Walk up the stairs, then walk back down.
Stair climb
How to do it
- One hand on the rail, always.
- Whole foot on each step.
- Walk down. Nobody runs down stairs.
- A step or a stair
- A flight of stairs, with a rail.
- One hand on the rail, and walk down, never run.
Watch out for this
Make it fit you
The right version is the hardest one you can still do properly. That is not a kindness, it is how this works.
Easier
- Go up one step at a time and rest at the top.
Harder
Can't jump? Walk, don't bound: one step at a time.
Sitting down? step-up
