This workout is perfect for outdoors or indoors – if you are outdoors, find a local high school stadium or even a building with a large flight of stairs (I have a church in my neighborhood that has a great flight of cement stairs I use). If you are indoors, use the stairs in your house, the flight of stairs that leads up to your apartment, or even the stairs in a hotel. There is no excuse to not try this workout!

For this workout, I used a flight of stairs that had 20 stairs. If yours has less stairs (i.e. only 10), double the time or reps of each exercise for a killer workout!

Want to push yourself? I have included challenge exercises to try if you are an experienced stair climber!
