Benefits of Stairmaster
The stair machine can not only improve cardiopulmonary function and reduce fat, but also has a good effect on shaping the thigh muscle lines. The important thing is persistence. Practice three times a week for best results. This kind of equipment can not only help us lose more fat in 30 minutes, but also has a good effect on cardiopulmonary function and leg shaping.
Design principle of stair machine
The design principle of the stair machine is based on the action of climbing stairs in our daily life. Because when we do stair climbing, the quadriceps, hamstrings and gluteus maximus on the front of the thigh will all participate in the movement. However, when doing thigh stepping movements on the stair machine, the pressure on our knee joints is much reduced than when climbing stairs. This exercise is very safe and reliable for those with weak knee joints.
How to use the stair machine:
The method of using the stair machine for exercise is also very simple. Just step on the pedal and alternate your feet twice, and the machine will automatically display. Then just enter the resistance value according to the training purpose. If you just want to lose fat, you can adjust the resistance to 8-12. Keeping the time at 30-40 minutes will achieve a good fat loss effect. Keep the heart rate between 130-140/minute. If you want to improve your cardiopulmonary skills, adjust the resistance to 6-8 and persist for 20 minutes, and you will have good results. Keep the heart rate between 100-120/minute.
No matter what kind of exercise, persistence is the most important thing, so the fitness guide recommends that friends who want to lose body fat must persist in training to lose fat.
