In order to keep your figure in great shape, many different simulators have been invented. The stepper has recently become one of the favorites of women. After all, he is working on the problem area of many ladies - legs and hips.
Instructions
Step 1
Experts attribute the stepper to cardiovascular equipment. When exercising on it, a person makes movements as if climbing a ladder, hence the name of the simulator. The stepper helps to make the buttocks and calves beautiful, to lose weight, it makes all the systems of the human body work actively.
Step 2
The device of the stepper is simple: it is a machine with two pedals. When exercising on the simulator, two types of load are possible: adjustable and unregulated. You can control the load on steppers, which, in addition to two pedals, also have handrails, as well as a computer. He, in fact, helps to adjust the cadence. On such simulators, you can find a device for measuring the heart rate.
Step 3
A simpler option for training is a mini-stepper. It does not have handrails, and a computer is also not provided on this model. There is only a counter that shows the number of steps taken, time and calories burned. The pedals of such simulators can be interdependent and independent. In the second version, the trainee has the ability to adjust the load for each leg. With an interconnected pedal stroke, there is a greater stress on the joints, but such steppers are easier to use.
Step 4
It is safe to use the stepper even if there are no handrails on it. But many experts note that the presence of handrails on the simulator helps to work out not only the muscles in the legs, but also the entire shoulder girdle. A stepper with expander handles can be considered an intermediate option for homework. It will take up little space, be inexpensive and use the maximum amount of muscles during exercise.
Step 5
In order for training on the stepper to bear fruit, you need to do it correctly. Every workout should start with a little warm-up that will warm up the muscles. For those people who have not been engaged in physical activity before, you need to start exercises on the stepper from 5-7 minutes, gradually increasing the time until the workout lasts 30-40 minutes. Experts say that to lose weight on a stepper, you need to do at least one and a half hours a week. It can be either 2 workouts of 45 minutes each, or daily exercises. Moreover, it is noted that short, but constant workouts are as effective as hourly sets. Therefore, the optimal complex of training on the stepper is considered to be daily classes of 15-20 minutes. After them, you must definitely do a stretch.
