With a week to go till February I’m thinking I will do stair climbing through Chicago’s cruelest month of weather! I finished my weights workout today by running out to the stairs and dashing up from my floor to the top. It was not a problem but I definitely need some stair climbing conditioning! 1000 floors for the month seems like a good goal. I should surpass it.
Like any other form of cardio, it just takes pushing past your comfort zone. When I started working on doing high-volume kettlebell swings, a couple hundred alternating hand swings could get my breathing pretty rapid. It didn’t take long however before my breathing was steady. As I near the end of the 10K Kettlebell Swings Challenge month, it takes swings with the 65lb-er and single handed swings with the 40lb-er to speed my breathing up.
It will be interesting to see how quickly my breathing will steady-out once I get the stair climbing of the whole building started on a daily basis.
