Lately for cardio, I've been jogging/walking up and down my stairs at home. I'm just curious how many calories yall think I burned today:
Im 29, 215lb male.
Jogged mostly, 16 up, then walked 16 down repeatedly.
Duration 1 hour.
Step counter said I went 6500 steps.
Heart rate about 160 the entire time.

Wacha think? This is purely for fun and guestimation. Thanks!!

    According to a sign at the bottom of a flight of stairs up to the floor where I used to work ...

    30 calories for 5 flights of stairs.
