Climb some stairs instead of the lift or escalator.

It is hard to stay active when sitting in the office all day. Why not make use of the training tools you have around you: STAIRS! There might be some on the way to work in your office building or at home.

Say no to elevators and escalators. Climbing stairs is a great training. It uses a range of muscle groups in your body. New studies show that the aerobic trainings effect of climbing stairs can be similar to cycling or running. Your heart rate can be raised up to 90%. So don’t go too crazy. Anyhow, climbing stairs is a good workout with any intensity.

There are certainly a lot of stairs in Brisbane!
