ParagardÂ® is a copper-releasing device that is placed in your uterus to prevent pregnancy for up to 10 years. Do not use ParagardÂ® if you have a pelvic infection, get infections easily or have certain cancers. Less than 1% of users get a serious infection called pelvic inflammatory disease. If you have persistent pelvic or stomach pain, or if ParagardÂ® comes out, tell your healthcare provider. If it comes out, use back-up birth control. Occasionally, ParagardÂ® may attach to or in rare cases may go through the uterine wall and may also cause other problems. In some cases, surgical removal may be necessary.
Running stairs provides an intense calorie burn, torching up to 885 calories per hour for a 130-pound person. The exercise doesn't require any special equipment or an expensive gym membership, and it helps you tone muscles throughout your lower body.
Just know that taking the stairs instead of the elevator helps you be more active during the day, which results in more total calories burned. Calorie burn depends on factors that are subjective like age, height, weight, gender, duration of activity, what type of activity, muscles engaged, intensity, etc. GOGETTERIM Posts: 3. 2/7/11 2:26 P. Does anyone know how many calories I'm burning by walking up 3 flights of stairs. I currently work on the 3rd floor of my work building and well I would like to know if its even helping me burn calories? I've been walking up and down the stairs instead of taking the elevator, I hope it helps.
