound. Perhaps I can hit 10,000 if I drop by in the park, but I cannot do it due to the lockdown.
