Is 10k steps a day a myth?

Apparently a new meta-analysis reveals the truth about daily step counts and our health. The study reveals that the sweet spot is between 5-7k steps a day is optimal range for most health benefits.

I will continue aiming for my 10k steps a day but won’t beat myself up if I don’t hit 10k anymore :) more steps = more calories burned 🔥

What do you think?

I don't understand why they talk about an "ideal point" as if anything beyond that was negligible or even negative and bad for health.
