up

UP!

Up.

Up. When you walk downstairs, the force of gravity goes the same way as you do, therefore you use up much less energy. When you go upstairs, you need energy to overcome force of gravity, and also need more energy to raise your body. So UP of course!

walking up stairs because u have 2 pull ur body up with force and when going gravity pushes u down.

Up because you use your thigh muscles more.

Upstairs as it hurts the most.
