If burning calories, weight loss and toned body is one of your workout goals, the stair climber gets the job done efficiently. Climbing stairs can lead to better balance, stronger bones, and improved heart health. Our Stair-climber machine provide many of the same advantages.

The stair climber is a large, vertical machine with three to four steps that constantly revolve, like the belt of a treadmill, so you can essentially climb stairs in place. Unlike a treadmill, however, you'll be challenged to lift your bodyweight as you step to the next rung of the machine. This stationary exercise machine is designed to simulate walking up stairs. It has rotating steps that let you climb stairs continuously. Stair-climber also include handles for you to hold as you move.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF  STAIR CLIMBER

Stair Climbers are worth the cost, all things considered. The convenience and health benefits of stair climber far outweigh the upfront cost it's purchasing cost.

Consider the following stair-climber benefits the next time you’re looking for a new workout.

1. Provides low-impact exercise
High-impact exercise, like running or jumping rope, can help you increase endurance and muscle strength. But it can also stress your bones and joints — including the hips, knees, and ankles — and increase the risk of injury.

Fitness beginners and people with arthritis or other musculoskeletal conditions may need to do low-impact exercises like stair-climbing. Stair-climbing workouts are easy on the joints because both feet remain in contact with a step.

2. Burns calories
The StairMaster and other stair-climbing machines provide a great calorie-burning workout. Adding StairMaster workouts to your fitness plan may help you manage your weight. You might even burn more calories during a stair-climbing session than a high-impact workout. According to the American Council on Exercise’s calorie calculator, a person who weighs 175 pounds might burn 317 calories during a 30-minute stair-climbing workout. That same person might burn 277 calories during a slow 30-minute jog.

3. Boosts heart health and aerobic fitness
Stair-climbing is an aerobic or cardio exercise that strengthens the most important muscle of them all: your heart. It can boost your VO₂ max or aerobic fitness. In a small study, researchers found that doing brief intervals of high-intensity stair-climbing helped inactive women improve their aerobic fitness.

Daily stair-climbing could also reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome, a group of conditions that increase the likelihood of heart disease. It’s been shown to help prevent atherosclerosis, a disease that can lead to a heart attack or stroke.

4. Builds muscle strength

Of course, your muscles also get a workout on the stairs. Stair-climbing workouts activate core and lower-body muscles, including the following:

Abdominals
Glutes
Hamstrings
Quadriceps
Calves
So hopping on a stair-climber can help you build trunk and lower-body strength. That’s a crucial benefit, considering that strong muscles are essential for athletic performance and healthy aging.

5. Improves balance and coordination
Exercising for better balance might not be top of mind for many people. But balance declines as we age. Working on your balance — with exercise and other activities — can help protect you from falls and other injuries down the line. And it can help you move through daily activities with confidence at every age.

Stair-climbing strengthens the core, which may lead to better balance and coordination. In one study, an 8-week stair-climbing program enhanced dynamic balance for healthy older adults.

6. Supports strong bones
Caring for your bones is important at every stage of life, especially as you get older. Age-related changes — including less bone density — can increase the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures as you age.

Fortunately, lifestyle changes can help keep your bones healthy. For example, you can add more bone-strengthening foods to your diet. You can also add weight-bearing exercises like stair-climbing to your fitness routine. Weight-bearing exercises may help prevent bone loss. They’ve also been shown to strengthen bones in people with osteoporosis.

7. Offers accessible exercise
Lack of time and resources are two of the most common reasons people don’t exercise. Accessibility is arguably one of the biggest benefits of stair-climbing. If you don’t have access to a StairMaster or another machine, use another flight of stairs — at home, in a park, or elsewhere — for your workout.

Plus, you can practice stair-climbing workouts at any age or fitness level. For example, climbing stairs can be a safe and effective way for older adults to increase daily physical activity.
