exercise is undoubtedly still popular. The leader in stepper design
and innovation is Stairmaster, the inventor of such machines as
the Stairmaster 4000, Stairmaster 4000PT, and more recently the
4400PT Stairmaster & Stairmaster 4600 stair stepper machine.
Cybex has products, which were formerly under the Tectrix brand;
know as the climbmax model 150, 200, 2000 & 3000, which are
also amongst the more popular machines. Stair stepper machines
are here to stay so be on the lookout for new design innovations
and ideas from the manufactures. This form of exercise is effective
and non-impacting which can be advantages to that of the treadmill.
