Does Stair Climbing actually make a difference, or is it overhyped?

Stair climbing has been studied as a specific, everyday form of vigorous physical activity across several independent cohorts spanning different countries, with a consistent, though modest and largely observational, direction of benefit. Weighing the data: Stair Climbing looks an early-stage, lower-priority area for now — the evidence is only moderate (48/100), and its estimated impact (42/100) is on the lower end too.
