What Are Stair Climbers?
A stepper, step mill, or step climber — this piece of equipment is known by many different names! The stair climber has a similar concept to a treadmill, however, rather than a flat surface, steps are rotated instead. Over the last decade, stair climbing machines have become increasingly popular as they allow you to get the blood pumping from head to toe.
When we think of stair climbers we usually associate this with StairMaster™, who debuted the machine in 1984. Since then, the stair climber machine has been adopted by other brands like Spirit, DRAX, Life Fitness, and more, and has evolved into various other shapes. If the machine is a platform with steps, then it's a stair climber, if it's pedals, it's a stepper machine. They both mimic the movement of climbing stairs.
Stair climber machines have many physical benefits, including helping you improve cardiovascular strength. They allow you to engage various different muscle groups, predominately in your lower body, including your glutes, hamstrings and quads, as well as working your core muscles.
No matter your ability, whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, you can increase the intensity of your workout with an step climber, with the option to walk or run. You could even perform a HIIT workout on one.
With such variation possible, stair climber machines are the perfect piece of equipment for any gym space. Browse the range available at GymEquipment.co.uk and buy online. Don't forget to check out our gym design service too, to get the most out of your fitness space.
