Posted Aug 26 2011 3:00am

Fit in 30 Minutes! Use the Stairs. A good cardio routine is what we all need. This one is great because you can burn 300 calories each time you do it. All you need is a set of stairs. Remember, always stretch after every cardio routine.

2-MINUTES: Start warming up by walking up and down the stairs, repeatedly bringing your arms over your head and back down.

*2-MINUTES: Step up and down on the first step, leading with your right foot, bring arms over your head with each step up. For the last 30 seconds, climb the full flight of stairs, alternating cossing your arms in front of you at chest level and raising them over your head.

2-MINUTES: Repeat the second 2 minutes.

2-MINUTES: Do alternating front lunges onto first step, keep knee over ankle.

2-MINUTES: Walk up the stairs, skipping every other step; walk down and repeat.

**2-MINUTES: Run up and down the stairs.

START Repeat the sequence starting at this * symbol

STOP Stop the sequence when you see ** this symbol.

Repeat 3 times.

2-MINUTES: Cooldown. Place right heel on first step and draw hips back to stretch hamstrings; hold 15 seconds, switch sides. Next, stand on first step wtih right heel off the edge; press down to stretch calf and Achilles tendon. Hold for 15 seconds; switch sides.
