Training effects of short bouts of stair climbing on cardiorespiratory fitness, blood lipids, and homocysteine in sedentary young women

Objectives: To study the training effects of eight weeks of stair climbing on Vo2max, blood lipids, and homocysteine in sedentary, but otherwise healthy young women. Methods: Fifteen women (mean (SD) age 18.8 (0.7) years) were randomly assigned to control (n  =  7) or stair climbing (n  =  8) groups...

description Objectives: To study the training effects of eight weeks of stair climbing on Vo2max, blood lipids, and homocysteine in sedentary, but otherwise healthy young women. Methods: Fifteen women (mean (SD) age 18.8 (0.7) years) were randomly assigned to control (n  =  7) or stair climbing (n  =  8) groups. Stair climbing was progressively increased from one ascent a day in week 1 to five ascents a day in weeks 7 and 8. Training took place five days a week on a public access staircase (199 steps), at a stepping rate of 90 steps a minute. Each ascent took about two minutes to complete. Subjects agreed not to change their diet or lifestyle over the experimental period. Results: Relative to controls, the stair climbing group displayed a 17.1% increase in Vo2max and a 7.7% reduction in low density lipoprotein cholesterol (p

No change occurred in total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglycerides, or homocysteine. Conclusions: The study confirms that accumulating short bouts of stair climbing activity throughout the day can favourably alter important cardiovascular risk factors in previously sedentary young women. Such exercise may be easily incorporated into the working day and therefore should be promoted by public health guidelines.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0306-3674</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1473-0480</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1136/bjsm.2002.001131</identifier><identifier>PMID: 16118293</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>England: BMJ Publishing Group Ltd and British Association of Sport and Exercise Medicine</publisher><subject>accumulated exercise ; Adolescent ; Body Composition ; cardiovascular disease ; cardiovascular disease risk ; Cardiovascular Diseases - prevention &amp; control ; Climbing ; CVD ; Exercise ; Exercise Therapy - methods ; Female ; HDL-C ; Health risk assessment ; high density lipoprotein cholesterol ; Homocysteine - blood ; Humans ; LDL-C ; Life Style ; Lipids ; Lipids - blood ; Lipoproteins - blood ; low density lipoprotein cholesterol ; maximal oxygen consumption ; Original ; Oxygen Consumption - physiology ; physical activity ; Physical Education and Training - methods ; Physical Fitness - physiology ; Respiratory system ; Risk Factors ; Sports medicine ; stair climbing ; Studies ; total cholesterol ; Triglycerides - blood ; Vo2max ; Women ; Women's Health</subject><ispartof>British journal of sports medicine, 2005-09, Vol.39 (9), p.590-593</ispartof><rights>Copyright 2005 British Journal of Sports Medicine</rights><rights>Copyright: 2005 Copyright 2005 British Journal of Sports Medicine</rights><rights>Copyright BMJ Publishing Group Sep 2005</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><oa>free_for_read</oa><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-b620t-af0b7312a5549346d4fec89afef17f52185e6357c107905a8c0d60ba524138ee3</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-b620t-af0b7312a5549346d4fec89afef17f52185e6357c107905a8c0d60ba524138ee3</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1725304/pdf/$$EPDF$$P50$$Gpubmedcentral$$H</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1725304/$$EHTML$$P50$$Gpubmedcentral$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>230,315,729,782,786,887,27931,27932,53798,53800</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16118293$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Boreham, C A G</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Kennedy, R A</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Murphy, M H</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Tully, M</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Wallace, W F M</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Young, I</creatorcontrib><title>Training effects of short bouts of stair climbing on cardiorespiratory fitness, blood lipids, and homocysteine in sedentary young women</title><title>British journal of sports medicine</title><addtitle>Br J Sports Med</addtitle><description>Objectives: To study the training effects of eight weeks of stair climbing on Vo2max, blood lipids, and homocysteine in sedentary, but otherwise healthy young women.
