Fitness seems to be all the rage these days, but making fitness fun is not always apparent. Children have an almost innate sense of building fun into their daily routines, but somehow this natural sense of ha ha seems to disappear when we grow up.
Enter a new thought about enticing adults to choose a healthier way. We often hear encouragements to 'take the stairs instead of the elevator' but breaking old habits and introducing new ones takes a bit of work, except in cases where curiosity and a hidden sense of fun are tempted to take over.
Leave it to the Swedes to find a way. They tunred a staircase, leading from street level into a subway, into a walk-on piano, and the results were surprisingly effective. Would that we could all come up with such ingenious and delightful ways to build fitness into our everyday lives.
