The weather right now in LA is perfect for outdoor workouts, mid seventy's sunny but not hot with a breeze if your by the ocean. Yesterday I ran the Santa Monica stairs —a staircase on 4th and San Vincenti that is about 200 steps straight up. Then you can either take the stair back down or run back down the cannon on the sidewalk (it's about 600 meters) I alternated 1x jogging up the stairs 1x walking up skipping a step to work my glutes. I was able to do eight times before I decided to call it a day and end with a run up the cannon back to the car. This is a fun workout that can be as difficult or easy as you want it to be. (My boyfriend said he has even seen a lady doing the stairs w a baby on her back) If you live in the west LA area you should definitely try this out, you may even be lucky enough to see Matthew McConaughey looking like a sweaty mess running up them. The view from the top isn't bad either... ;)
PS- If you are not lucky enough to have a large staircase with ocean views at your disposal, any stairs will do really. Just picture yourself climbing these stairs in Santorini...with Mattew McConaughey waiting for you at the top.
