21 Houses That Make You Lose Weight

Whoa. We were extremely dubious when we saw that headline, but it's an interesting concept. These are houses that have climbing equipment instead of stairs, are situated in locations remote and perilous, or simply inspire outdoor activity.

While most of these are fantastic vacation houses, some of them are serious about maximizing the workout required to move around inside. To us this might seem to impede the flow of the home, and run counter to the idea of a relaxing space.

The Tokyo loft, above, is "based on the priciples of Reversible Destiny, which seeks to challenge the body and mind as a way to keep you on your toes." Indeed.

hmmm... i only see three houses with very minimal descriptions... it would be nice if at least SOME of these blogs would go into some detail. they are always so vage.

I agree with the above poster - where are the other 18 homes?

That being said - one of my fantasies is to have a climbing wall in my house. I can imagine the games with the kids now "Ok - the carpet is lava and you have to get down the hallway!" And we climb across the wall. Awesome.

That Tokyo loft is a bunch of accidents waiting to happen.

Maaah-velous!

These are fabulous! Thanks!

My aunt and uncle installed a climbing wall in their basement. They and their kids are quite fit! :-)

You have to wonder though, how some of them get their groceries...
