The "Take The Stairs" Way to Failure
So, to continue my last post, I truly feel that the find ways to exercise through "everyday" activities is hurting most people.
You see, because of the state of obesity in the United States especially, many leaders just want people to do SOMETHING. Therefore, they tell people that you can get in shape and improve your health by increasing your activity level while doing mundane tasks.
But let's be serious, do we really think that walking up the stairs everyday instead of taking the elevator will improve our fitness level THAT much. Really, you might take the stairs two times per day for a grand total of 5 minutes walking the stairs.
And, most people would be laboring up the stairs anyway all the while, telling themselves that they are taking the stairs instead of the elevator and their fitness levels are improving because of it.
Do you really think that?
From what the research tells us, most people need to raise their metabolism in order to lose fat without crash dieting.
Two ways to increase your metabolism: weight training... interval training
Everything in life that is worthwhile takes a little W-O-R-K... including health and fitness. Don't shortchange yourself by thinking otherwise.
