      8 SECONDS FOR EVERY 2 STEPS CLIMBED? Did Korea just discover the secret of immortality and it’s to keep climbing stairs?

        Its possible to climb 4 steps at once

        Assuming you can do it in a second and that the way back down takes the same amount of time, you can increase your life by 8 seconds per second

        If you do this for 20 years continuously, you could live to over 160 years old

          Just spend 3 hours a day climbing stairs and you live 1 more day. Ez. Doctors hate this one simple trick.

    I think it’s a good nudge tbh. Stairs are proven again and again to be an incredibly healthy workout given that you don’t have issues with your knees.

    I just came back from Japan and 20k steps a day and hundreds of stairs for a month really put me in shape and made me realize how important good shoes are lol

      I think stairs on the way up is good for health and fine for knees, stairs on the way down doesn’t do as much for health and hurts my knees if I do too much.
