  • A study suggests that climbing at least five flights of stairs daily reduces cardiovascular risks by 20 per cent. Climbing stairs is more effective than walking, burning more calories and enhancing muscle strength,

A recent study suggests that climbing stairs can be as effective for cardiovascular health as walking 10,000 steps. According to the research, climbing just 50 stairs, or about five flights, daily can provide significant health benefits, potentially reducing the risk of heart disease by improving cardiorespiratory fitness. This activity is particularly beneficial for those who might find it challenging to accumulate 10,000 steps due to time constraints or other limitations. The study highlights that stair climbing is a time-efficient way to enhance fitness, as it engages multiple muscle groups and increases heart rate more intensely than walking on flat ground. However, the exact number of stairs one should climb to match the benefits of 10,000 steps isn't universally defined, but the general recommendation is to aim for at least 50 steps daily, with more being potentially more beneficial.
