Stair climber

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

Stair climber
  1. 1Take a full step. The whole foot lands, heel included.
  2. 2Stand tall. Don't fold onto the console.
  3. 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.

Muscles

Copper on the figure is a prime mover. The softer tone helps.
