Uphill Walk
Find a slope or a staircase. Up briskly, down slowly, repeat.
How to do it
Find a slope or a staircase and go up briskly, then come down slowly as your recovery. Repeat for the prescribed time, taking as long as you need at the bottom between efforts. The downhill is rest, not a second effort — never race it.

Where it comes from
Take care
Not after knee or hip replacement, or with uncontrolled blood pressure. Descend carefully — that is where the falls happen.
The engine already leaves this out of your practice if your profile flags joint replacement, hypertension uncontrolled.
Not sure whether it suits you? Ask a Vaidya.
There's no button here to start this. Your practice is prescribed each morning — that's what keeps the dose honest.
