In an homage to Og’s pushup thread I am doing a stair steps thread.

[Timelord2067]

I was just posting from my mobile alt, but the report is only for my main alt. As to others posting as different alts with differing reports - why would they?

Re my sig - yeh I altered the main one and should get around to altering the alt sig too.

To farm merits for sig promotions?

my report: 200k,DirtyKeyboard,6,600,2025-01-01

Nope - I haven't been in any signature campaign for at least twelve months and had to reluctantly turn down an approach via P.M. just recently as I'm only posting about half of what would be required.  I try to post via the mobile app when I'm out and about.  (Doesn't always happen that way, but still...)

Today, the humble three stairs near where I live got a work out today - down/up/down, then a few minutes later up/down/up making my today for today 12 steps.  (not counting my ~3 klms walking)

Walk on!

(if a participant isn't walking on the stairs could they be said to be perched on the Mezzanine Floor?)

I’m not sure I can handle two challenges at once, but I did do 340 stairs up and down (680?) yesterday. Nothing makes me feel older. 20 years ago I could’ve ran them as a warmup, but now my legs are sore the next day. Pretty sad to be honest, but I’m working on improving in the shadows…

stairs are really hard.

breath control.

cardio
 

and weight lifting

every step up is a leg lift.


Hurting my big toe last June set everything way way way back.

the hernia operation in august 2023 was fairly healed.

but hurting the toe knocked me out of pushups and stairs for months.

I knew it was a ligament tear which always needs time to heal.

I finally got up to speed with the pushups and started back with the stairs.

I do
pushups    stairs
28             102 up and down
28...............0
27...............0
27...............0

I will slowly make the stairs all second step

I will add to the stairs and do them for every set of pushups.


Frankly I hope to add to Og's thread and my thread for years to come.

As a lifestyle change will hopefully. allow me to enjoy my btc profits well past my 80th birthday.


My biggest regret with BTC was not being younger when it came out in 2009

My biggest regret in life is not finding out my diabetes sooner ----- this is a complicated one

I've highlighted something I've found interesting - both posted their first pushup report within the same minute fourteen days apart.

They were both last active within five minutes of each-other.

VinsoN0's first post was just four days before ZeroVinsonN was spawned.

Conclusion:  Circumstantial evidence would suggest they are alts.

Well - I leave mainly *neutral* trust feedsbacks & yet people squeel like stuffed pigs which makes me suspicious.

In any event, today, I discovered a second set of stairs (five in all) a stone's throw from the three steps.

So... Five up/down/up a few moments later, down/up/down ... then wander over to the set of three and the same up/down/up a few moments later, down/up/down. ((2X15)+(2X9)) = 48 stairs.

would love to keep this up 🆙 for all of 2025

I'm used to walking around, but these stairs are adding up.  A little sore, but no more skipping leg day.  
I think I might try alternating walking all backwards up and down and then all forward the next day, repeat...

5 stairs is a good flight.  But I think we might be counting differently.  Checks OP...

Uhhh... philipma1957 we need a ruling.   I just noticed in the OP that stairs are both like pushups,  Up and Down is one stair,
"12 steps up and 12 steps down it would take 8 flights up and 8 flights down to add to 96 and I would simply do a few more to go to 100."

but you first state

"So this will be walk up  100 steps of stairs a day and of course back down the 100 steps. Total of 200 steps."

I use the up/down is one stair method.

Yeah I do 102 up and 102 down and list as 100 the reality is I say 100 up+100 down is 200 steps because of the 200 k goal.

Also at the moment doing a set of  28 pushups and rolling into 100 steps up and 100 steps down is all I can do.


So yeah I am double counting but not writing them down that way which means you list just the steps  up. I DO 8 flights of 12 steps and 1one 1/2 flight as my stairs a re spi,it 6+6..

In fact I am going to do them in  minute..


Just did them 28 pushups 102 steps up and 102 steps down

my report: 200k,DirtyKeyboard,9,900,2025-01-04

I've found stairs that have 3,5,8,9 and even 13 stairs in one direction before there is a pause. (There's one in town that has well over 100 steps in one direction that I want to revisit at some point)

BUT... (cue the ominous music)... I've been counting each step as a stair.  I didn't read the OP (slight pause to go off and read it)

This is the OP as it stands today: (with some text snipped out)

So this will be walk up  100 steps of stairs a day and of course back down the 100 steps. Total of 200 steps.

...

I would say make a small platform and step 100 times and step down 100 times.

I have a six step then landing then a six step

it is 12 steps up and 12 steps down it would take 8 flights up and 8 flights down to add to 96 and I would simply do a few more to go to 100....

So 7 x up is 91 7x down is 91

then nine steps up  nine steps down (backwards for those nine for different muscle use)

I am almost 68 years old so today I did 110 pushups and climbed 100 steps up then down

....

ate a ton of food.

then

100 steps up and down

it *seems* as though the inference is ideally, any steps would be done in both directions, *but* the actual stairs are counted - i.e. not as an up-and-down movement as in pushups.

So... If we are counting stirs as an up and down, then my total will have to be halved as they are the actual number of stairs *in one direction* that I have done.


I *think* the slight confusion comes from lower in the post which reads:

this is a copy of dirty key boards format .

the 200k is the goal "…."……………………. 200k
the name next…………………………………….. philipma1957
how many days you did the steps……… 1
total steps …………………………………….……. 100
…
date …."…………………………………..………….. 12-25-2024

In the layout only 100 has been shown which seems to have been interpreted as half of the above

So this will be walk up  100 steps of stairs a day and of course back down the 100 steps. Total of 200 steps.

I would say make a small platform and step 100 times and step down 100 times.

...

Some stairs I walk in one direction only (such as the thirteen stairs in a car park) and wouldn't necessarily pause to do return circuits of. (and if I'm going in one direction, then a set of three (e.g. down/up/down) would still give me an odd number of stairs...

(anyone getting a headache yet?)

Yesterday was a big walking day & many stairs.

I've found three very different staircases in the one carpark:

Carpark 1A: 2X10 stairs (ten steps, turn, ten more steps)
Carpark 1B: 13 stairs
Carpark 1C:45 stairs top to bottom (7, turn 7, turn 7, turn, 7 again to get from top deck to ground floor. Then a further 8, turn, 9 steps to lower ground deck)

So 1A - 2X10 u/d/u/d 80 stairs.
1B - 13 - 6 X u/d - 156 stairs.
1C - 45 - d/u/d/u 360 (that actually got the old ticker going)

I noticed another set of stairs on the lower deck where 1B's 13 stairs are - 700 metres away - the flight of stairs have just 12 steps, so add another 24 (one up, then back down). (which by the time you've walked to the stairs, walked to the other set and back to the first brings the actual walking count to very close to 1 mile/1,600 metres).

THEN I made my way over to the stairs close to where I live.

5 steps two sets of up/down/up (then down, up, down) - 30 steps.

the original three steps I did a seedate d/u/d/u = 12 steps.

While I was doing the five stair case, I spotted yet another flight of stairs (all four steps), but it's across a busy road, so I probably won't be utilising them on a regular basis.

============

80 + 156 + 360 + 30 + 12 = 638 staircase stairs in one direction.

Walk on!

Yeah stairs are usually easy to find. Nice that you are doing them.
