Editor's Notes
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Adults need two hours and 30 minutes a week of moderate-intensity exercise to stay fit. You can use common objects in your environment, such as stairs, to achieve the health benefits of aerobic exercise without ever setting foot in a gym. Fit exercise into your schedule whenever you can. Stair climbing for just 10 minutes, three times a day, for example, will total 30 minutes of heart-strengthening exercise, putting you well on your way to becoming fit.
Benefits - Physical Benefits-longer life- Climbing the stairs can add more years to your life, and in more ways than one.. Stair climbing strengthens your lungs and heart. Stronger lungs allow you to take in more oxygen. A more efficient body has greater immunity, so you may not get colds as often, and your likelihood for developing chronic health problems such as Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure will be significantly diminished.
Fat Burning
If you want to lose a pound, you have to burn 3,500 more calories than you eat. Stair climbing is an efficient way to burn calories. A 120-pound person walking up stairs for 30 minutes burns 220 calories, compared to only 190 calories burned doing 30 minutes of high-impact aerobics, according to the Health Status website. Climbing just two flights of stairs everyday could result a loss of 2.7kg or 6lbs per year. Six flights a day could help you trim nearly 18 lbs. Why Weight?
Mental Benefits
Every time you climb a flight of stairs, your body releases chemical endorphins, a type of neurotransmitter, making you feel happy and calm. Over time, your ability to focus and concentrate will improve, and you will feel less stressed out.
Time and Energy Saver
Health is not the only thing that benefits from climbing the stairs. It can also save you a great amount of time and reduce energy consumption. It's sometimes much faster to take the stairs, especially during peak times when elevators take a long time to arrive on the floor of your location. It is also good for the environment because it lessens energy consumption.
