In Los Angeles everyone tries to keep healthy and fit. With southern California's amazing weather it is hard not to exercise outside. While trails can be a great workout I found an even better bum busting workout... the Santa Monica Stairs! Seriously they will kick your bum into shape!!
There are two sets of stairs... The first set is made up of small concrete steps that is broken into about four sections. I enjoyed going down this set of stairs as it seemed easier on the knees. The second set is wooden and has a little bigger step and is broken into three sections. Both sets have areas to take a little break while climbing up or down.

My first try at the SM stairs I made the loop between the first and second set four times, my second time I made the loops five. Cannot wait to keep increasing my loops and time! These stairs are intense and make for a great and fun workout! What would be a workout in California without a amazing views!?!? While at the top of each set there were views of Brentwood, Pacific Palisades all the way to the Pacific Ocean.
