Got stairs?
Try this routine:
Warm up for 5 minutes, jumping jacks, jump rope, etc.
Walk down a long flight of steps, turn around, and walk up them. Repeat for 3 times for your first set, then rest a minute. Increase the effects by working up to a slow jog up the stairs, but always walk down. Eventually, if you don’t have knee issues, you can sprint up the stairs for a massive calorie burn.
Walking down is the recover time, allows your breathing to catch up and fat to turn into energy, blasting up the stairs digs into those fat cells. This is often referred to as HIIT – High Intensity Interval Training.
Good news is, you only need to do HIIT every other day, and the calorie burning effect continues on even when your done with the last step!
Work your way up to 15 to 20 minutes, resting for 30 seconds after 60 seconds of steps.
