We were away in a bungalow two weeks ago. On returning home the stairs were a real effort when not usually any problem.

I looked up 'bungalow legs' as I've always lived in a one-storey house & wondered if it might be what's happening to me now I no longer have to use stairs at work.
Answer - it may well be.

This article, tho, has helpful ideas how to keep muscles from losing too much strength without having to seek out stairs to run up & down!
