Hi guys,

I know that my other half wants one of those mini stepper machines as shes mentioned it in passing a couple of times in the last few months. I want to get her one for christmas but having looked them up there seem to be two types: Up-Down stepper, and a swing stepper. I have tried googling this but really cant find any information on which is better/healthier etc. I assume she will just want to watch tv etc whilst she does it and is already in decent shape i think shes just looking to tone legs/abs and generally do some light cardio.

Does anyone use or have experience of these machines and could make me a recommendation?

Cheers
 
Any particular reason? There are umpteen better ways to both get fit and firm up lower quadrants that don't cost money...?

My parents had one ages ago and it just wound up a thing of amusement for us as kids. Pointless, IMHO.

She wants one, makes for an easy present. She won't go to gym with me or running etc, if she will use it even just whilst watching TV a couple evenings a week it's better than nothing.
 
My mum had one of these many years, which I used a little. It did nothing for me. Properly executed squats and lunges would be a better lower body workout.
