Determined to climb 300 stairs daily.. Its not in one go, but yes by end of the day the count should be 300..

I hope doing it in intervals helps me loose few pounds.. Is it ok to do it in intervals or it has to be done in one go?

if anyone has done it, share your experience, or anyone willing to do it.. lets do it together.

I'm using the London underground stairs as an extra way to boost the staircount! Good luck with the rest of your week!

Wow! Have you changed anything else or is this purely from stair climbing? Check out these case studies. Very inspiring and just shows how it all adds up.

I am simply trying to avoid sugar and aerated drinks. I go for sugar free tea or coffee whenever needed.

The underground is a great work out. Lots and lots of steps. You definitely feel the burn. Do you have to stop during the big climbs or can you get to the top without a break?

Stairs climbing is a good way of burning calories. The best way is climbing the stairs (10-12 steps) and coming down. You can do it 10 times after practicing it daily. Increase it slowly. Do it that you can get little exertion and rest for a while. I am doing it daily .

300 sounds like a good target! I reckon you can do a couple of floors at a time and still get plenty of benefit

I just found you when I googled "stair climbing goal." I am 73. I'd recovered from hip replacement a couple of years ago and found that I like stair climbin. I don't get bored in our boring stairwells and I keep at it. Unfortunately, I had some health issues in 2017, but am now looking forward to a drama-free 2018. So I've started climbing again. I climbed 25 flights twice recently (once two days ago and now.) So I decided to see what there was on goals. Voila -- there was your 300 steps which at 12 steps a flight of stairs exactly what I am just doing. What fun to find you.

Not what you're looking for?
