 Stair Climbing: Your No-Gym Workout
Stairs at your home or office can provide you with a great no-gym workout. And it is a workout that you can easily fit into your home or office routine. Climbing the stairs can improve your cardiovascular health, provide weight-bearing exercise for healthier bones, and help you burn calories. A 150-pound person can burn 10 calories a minute climbing stairs according to the Calorie Control Council (CCC). That may not sound like much, but it starts to add up as you climb stairs throughout your day. An hour of stair climbing would burn 600 calories.
