I have been doing about 1,000 “extra” stairs every work day for several years, and not much else for regular exercise. I do these in sets of 250, 4 times per work day.

My resting heart rate comes in under 50, if this adds any credence to the study results.

For several years I have undertaken a rigorous program of one situp a day. I do the first half when I get up and the last half when I go to bed.

So far It has been working great

Take your pulse immediately after a set, then 2 minutes after, and check the delta online against your age. Sounds like you're in great shape to me!

Anyone starting/doing strenuous exorcise, get a Coronary Calcium Scan for about $75. If you're just beginning are starting back, take it easy and work up to where you want to be over a period of weeks.

Proper exercise, nutrition, and a few supplemental nutrients can make a huge difference in a person's health status.
