What are the methods for stair climbing?

Many women in office buildings choose to exercise by climbing stairs due to a lack of exercise time in their daily routines. Many people think that climbing stairs is just a simple matter of stepping up one step at a time. However, this isn't the case; climbing stairs does have specific movements involved. If the movements aren't performed correctly, it can be very tiring, and there’s even a risk of twisting your ankle. Below, we introduce the correct posture.

Assuming a building height of three floors, the steps add up to a total of 33. For the first two weeks, consistently climb 100 steps, up and down once each.

Note:

When going up, take two steps per step to effectively stretch the muscles in your hips and thighs; when going down, take one step at a time, this is for safety considerations. Climbing up and down approximately 100 steps takes about 30 minutes.

After climbing stairs, remember to do stretching exercises to relax. Especially your legs and calves.

Stretching method: Leg stretching involves placing your foot on a slightly higher table and pressing down on your legs. 5 minutes for each leg; calf stretching, stand with your feet on the steps, do a heel lift, hold for several seconds, you will feel the small muscles of your calf tense. After that, lift your heels down for five seconds, these two actions are continuous, you will clearly feel the calf muscles stretching. Two actions are completed continuously, heel lift 20 times, down press 20 times.
