Use the stairs not the elevator

Hey everyone,


So I want to post a simple article today on why you should use the stairs and not the elevator. This picture is taken from the website slideshare but i will post the exact source at the bottom. I wanted to stress to everyone as the summer months approach the importance of carbs, eating the proper amounts of all your nutrients and not starving yourself. Their are simple ways to burn extra calories each day. Do enough of them each day and it will add up.


Think of calorie burning as a long term process. If you burn 50 extra calories a day for example dont think about it for this weeks weight loss. Think about it for the year. 365 days in a year thats 18,250 extra calories this year that you will burn. Thats about 5 1/2 pounds that you will loose this year. Most people dont understand how large 5 pounds of pure fat is. IT IS QUITE LARGE! Their is a difference between weight loss and fat loss. Fat loss is just as significant as weight loss but probably twice as satisfying to the eyes. Each pound of muscle you gain adds to your metabolism and the more fat you loose the same concept persists. So the more you gain in muscle and the more you loose in fat quantities the happier you will be. One it will mask the fat on your body even more, and two it will make the rest of the weight loss that much easier because your metabolism is higher.

Back to the point here are some reasons to use the stairs rather then the elevator. Also the stairs can add up amount calories you burn a lot faster then you think. Heres the article!

Thanks
