The stepper simulates stair climbing using hydraulic pumps which allow you to perform this exercise on the spot.
The stepper is a cardio-training machine.
Using the principle of cardio-training (aerobic exercise), the stepper enables you to improve your endurance (maximum capacity for oxygen absorption)
and your physical condition, and allows you to burn calories (controlling and losing weight as part of a diet).
In addition to the cardiovascular and respiratory benefits, the stepper tones your buttocks, thighs and calves using impact-free movements.
WARNING
Getting into shape must be done in a CONTROLLED manner.
Before beginning any exercise program, consult your doctor.
This is especially important for people aged over 35 or who have previously had health problems, and those who have not done any
sport for a number of years.
Read all instructions before use.

Cardio training is aerobic exercise (muscle development using oxygen); it enables you to improve your cardiovascular capacity.
G E N E R A l C A R d I O - T R A I N I N G P R I N C I P l E S
Maintenance/Warm-up: Gradual effort starting with 10
minutes.
For maintenance work to keep yourself in shape or get back into shape, you
can train every day for about ten minutes. This type of exercise will wake
up your muscles and joints, or it can be used as a warm-up before another
type of physical activity.
Aerobic exercise for getting into shape: Moderate effort for
a relatively long time (35 minutes to 1 hour).
If you wish to lose weight, this type of exercise, combined with a diet, is the
only way to increase the amount of energy your body consumes. To do so,
there is no need to push yourself beyond these limits. Training on a regular
basis is what will produce the best results.
Carry out this exercise at your own pace but for at least thirty minutes.
This exercise should cause you to build up a mild sweat, but it certainly
should not leave you out of breath.

A – Warm-up phase progressive effort
The warm-up is the preparatory phase for exercise and gets your body
COMPLETELY READY to start working out. It is a way to PREVENT INJURIES TO
TENDONS AND MUSCLES. It involves two stages: WAKING UP THE MUSCULAR
SYSTEM, AND OVERALL WARM-UP.
1) You wake up your muscles with a SERIES OF SPECIFIC STRETCHES that PREPARE
YOU FOR EXERCISE: every muscle group is used, and the joints are stimulated.
2) The overall warm-up makes it possible to put the cardio-vascular and respiratory
system into action gradually, for a better blood supply to the muscles and better
preparation for the exercise. It should be long enough: 10 minutes for a recreational
sport, and 20 minutes for a competitive sport. Note that you should warm up for
longer: in the morning and if you are over 55.

It's the duration of the exercise at a slow pace that will cause your body to
dip into your fat reserves to get its energy, as long as you run for more than
about thirty minutes at least three times a week.
Aerobic training for endurance: Sustained effort for 20 to 40
minutes.
This type of training aims to strengthen the heart muscles significantly and
improve respiration.
Little by little, as you train, you will be able to work out for longer, at a
faster pace.
Aerobic endurance training requires at least three training sessions per
week.
More intense workouts (anaerobic work and red-zone work) are reserved
for athletes and require specific preparation.
After each workout, set aside several minutes to jog at a lower speed to
slow down and gradually relax your body.
CONTROl YOUR PUlSE RATE
Taking your pulse regularly while exercising is essential
for controlling your training.
If you don't have an electronic measuring instrument, this
is how you do it :
To take your pulse, place 2 fingers over :
your neck, beneath the ear, or inside the wrist next to the
thumb
Don't press too hard :
Pressing too hard lessens the blood flow and can slow
down the heart rhythm.
After counting the beats for 30 seconds, multiply by 2 to
get the number of beats per minute.
Example :
A count of 75 beats gives 150 beats/minute
B
Training
The workout is the main phase of your physical activity. By working out on a
REGULAR basis, you can improve your physical fitness. Anaerobic work for impro-
ving endurance. Aerobic work for improving cardio-pulmonary strength.
C
Warming down
This corresponds to low-level activity; it is the gradual "resting" phase. WARMING
DOWN returns your cardiovascular, respiratory and circulatory systems and your
muscles to normal functioning (thereby preventing undesirable side effects such as
the build-up of lactic acid, which is one of the major causes of muscle pain namely,
cramps and stiffness).
d
Stretching
You should stretch after warming down. Stretching after exercise: Minimises
MUSCULAR STIFFNESS caused by the build-up of
