What is Staircaster®?

Stiairmaster® is a trademark that produces staircases. StaIRMASTER® is commonly found in gym and fitness centers, originally encountered market at the beginning of 80. The original Staircaster® was a step-horned belt that worked similarly to the escalator; The stairs turned constant movement to imitate walking or running up, and the speed could change to provide different levels of resistance during training. Since then, the Staircaster® has created various and advanced staircase models, as well as other fitness equipment, although machines similar to the original model are still used to this day. Platforms move independently, allowing each leg to move at their own pace. The platforms are lifted from the ground to allow moving down and up, and the platformers are connected to the shoulders that are attached to the central point inside the machine. Resistance is controlled by adjusting the computer system that controls the speed system speedchain inside the machine. The machine frame extends forward and the hips of the user to provide strength and support. The user can also grasp the stability rails during exercise.

Stiairmaster® today has a much smaller track than earlier models, and a computer system attached to the machine is much more advanced. Such a machine measures burned heart rate and calories and other functions that differ according to the model. Some models are now equipped with LCD screens that are able to be connected as a TV, so the user can watch programs to run over time. Some models also have water bottle holders and other equipment.

Since the first hit the market, R® staircases have made copies, some much cheaper and not nearly so solid and some were built as direct competition for the original. Today, the company is owned by Nautilus, Incorporated that produces other exerciseMachines that may or may not bear the name and form of Stairmaster®. The original machines focused on leg muscles, especially calves and thighs, although they also provided cardiovascular exercises at higher speeds. The use of the machine was common among athletes, especially runners and skiers who commonly use these muscles to participate in the appropriate sports.
