Daily activity audit — steps + cadence from a wearable/phone — Amherst, MA.

No honesty-limit caveat needed: confirmed directly from PubMed's own record (via NCBI eutils) that Amanda E. Paluch, first author of this standard's own citation (Paluch 2022, "Daily steps and all-cause mortality: a meta-analysis of 15 international cohorts," Lancet Public Health), is affiliated with the Department of Kinesiology and Institute for Applied Life Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Amherst, MA -- a direct, named-author-institution match sourced from the paper's own PubMed record. Distinct from the existing national (no local institution), Dallas (that city's own car-dependent incidental-walking deficit), and Boston (I-Min Lee, this standard's other named source) tiles -- Amherst is this standard's second named source's own current institution.

$200 proposed

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash: recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

7-day average daily steps + peak sustained cadence (steps/min) vs age-appropriate dose-response context, with a coached volume-then-intensity progression

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Bring

• a validated step counter (wearable or phone pedometer)
• 7 consecutive days of wear/log
• the device's cadence or steps/min readout (if available)
• a note on mobility aids / gait limitations
• PAR-Q+ or clinician clearance note for new exercisers

Steps

1. 1. Confirm the device is worn consistently for 7 full days (or logged), and note any mobility aid, injury, or gait limitation affecting the step data. Screen new exercisers with PAR-Q+; route symptoms to a clinician before adding intensity.
2. 2. Record average daily steps across the 7 days (drop obvious non-wear days and note them).
3. 3. Record peak sustained cadence (best steps/min over ~30 min) as the intensity marker; >=100 steps/min approximates moderate intensity.
4. 4. Compare average steps to the age-appropriate dose-response context (benefit rising toward ~7,000-8,000/day in older adults, higher in younger) as a trend/goal, not a prescription or diagnosis.
5. 5. Set a conservative coached progression: add ~500-1,000 steps/day increments toward the goal, then build cadence with short brisk intervals once volume is stable; respect joint/cardiac limits.
6. 6. Record the 7-day average, peak cadence, comparison, screen result, and progression plan; sign. Route any red flag to a clinician.

What counts as done

• 7 consecutive days of step data with any non-wear days noted
• Average daily steps + peak sustained cadence (steps/min) recorded
• Comparison to the age-appropriate dose-response context (trend/goal, not a diagnosis)
• Coached progression recorded (add volume first, then build cadence), with any symptom routed to a clinician

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
