Stairway To Weight-Loss Heaven

And we're not talking a million flights - just two minutes of stair-climbing five days a week burns the same amount of energy as a 20-minute walk - 100-140 calories. Got more than two minutes? Try 20 on the stair climber at the gym. You'll burn around 200 calories at a moderate speed.
Those who eschew the elevator are healthier, too - stair climbers have lower cholesterol, blood pressure and body fat than those who take the elevator. So the next time you have a choice, pass through that door beside the elevator.
