The beginning of the week usually brings with it increased energy levels, so take to the hills — or in this case the stairs — with this trio of activities to target your leg muscles. First, go up the stairs one at a time, then walk down. The next time up, take the stairs two at a time. Again walk down, using the time as your recovery period. Third, do stair skates, jumping side to side from one step to the next, then walk down. Repeat sequence for 30 minutes.
