Just looking for input. Will living in a home with stairs help me burn off calories? I must go up and down them 30 times a day, at least. I know I am building muscle b/c my legs have been tight and sore since we moved. Also, my new routine involves many more hours on my feet standing b/c I now use my laptop a lot and most often use it standing up. I find that I hardly ever sit down now. Can I expect to see some benefit from these changes?
I recently set up my laptop so that I can stand and use it. (I can pull over a tall stool if I get too tired). I was wondering if that helped, so I'm glad to see that it does!
With stairs, I sometimes challenge myself to go up two at a time. That is a workout!
Yes! I purposely incorporate more standing and walking into my everyday activities, and I really believe that's why I can eat more calories than I initially thought I could.
Absolutely. Despite skiving off games from the moment I realised that I could hide in the music department, I had a beautiful figure at school, as did almost everyone else. I think a lot of it was due to the fact that it was a large school where there were about 8 lessons a day, and each time you went to a different lesson, you had to climb several flights of stairs and trot along a fair bit of corridor and possibly into a different building.
