That answer means 10 cal walking down 1 flight, which is 5 times this one. And both assume that we know how many steps and/or feet in a "flight", which is by no means standard!

∙ 14y agoThe amount of calories a body will burn is dependant on how much stairs you climb, how vigorously you do it, and your bodies current level of stamina. Type this into Google and I think there is a chart that lists the amount of calories burned over a set amount of time doing one activity. My experience with calories is that, even if you think you burned a lot of calories doing one activity, the actual amount you have burned is very small. (that was the case with me, I found out that 45 minutes of sprinting on a bike, only burned about 150 calories, but the amount will be different for you (hopefully higher then mine))

Can you lose weight walking down flights of stairs?
Look at it this way... To lose one pound of weight, you must have a total NEGATIVE intake of 3600 calories. Stair-climbing does burn more calories than walking on a flat surface, but while burning calories doing this you are building muscles (heart, in your legs & buttocks, etc), which is good. Also, the exercise should be over at least a 20 minute period, several days a week primarily for your cardiac workout... But you've got to burn that 3600 calories in order to lose the weight, and do it so that you lose about 1/2 pound a week (women) or 1 pound a week for men. If the total intake of calories is greater than you expend, then your weight will go up correspondingly.

Do you lose weight from walking from the third floor to the first floor at school between classes?
When you walk, even when going downhill or down the stairs, you are burning calories. Any calories you burn come from the glycogen stored in your body in the form of adipose (fat) tissue. So, even if you are not losing weight, you are doing what you can not to gain more. Walking up the stairs burns more calories than walking down, so avoid the elevator.

How many lunges do you have to do to lose one pound?
1 pound equals 3,500 calories. You can burn around 0.1 calories per jump. 3,500 calories divided by 0.1 calories per jump is 35,000 jumps in 1 pound. That would take almost 3 hours to burn off (at 200 jumps per minute)
