XN8 Aerobic Step For Stepper Plastic-Non Slip-Lightweight-Weight Loss - Cardio-Exercise - For Home-Gym - Workout-Fitness - Training Equipment - Routines

This product has been used in the past and will be used for a long while again as part of my flexibility and mobility routine; a great product, delivered well and works as described.

Brought these so I could make my stepper that little bit higher and bit harder to use. Very pleased with these

Negatives:The description does say it's steel, and the bars are. The pivot block is only plastic though, although it's pretty thick and tough plastic. I've rated it 4 stars because of this, because I can see it being the weak point in the construction.Because of the angle you have to pull on the centre bar, the front (pivot) tends to lift off the ground when you're stretching, and inevitably that's going to put more stress on the (plastic) pivot block. Videos online suggest this isn't unusual. If you're careful about how you pull on the centre bar then you can mostly stop this happening, so just work with it.Also be warned that you need a *lot* of floor space when you're using this. You need 2m front-to-back and side-to-side. Less than that and you're going to have real problems. Check you've got enough room to use it.Positives:The foam didn't look that thick, but it's actually pretty comfortable on the ankles. I don't have any knee pain either, which has been something of an issue for me with wide-leg stretches using my bodyweight.The centre handle also lets you pull your body forwards to stretch back and hamstrings, which is good.And it folds up neatly. Unlike full-on machines, this is something you can just put in a corner and it occupies basically no space.Basically, this just does what it's supposed to, and for not too much money. For anyone needing to work on kicking or just generally improving hip flexibility, this is a nice bit of kit.

The thing is very poor quality, on top of.that I tried to return it and they want me to pay for the shipping. Avoid buying this product, even the box has spelling mistakes.

It does what it says on the tin but needs to be heavier at the joints. The more you pull on the leaver, the higher the product raises into the air. I had to use tins of beans to weight it down.

Cheapest one out there and the build is strong and well made and easy to use

How amazing to be able to raise my stepper.Bboth the risers and the stepper are excellent products.

I’m not very flexible, I can’t do splits. So this is effective for me.If you can do splits then this won’t have any effect on you. My friend manages splits and the handle got in the way for her to stretch more because she reached the equipments limit
