Stair climber
Step on while the stairs are still, then start slow. A light touch on the rails is only for balance.

- 1Take a full step. The whole foot lands, heel included.
- 2Stand tall. Don't fold onto the console.
- 3If the hands start carrying you, slow the steps.
Easy to miss: Stamping on the toes, or leaning so hard the legs do little of the work.
