Tip 44: Take the stairs!

When did we become so reliant on elevators? They used to only be used by the physically handicapped, injured, or people carrying very heavy things. So when did the average person decide to skip the stairs, day after day, in favor of the elevator?

I know I am guilty of it. I take the elevator in most normal situations, or the escalator. Why? I think it's because the stairs are "out of the way" and the elevators are front and center, and labeled with large signs.

Ever since I started my weight-loss journey, I have been making an effort to take the stairs as often as possible. It gets my heart pumping throughout the day, and is a calorie-torching way to tone my legs! haha
