Human nature. Very funny

I always have to laugh when people find it necessary to take the elevator one floor down at the gym. This was at the Shaq 24 Hour Fitness gym the other day.

This guy was on the stationary bike for quiet a long time, I saw him there when I entered and when I was walking down the steps to leave, there he was at the elevator ready to leave. He biked for over 30 minutes and then refused to walk the one flight of steps down. Funny.

It reminds me of the people who always try to get the closest parking spot to the door when going to the gym. One other thing at the Shaq Gym is that there is an escalator going up, but none going down. And I always tend to take the escalator up rather than walk the flight of steps right next to it. We humans are strange creatures.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Sometimes when I get off the Stairmaster or Stationary bike, my legs don't respond as they should and I'm not 100% sure I can make it down the stairs without busting my arse.

Or use the elevator to stretch the legs etc after exercise, instead of breathing whatever stale / polluted air you can find in stairs.

The stairs are in open air and about 20 feet wide. No stale air there.

Probably for the same reason people have a diet pepsi with their pizza.

Give the guy a break, I sometimes use the elevator when I take my little ones to the gym and don't feel like taking them down the stairs. Maybe he was tired.
