Review
Summary |
The Lateral Twist Stepper is advertised as a piece of fun exercise equipment. It is said that if used correctly, you can create a fun and effective fitness program without ever leaving your home. The Lateral Twist Stepper is rather inexpensive, but that is used in the manufacturer’s favor by the assertion that you don't need to pay for expensive workout exercise machines. The workout begins when step on one pedal of the Lateral Twist Stepper, and then place the other foot on the other pedal—a small electronic measure system begins to calculate and display pertinent information on the equipment’s LCD screen.

|
The Lateral Twist Stepper enables you to move up and down, but also side to side as you mimic walking a flight of stairs. It is said the equipment will work for deep muscles without putting extreme pressure on bones and joints. There is no tutorial video provided on the sites that sell this product. Anyway, as you mimic the stair climbing, you apparently can use the twist action of the device to tone your buttocks and thighs.
There is adjustable resistance on the heavy duty sturdy steel construction of the stepper. Exercise bands are included to tone the upper body while you perform the twist-stepping with the lower part of your body. Oversized slip-resistant footplates and a LCD computer function that records total count, time, calories, scan, and step count are included as well.

| Information |
|
The stepping movement on the exercise equipment targets certain areas of your legs and focuses on that location; at least that is what is claimed. The Lateral Twist Stepper is claimed to be small and compact yet durable and when you are finished working out, you can tuck your Lateral Twist Stepper anywhere you want.
