If you like the idea of climbing stairs for exercise, and would like to take it to a much higher level, Former Fat Guy has a stair training plan to help you get in shape fast – stair running for fat loss.
Of course, stair running is not for the beginner – follow an aerobic training program first so that you build up your cardio strength to a level where you can jog continuously without too much effort for 15 to 20 minutes non-stop before giving stair running a go.
And you need a good flight stairs to use, Former Fat Guy suggests 20 to 30 stairs are about right.
After warming up by walking up and down the flight of stairs for 5 minutes you can start sprinting up the stairs then walking down repeating 3 to 5 times.
And if you want more after that he suggests more sets, more stairs or adding a weighted vest.
Stair running is great for getting super fit and for fat burning and if you want to feel motivated to do it you can always pretend you’re Rocky Balboa in training in that famous scene on the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art with music “Gonna Fly Now”blasting out in the background….
