Hi,
my office is on 8th floor and I just thought of starting to go for stair climbing break twice a day.

I just read somewhere that climbing 8 floors will burn just around 20 calories and I was so much demotivated. :explode:
Was this estimate correct or do you know any better approximation please.

    Well, even if it's just 20 calories. You can try working out by going really fast as you can (which will get your heart rate up) lift your knees high. It'll look like high knees jump.
