Hi. Since i moved to a new apartment on the 6th floor almost 11 months ago, I have climbing stairs for the last 10 months, that is 12 flights of stairs everyday. On some instances 2 or 3 times a day. The last 50 days, i have been climbing 13 floors in the same building, which is actually 26 flights of stairs. I actually gave myself a 30 day challenge to do the 26 flights. It has reached a point that i would actually feel bad if i skipped climbing the 26 flights of stairs. I intend to continue do this always

I walk up 108 floors twice a week.
My apartment has 18 floors, I repeat this 6 times within 1 hour
(Walk up, and take the elevator down)

I have love/hate relationship with the stair master. I’m a 45 years old male, and on a good day, I can get 4200-4300 steps in an hour. I’m about 5’11’’ and weigh 235. So it’s tough as hell. I think it’ll be easier once I get to 200 pounds. Oh, bring water. After 25 minutes it’s like your in a sauna

I work in a 9 floor flour mill. We have 2 elevators but I will walk around 20-30 floors total on the average day.

taking the stairs 4 to 5 times a week.
because the elevator sometimes is only for the Faculty members. my last resort is taking the stairs.
I'm a basketball player too.

Up and down a 6-story office building 10 times takes 45-50 minutes, slow pace, holding the handrail for this 69-year-old. Music, and chatting make the time go faster. A 20 minute swim after stretches my (sad little) muscles.

I have to scale steep stairs that goes straight up six floors (I count the floors of the buildings next to the stairs) from the train station to work every morning. I’m usually running late so I’m usually trying to get up those stairs as quickly as my lungs can take. I’m always stuffed when I get to the top but I feel more focused during the day to be honest. It’s an exhausting but good start to the day. I’m now planning on doing those stairs in my lunch times!

I do about 200 floors on the stairmaster or about 3300 steps three times a week when doing cardio, but I do mostly weightlifting

[sergemarlon]

Do you have rough guidelines for how long a healthy individual can safely stay in each training zone?
