For those that run bleachers, going up do you run the actual walk way, which has 2 steps per bleacher seat, or do you go straight up the bleachers.
Put in 30 minutes on the bleachers trying out both ways yesterday, seemed like going up the bleachers (larger steps) seemed to work more of my leg muscles, and worked all the way up to the glutes, due to the longer stride and higher step vs. the walkway which is shorter stride and smaller targeted muscle group.
I know coming down the walkway felt better, where as the longer strides coming down the bleachers left my knees feeling unstable.
Curious how others incorporate this type of work.
