For me to do 10000 I need to walk about 5 miles. Make sure it's in a position to register the rolling of your hip as you walk - you will move diffently on different surfaces so checking you've got it right is important. If it's too high or too low it won't register properly as it won't pick up the right movement. Try zeroing it and walking normally whilst counting your steps to check that it's in the right place. Some pedometers don't count single steps - if you step from sink to cooker and it's only one step then you stop it won't count but if you walk 6 or 7 steps to the back door it will. Mine works this way. If I spend the whole day at home just doing housework I doubt I'd register much more than 1500 steps - it might feel like I'm moving a lot but in reality it's only a few steps from one side of the house to the other.
