Admit it. You need to get in better shape and lose some weight. Or, perhaps you're already in pretty good shape, but bored with your routine. Regardless, learn how Stair Climbing (sometimes called Vertical Training), just the simple action of going up stairs, can be used to give you a great workout in one-third to one-half the time of your current program. Learn more about this great 'vertical' sport, and see if it's for you.Last year, I used my own 100 day program to complete my first organized Stair Climb, the 2011 America Lung Association Philadelphia Fight for Air Climb, a 50 story, 1088 step climb. I made my way up to the top in 10 minutes and 37 seconds, good for 9th our of 35 in my age group. You may be able to follow the same plan and be ready in 100 days also. Use my book to locate an organized Stair Climb near you, and amaze yourself, your friends and family, with your new found vigor and vitality.
