Hi Jason,
I agree with Nicholas. Climbing stairs is indeed a great activity to reduce your hips and fat around your body. You need to do this activity atleast for 30 min in day or more than that. But if you are have any lower body joint problems like knee, ankle, hips pain then its better you avoid this activity as it would lead to increase in the condition and pain.
