Climbing five floors is qualitatively different from twenty. You can do the former anaerobically easily enough, but the latter is firmly in the aerobic regime unless you're an Olympic-level 400m sprinter.

Even an olympic sprinter will not be able to climb for 100m in anaerobic regime.

Sure. So you rest a minute or two.

But tell you what. I'll try the experiment later today.
