Take the Stairs
Doctors have proven that there are benefits to the cardiovascular system from short spurts of exercise which elevate the heart rate. So get off the elevators and escalators and take the stairs. The thighs are a large muscle group which requires a large amount of oxygen. This will cause the heart and lungs to get a real pump. You will also burn more calories, which will help you to lose weight.
