The OptiGym Stairway brings effective stair training and a first-class workout experience into your own home. Its sturdy construction, wide steps and versatile training programmes make it the centrepiece of any home gym for users who value quality and want to invest in their own wellbeing.
Natural stair-climbing effectively works the glutes, as well as the front and back of the thighs, engages the core and builds endurance. Training using your own body weight raises your heart rate without the impact typically associated with running. Stair walking also puts stress on the joints, but the nature of the movement differs from running and walking on flat ground.
Listen to a podcast or catch up on your favourite series whilst improving your fitness. You can exercise at home regardless of the weather or gym opening hours. A speed range of 15–164 steps per minute offers options ranging from gentle general fitness training to challenging intervals. Pre-set training programmes add variety, and the clear display helps you track your progress.
If you’re tracking the number of floors climbed on your sports watch, the step counter won’t usually increase this reading, as the actual altitude remains the same. Your training will still improve your fitness, even if the watch’s floor counter remains static.
A sturdy steel frame, NSK bearings and a weight of 190 kg provide a stable foundation for your training. Wide, 560 mm steps, non-slip step surfaces and long handrails support controlled movement. Heart rate sensors on the handrails make it easy to monitor your exertion level, whilst the water bottle holder keeps your drink within easy reach.
In addition to the stop button on the control panel, safety is enhanced by two sensors. An infrared sensor at the bottom of the stairway stops the machine when the user approaches the bottom. A sensor underneath the machine helps to prevent hazardous situations involving users becoming trapped beneath it.
