Handlebar controls. The control buttons for training modes are placed on the handles of the stepper. With their help, you can change the load without stopping the training. However, the control options in each model may be different.
— Expanders. Steppers can be equipped with mounts for expanders. This solution allows you to increase the number of exercises available with the machine: training the arms and upper body provides a complex load — after all, the stepper itself loads only the legs. In most models
, expanders are included.
—
Torso twist (twister). To turn the body, a hinged platform is used, which is called a twister. And so that the user does not lose balance, the machine usually provides a stand with handrails. Exercises with twists of the torso allow you to strengthen the muscles of the back and abs.
—
Fan. The stepper has its own fan. This feature is useful for cooling during intense workouts, especially in warm weather.
—
Bottle holder. The presence of a special stand in the design of the stepper, on which you can put a bottle or a glass. Thus, you will always have a supply of water at hand, and to replenish its amount in the body you will not have to be distracted from training with the machine.
—
Colour screen.... The presence of a colour screen in the design of the stepper. This function does not affect the main features of the stepper. However, such displays are considered more convenient and pleasant to view than monochrome ones.
— Bluetooth. The presence of a Bluetooth wireless module allows the stepper to be synchronized with the user's smartphone, tablet or laptop/PC. Thanks to data synchronization, the user will be able to control the results of training in a convenient form. Additionally, Bluetooth wireless communication can be used to download new training programs to the machine's computer, and synchronize with the heart rate monitor via the ANT protocol.
— USB port. USB can be used to connect heart rate sensors and other specialized accessories, to play music and/or video from external media, to update the firmware using the same media, etc.
— mini-Jack 3.5 mm (Aux). The audio jack is designed to connect an MP3 player or smartphone/tablet and output sound from devices to the speakers built into the simulator.
— Speakers. The presence in the design of the stepper's speakers. Music can be played through them, as well as various service messages.
— Tablet stand. Allows you to securely and safely mount a tablet with almost any screen size on the machine. Thanks to this, the user can enjoy watching TV shows or movies directly during training.Dimensions of the equipment are assembled and ready for operation. It is important to note that in reality, more space is needed for comfortable and proper operation of the simulator.
