I have 12 steps to first floor from kitchen in second floor.
so I am still discovering just how many steps / flights of stairs I can do.
I WENT to doctor to check the operation healing so doctor was happy. But he saw me early so I decided to do one set at lunch vs 2 one at breakfast one at dinner.
SINCE I did just one set I did 240 steps up and down which is 20 flights of stairs up and down. IT is real cardio work. I COULD do more steps than 240 I am now past 8 minutes time. WANT TO ADD to steps and time.
I decided to try to do 1 set a day and get to 15-20 minutes
I did 276 steps or 23 flights of stairs today in 9 minutes and 2 seconds.
After dinner I will do relaxed cycle time with rubber band curls.
I work upper body and allow my legs a stretch exercise.
The dual stair workout was not allowing me recovery time
I did 288 steps 24 flights of stairs in 9 minutes and 58 seconds.
I think I am closing in on how many I can really do as today my left knee felt just a bit of pain after exercise.
After dinner I will do relaxed stationary cycle and pull the rubber bands for arm muscle .
So my knee felt some pain yesterday I was in a pair of shorts while working out so today I kept the AC off and the house was 86f or 30c
The knee had no pain. I pushed up to 11 minutes and 11 seconds so 324 steps is 27 flight of stairs.
I am nearing top end of my breath control. ie I am panting like a mofo by the time I get to 9 minutes I do the last 2 minutes or so on will.
My legs are holding up.
The left knee was good with the hotter room.
I am in the 192 pound range. I was about 213 in April so say 20 pound weight loss.
A1C dropped from 6.3 to 5.3.
6.3 is decent for a type 2 diabetic but 5.3 is solid number doctor is going to like that.
I go to doctor on June 10 we will see how other numbers are.
Did all time best today 360 steps 30 flights of stairs in 12 minutes and 9 seconds.
I weigh 193 pounds so I did 360x193 = 69480 pounds lift up and placed down in 8 inch distances.
Now granted the weight moved is mostly all moved by leg and buttock muscles. I bit of arm as I do pull on the banisters some of the time.
If you weigh 193 and do 100 pushups that would be 193x100 = 19300 pounds lifted up and lowered down about 13 inches different muscles.
