I have stair climbing as part of my exercise routine at work, it’s just something easy I can fit into my workday that hopefully counteracts the unhealthiness of just sitting in an office chair all day. I work on the 4th floor and take the stairs everytime, but I’ll add on multiple laps whenever I need to go up. I’ve been doing it for years, but I’m still worn out and a sweaty mess after 3 laps up and down. It takes a bit of discipline to stick to, but the hardest thing is just getting a routine established, start small and just do something repeatable, then build up from there.
