Step it Up

Posted By: Personal Trainer Huntington | Fitness Together Cold Spring Hills on 12/08/2011

Have you ever had to climb more than ten flights of stairs? Even if you’re in excellent shape, scaling the steps can be pretty exhausting. Climbing stairs can be problematic for so many people because, in addition to working against gravity, taking the steps requires using muscles groups that are often skipped by traditional workouts. That’s why step aerobics were so popular several years ago.

Fortunately, there are a variety of new tools available to help you take advantage of climbing the stairs. Graduated steps, Jacob’s ladder and the treadmill offer a variety of "stair-related" exercises that can help you take your lower-body workout to the next level. If you haven’t spent any time on the stairs recently, check out the your options and see how you feel. You might be surprised.
