According to these studies, a person should at least maintain a pace of two miles per hour for a long life. Though the standard is 10,000 steps per day, 8,000 steps can suffice for a healthy lifestyle. Maintaining longevity has always been the goal for the 76-year-old because, with growing age, he cannot keep up with his old routine.
