Whether you want to stay fit or lose weight, daily physical activity is of the utmost importance. Those who lead a sedentary life with minimum exercise are at an increased risk of obesity, diabetes, and heart diseases, among other health issues. Exercising regularly is necessary, but a lot of people find choosing an activity and making time for it difficult.
Most types of exercises and sports require equipment, whether it’s getting a tennis racquet or running shoes. Of course, you could join a gym, but that would require dedication, motivation and getting a good trainer. And while all these activities might not seem like your cup of tea, there’s one type of exercise that is highly beneficial and requires you to do very little – climbing stairs.
