Try taking more stairs throughout your day! Stairs are a great source of cardio and excellent for glutes, quads and calves. Think of the calories you could burn by choosing the stairs instead of the elevator.
Even if you're not ready to sprint upstairs yet, walking up and down stairs is a great workout too. Going down the stairs is beneficial too. Not only so that you can beast yourself going back up; but the motion is actually a good example of eccentric contraction as your muscles control your descent.
Is the weather too crappy to run outside at all? No problem. Put on your workout gear and hit the stairs in your house or apartment building. 15 mins of up and down the stairs and you'll burn dozens of calories and give your heart and lungs a big boost.
