Just after my son was born I decided I needed to lose weight, to be honest I'd never lost the weight I put on while pregnant with his (now) four year old sister so now was my chance to put things right. I don't *do* the gym so needed to buy myself some equipment I could use at home, preferably finding some bargains as me and exercise don't get on so I didn't want to lay out a huge amount of money only to have it all sitting there neglected after a couple of weeks when I got bored.  This step was and wasn't a bargain; it was because the price had been drastically reduced in a New Year sale, it wasn't because £50 is still more than I should really have paid for a plastic ..  Read the complete review

Many years ago now I joined a step aerobics class, there was my friend and me and for some reason we really did enjoy it, however the instructor only ran the class for a small number of weeks and then that was the end of that. We took up running but of course, when the winter months came we stopped as it was slippy under food and dark and so I have brought some fitness equipment for the home as well as using the Wii! One of my latest purchases is a Fitness Mad Step Aerobic Step. I started looking for the step in the Argos catalogue as I thought this was the cheapest bet but they were coming up quite expensive, they were all well known brands as well ...  Read the complete review

This is 110cm x 41cm x 11cm and can be placed on the floor of the living room for you to do your step ups and downs when your working out to music. It ...  Read the complete review

Following various strict training programmes has its benefits from time to time, but ultimately you need to get up and do the exercise yourself. Simple pieces of equipment such as this step can make a huge difference when it comes to making the extra little bit of effort, and there are a few products like it on the market. This step is quite basic in appearance, roughly a metre long and deep enough to easily place your feet on with a small amount of space in front of and behind them when you're stood on it. The idea is to step on to and then off of the step at a predetermined pace and number of reps in order to do aerobic exercise, get your heart pumping and ...  Read the complete review

Fitness Mad Studio Aerobic Step Working out has always been a important part of my life. Since I was a child I loved to do sport and just being active. I always enjoyed the satisfied feeling after sporting. I think it's important that all people do some kind of sport as it improves the way you feel and also the way you look.
