Which step should I get.

[cheryllynn]

I am going to purchase 1 step and am unsure what to get. I've seen the club step on walmart.com and it looks pretty nice and isn't too expensive...aside from shipping anyway.
Or should I get the high step?
Which would get more use? So far I have't done any step yet, I ususally walk on the treadmill and do weights to a cathe video. I would like to try the step workouts however and would maybe use the step as a weight bench.
Thanx!

Cheryl~I would definitely get the Original Club Step rather then the High Step just because it is more versatile. You can use it for Step, a weight bench and also a high step by adding risers. (Although there may be somne cardio moves you may have to modify.) I think later, the High Step would be a great choice. I would also recommend Cathe's beginner workout "Basic Step" since you have never done step before. Good Luck and let us know what you decide. WELCOME!!!!

That is a tough question but if you are looking to do step aeorbics with Cathe, I suggest you buy the Club Step. That same one from Walmart is what I have too. I also have the high step from walmart and use it tons. I use the extra risers from the high step to make a tall bench with my club step. If youcould get both you would be totally set.

If you can only get one, get the club step. That will also work as a bench, just not as tall.

Club Step is much more versatile.

I wanted additional risers, which I priced at a fitness store at $25 for a pair. So, I bought the High Step at Dick's -- four risers plus the topper for $50. Kind of like the topper was free!

Just make sure that it's the longer club step with the black no-skid covering on top. If the top is all one color, it's not going to be long enough.

Thanks everyone! I think I'll go with the club step and get the high step later on.

Cheryllin, if I could just add--check ebay before you purchase from Walmart. I got mine on ebay for $40 & paid I think $20 for shipping, which was still less than Walmart's price without shipping.
