As a frequent gym-goer, I find myself staring at those sweaty souls who brave the stair master in admiration, respect, and in sheer bewilderment. I for one have no tolerance for mindless climbing, especially when a machine is setting my pace. Although I absolutely hate the burning sensations stairs have on my legs, I pleasantly enjoy the thrilling sensation they have on my eyes. Somewhere along the course of my life I became a sucker for irony - my love of staircases and hatred towards stairs is just a day in the life around here. Typical.

Guaranteed if the stairs at the gym were this interesting, my buns and thighs would be unstoppable.

Couple a fun-loving stairwell with some heavily stacked book shelves, and you may literally steal my heart.

Anyone know where I can order this last shelving unit?
