A Total Body Stair Workout
Stairs. Ahhh!! Even the mention of stairs gets my heart pumping a little faster! BUT when I want an intense workout that will give me results, I hit the stairs!! Stairs are an amazing outdoor workout that you can do at a park, a school, the beach, a hotel, at home, or wherever else you find a long staircase! This workout will get you bikini ready in no time by helping you burn fat and tone up. It’s also a great way to add variety to your workout plan. If you’ve been following my fitness tips, then you already know that variety in a workout schedule is key to sticking with it, avoiding boredom, and seeing results!
I also wanted to share this workout because this is my go-to workout when I am trying to get ready for some sort of event. This workout helps me get in shape fast so that I feel good!! And when you FEEL GOOD, you look GOOD too!!! Anyway, I have a few events coming up (a trip to Vegas and I’m a bridesmaid in one of my BFF’s wedding), so I’ve decided that it’s time for me to (literally) step up my workout routine. I plan to do my trusty stair workout at least 2 times a week in addition to my usual workouts and yoga. So here it it, the ultimate stair workout:
Finish with more ab work if you wish, a cool down, and stretching! Also remember to drink lots of water, cause this workout will make you sweat!!
Depending on the length of the stairs and your fitness level, repeat this workout 2-3 times. It should be about a 30 min workout.
*Note- I recommend looking for a staircase that has around 40 steps or 3-4 flights. If your stairs are too short, you can add more stair reps (up and downs) as needed.
**If you are a beginner, walk or jog slow until you get comfortable with the stairs. Remember to be careful and have fun!
