We can find the staircase in every building, which is common for out daily life and even for our cardiovascular health but we usually look for some advanced gym equipment's and wide park for that. New Study from Tulane University shows that including stair climbing in our daily routines can greatly reduce the risk of heart diseases by as much as 20 percent compared to taking thousands of steps a day. Beyond a Simple Exercise In fact, climbing stairs is not an insipid activity. It’s a combination
Of course taking the stairs is better than walking. But hopefully, linking it to a healthier heart might tempt more people to take the stairs instead of the elevator.
I see too many people at work taking an elevator for what amounts to just one or two flights of stairs. It’s most likely just laziness and force of habit. Creating some awareness that taking the stairs is an easy and effective way to fight heart disease is not a bad thing.
Even if it sounds obvious to most of us :)
When I'm in the office I always take the stairs even if it's on the fourth floor.
It simply feels good, it's like you've achieved a small goal even before you start your work day. And it carries over for the rest of the day.
And of course going home, I also take the stairs, because why not.
I take care to walk up the stairs slowly if possible, so as not to overly stress my knees.
I have stair climbing as part of my exercise routine at work, it’s just something easy I can fit into my workday that hopefully counteracts the unhealthiness of just sitting in an office chair all day. I work on the 4th floor and take the stairs everytime, but I’ll add on multiple laps whenever I need to go up. I’ve been doing it for years, but I’m still worn out and a sweaty mess after 3 laps up and down. It takes a bit of discipline to stick to, but the hardest thing is just getting a routine established, start small and just do something repeatable, then build up from there.
