Double-stepping stairs, is it enough?

[zooting22]

i have recently decided to lose weight. i weigh 180 pounds, yeah i know im abit towards the heavy side so i think that when walking stairs if i skip a step and climb stairs 2 at a time i will lose weight!

since i go downstairs for a snack every like half an hour and then come back up to play XBOX LIVE, i guess if I would skip a step to make me feel more force on my legs (there are 14 steps in my stairway, plus the carpet and mat). if i lose 1 pound like this every 2 days imagine how i will be in a year!

Just stop playing Xbox so much and eating so much shit. That'll do.

Don't mean to break it to you, but double stepping stairs isn't going to do a damn thing.

You mean there are people who don't double step stairs? Maybe as someone with fairly long legs I am somewhat biased, but I can't really imagine someone actually stepping up each little stair every time they want to traverse the stairway. That would be like someone riding a bike with their ass on the seat the entire time. Or someone actually exercising on the equipment at the park. You know what I mean?

OK then, what if i were to do 3 step? or cross over 2-3-2-3?

By that logic you should just leap across the fucking thing.

Just do whatever it is you do everyday but smoke meth. You'll shed pounds of fat!

After consistently following my routine I have noticed a 2.5 pound gain. After analyzing my situation, I now think that the weight gain was due to the changes in gravity that follow me going up and down the stairwell throughout the day. I have assessed this situation, by purchasing a mini-fridge, which I now keep next to the couch. I will refill this with snacks on a daily basis, so as to avoid the gravitational changes to my weight caused the going up and down all day long. I'll post results next week.

Sounds like a sound plan.
