Lateral Thigh Stepper

[Missklp27]

Has anyone seen this product on TV? If so have you tried it? How is it? Im just curious because it actually looks decent. I mean, all it is is a step machine in a smaller size, but its a more lateral movement. Im not a fan of the machines on tv that they sell, I beleive in the good old weights and what not. but, too me this just looks like a mini stepper like at the gym. It seems very convenient.

i was at dicks sporting goods today and they have them. i hopped on one and did not like it at all...cant be more specific, but the range of motion felt odd and it was boring even for the few minutes i was on it.;(

I have one. It is a far cry from a real stairmaster. I bought it for the lateral moves, that I can't really have on the stairmaster. Unless you have specific reasons for lateral moves it is a waste of rmoney.

So its just not as good as a stepper huh?
I thought it would be a good addition for a cardio workout for me. I would just do it in front of the tv like I do with the stationary bike.

It is not THAT bad. I do have a stairmaster too (precor) and I can get my hr up on it to the high 170's. I could never in a light year do that on the LTT -- the most I could get was about 138. But if you want a different easy cardio in your routines it's OK. Best of luck to you!
