Stair climbing is a calorie-blasting exercise. According to our calculator, a 140-pound woman will burn 9 calories per minute by running up the stairs. If you are pressed for a time, a few minutes of running up and down the stairs will burn enough calories to speed your weight loss.
It uses the following formula to calculate how many calories per minute you will burn during the activity and then multiply that number by your total exercise minutes. Energy expenditure (calories/minute) = .0175 x MET (from table) x weight (in kilograms).
