Step Height

[StaceyL]

I just did the Legs and Glutes from KPC with a makeshift step. Are the steps they use in that DVD 10 inches in height. I know they take out a step in the middle, so that takes off 2 inches right?

I believe they sometimes use the High Step at 10" and sometimes at 12" in L&G. You can tell by counting the risers: the platform itself is 4" thick, and each riser adds 2" to that.

Watch your knees! I try to keep it at 6 inches.

We're talking about using it for step-ups (not regular stepping) and for sit-and-stand squats. 6" wouldn't do much for either of those (though it would make 'sit-and-stands' really tough! Especially on the knees!;-) )
