I know this was a while back for you, but some tips for new readers. If you are morbidly obese, especially 50-100 pounds over, take your time. One to two flights can leave you dizzy, fast heartbeats and panic. Take your time over a period of months. Benefit is not how fast you do it, it's just do it at your pace. Dealing with stairs has other issues for obese, it's fear of a heart attack which triggers tightness of chest muscles, heavy breathing which can hyperventilate ad sometimes rib muscle spasms that mimick heart pain. Being normal weight, heart attack is not something of concern when climbing stairs. For the obese, it's on top of the list of why not climb them and that fear screws you up big time mentally. The best way for someone of normal weight to understand is to eat a full buffet meal, then have a 100 person on your back and climb the stairs. That's the feeling when people are morbidly obese. My workout is not going up and down my stairs at home 20 times per workout. I lost 30 pounds and still have 80 more to go. Thanks for your story. Good for you!
