Ok. By "warm up" I mean different thing. Not training, but starting slowly in each attempt. May be HR monitor will be useful for that.
BTW when we were kids we run 400 steps trying to get to the tenth floor before elevator... Going down was normal and much faster.
Now I see 1307 steps up as a broken elevator in 30-story building. I hate even think about it.
