Benefits Of A Stair Climbing Workout

If you have always given up the stairs in favour of taking the elevator at work, time to turn that habit around.
 
Stairwell workouts are increasingly being looked as power-charged regimens. They have even resulted in skyscraper runs in the West.
 
Here's why you need to start climbing today...

Improves heart health:
The regimen works on cardio vascular fitness and reduces the risk of heart attack.
 
Great toner:
As you ascend the stairs, you tone up your quadriceps, hamstrings and calves. It's thus apt for those with sedentary jobs.
 
Calorie torcher:
As you move against gravity, the body has to work that much harder, leading to greater calorie loss. As per a study, you can burn more calories for every minute that you climb the stairs than when you jog.
 
It's anytime, anywhere:
You don't need to check into the gym or roll out the yoga mat for this one. It's as convenient as heading to the nearest flight of stairs.
 
Elevates the mood:
As in increases the endorphins, it also de-stresses the mind.

Watch out: Those with knee trouble should avoid this.
 
DID YOU KNOW?
Climbing just 10 flights of stairs a day is said to lower the average early mortality risk by 33%.

Times Newspaper in Education (Times NIE) is a novel program that helps students ‘Stay Ahead’ and aims at making ‘Learning Fun’. It introduces concepts that help individual growth and development beyond school curriculum.

A brainchild of The Times of India, the world’s leading English newspapers, Times NIE nurtures progress and innovation. Adapted from the international concept, Times Newspaper in Education program (Times NIE) was initiated in India in 1985.

Today we have over 3000 schools and over 9 lac students subscribing to the programme, spanning 16 cities viz. Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, Kolkata, Chennai, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kochi, Lucknow, Coimbatore, Chandigarh, Dehradun, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam, and Jaipur.

The Times of India Student edition, a customized student newspaper exclusively for the students, packs a powerful punch in terms of content that leads to a smarter and superior learning experience. The information is crafted such that it finds use in classroom discussions, thus making it relevant and current. It truly gives education a new dimension by fostering the simple habit of reading which in turn paves the way for a confident, informed and aware individual. A newspaper that inspires young minds and equips them to face challenges of today’s world, making way for global citizens.

Empowering students with new cutting-edge knowledge through various educative and informative activities is a commitment and tradition of Times NIE. The programme serves as a catalyst of education and interaction, as well as a window into the minds of the quintessential Indian youth. On a significant scale Times NIE comprises diverse interesting activities and events that boost the child’s passion for learning, while revealing hidden talent.

While you are aware that The Times of India is among the leading English Newspapers across the world, it has consummated its position as an everlasting winner. With several international awards and recognitions to its credit, The Times of India and Times NIE have validated an enduring tradition of setting the highest benchmarks in every respect. We have been awarded with the two most prestigious awards, Times NIE - World’s No.1 NIE program and The Times of India, Student Edition - World’s No.1 Newspaper for the youth in 2006 by the celebrated World Association of Newspapers (WAN). In 2008 we were honoured by the International Newspaper Marketing Association (INMA), yet another international recognition for ‘Youth Audience Development’. In 2013 we were again honoured by the celebrated World Association of Newspapers (WAN) as the ‘Times NIE - World’s Best Youth Engagement Program’.

Times NIE has grown remarkably over the last three and a half decades, touching millions of children across more than 16 Indian cities. Our absolute commitment towards the fledgling generation remains undiluted and our greatest strength lies in the school partnership and commitment.
