Workout Guide
Use of the Step Machine will help tone abs, legs, thighs, buttock muscles, and arms
if using the resistance bands. The stepper also provides a cardiovascular workout.
The stepper is fitted with interdependent pedals; the braking system will therefore
depend on the speed of your training.
To increase aerobic intensity, exercise at a faster rhythm (20 minutes minimum
training per day). This type of exercise should be carried out three times a week.
To increase muscle toning, do the exercise faster in series with rest time in between.
You can do this type of exercise every other day.
Always start slowly to warm up for a few minutes.
How you begin your exercise program depends on your physical condition. If you
have been inactive for several years or are severely overweight, start slowly and
increase your workout time gradually. Increase your workout intensity gradually by
monitoring your heart rate while you exercise. Know your limits and train within
them. Always use common sense when exercising.

effect and to avoid damaging your joints
