Forget the stairclimber in your local gym. How about taking your next full-body strength program to your staircase at home? Using one set of stairs anywhere, you could sculpt stronger muscles, strengthen your core and activate muscle groups from head to toe. 

In five bodyweight exercises, these full-body moves target the chest, shoulders, triceps, core, hip flexors, glutes and legs. You don’t need a yoga mat, dumbbells, or even the best kettlebells to get it done, and you can leave the stairclimbers to those in the gym.
