Fitness on the stairs and a shrimp recipe (Day 4)

Are you ready to do some stairs? No? Too bad.



I’m a big fan of exercising outside, because research shows that people go harder, for longer and enjoy it more when they exercise outdoors compared to in. It is July, after all, so hopefully it’s nice out. (Sunscreen!)



If possible, find a nice set of stairs
(without too many people using them) and go up them at a good pace.
Recover on the way down by taking each step slowly. If you’re new to
exercise I want to caution you about overdoing it, because this is an
exercise that you can really feel for a few days afterwards. Push, but
within reason.



And, of course, a nice walk afterwards will help loosen you up. If you
still haven’t bought that exercise ball I recommended on Day 1, make
sure you get it today because you’ll need it tomorrow.
