Posted Apr 1, 2022

'(KUTV) Its getting cooler outside, so  exercise specialist Jeffrey Beck, from the Intermountain Medical Center Heart Institute in Murray shows us how we can get some great exercise inside.Whether you\'re lucky enough to get outside and climb stairs or do them at home or are relegated to the stairwell in your office building, taking flight and hitting the steps can be one of the best ways to blast that body. Plus, they\'re almost always easily accessible and free, making stairs one of the most underrated and effective pieces of workout equipment. Stair exercises have become very popular. Clubs of stair climbers have even popped up across the country, scaling the floors of tall buildings to boost cardiovascular capacity and tone muscles, according to USA today. Even climbing the stairs several times per day for 15 minutes can offer benefits. Consult with your physician before beginning a stair climbing exercise program to ensure you are healthy enough.Climbing stairs burns calories, which can help you better manage your weight. Taking the stairs or doing stair exercises helps you increase your overall activity, contributing to a higher daily calorie burn. For example, a 150-lb. Person will burn about 544 calories just walking up stairs for an hour, according to caloriesperhour.com. The sport of stair climbing, which involves running up stairs, burns nearly twice as many calories as such sports as volleyball and baseball. The number of calories you burn will depend on your weight, the slope of the stairs, number of stairs and your pace.Jeffrey demonstrates 4 exercises using stairs:Incline pushupsDecline pushupsStep upsLunges(Copyright 2014 Sinclair Broadcast Group)'
