Climbing stairs to burn how many calories generally depends on weight, exercise, temperature and climbing speed and other reasons. Generally in the normal state to 3 kilometers / hour speed, climbing stairs for 1 hour will probably consume 520 kcal calories, 23% more than jogging, 4 times more than walking, so the consumption of calories is still relatively high. Going up the stairs consumes more calories, while going down the stairs consumes 1/3 of the calories consumed going up the stairs, which means that going down the stairs for 1 hour will consume about 170 kcal. Climbing stairs is a weight-bearing exercise that consumes more calories, but as a workout, it does not promote overtraining. Because in the process of climbing stairs, the weight borne by the knee will instantly increase to about 4 times, the faster the speed, the greater the pressure on the knee joints, and the knee joints also need to move back and forth, on the meniscus and other soft tissues will also cause wear and tear.
