FIND OUT MORE ABOUT STEP TRAINING

Step training is part of what we call Fitness training. It involves performing exercises on a step .

It’s a fast-paced,aerobic workout that ultimately boosts endurance.

As well as getting exercise, step is an excellent sport for strengthening the lower body. The generally toned step and arm sequences build up the muscles of the glutes, thighs, calves and arms. You’ll have no trouble losing weight and having fun at the same time ..

Here are just a few of the benefits of step training:

  • Improved cardiovascular fitness: Step training is an activity that works the heart and lungs, helping to improve cardiovascular capacity. Regular practice of the step strengthens your cardiorespiratory system.
  • Muscle strengthening: Step training exercises many of the body’s muscles, particularly the legs, buttocks and lower body. By moving up and down, you strengthen and tone your muscles, which can help to sculpt your figure.
  • Improved coordination and balance: Step training training requires precise coordination and good balance. By following choreography and executing movements with precision, you improve your motor coordination and sense of balance.
  • Calorie burning and weight loss: Step training is an activity that burns a significant number of calories. With regular step sessions, you can promote weight loss and fat reduction, by combining cardiovascular exercise with muscle strengthening.
  • Improved bone health: Step training is an exercise involving jumps and landings, which can help strengthen bones and prevent osteoporosis. By stressing the bones, step training helps maintain bone density.
  • Reduced stress and improved mental well-being: Like all physical activity, step training promotes the release of endorphins, the happy hormones. This can help reduce stress and anxiety and improve overall mood, contributing to greater mental well-being.

Step training is a versatile activity, accessible to all fitness levels. Whether you’re a beginner or an advanced exerciser, you can adapt the intensity of your workout by adjusting the height of the step or modifying the movements. It’s a fun and effective way to work on your fitness while having fun to the accompaniment of upbeat music.

Step training calculation method

The result displayed is expressed in Kcal and is calculated from the MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task). The MET for each activity is the result of statistical data and cannot therefore be interpreted as an exact calculation, but rather as an estimate taking into account the MET value and the ratio between the time spent doing an activity and the weight of the individual.

For example: the MET value for step training is 7 for moderate and 11 for intense. This means that a moderate step exerciser consumes 7 times more energy than a resting exerciser.

MET values for different levels of step training intensity

  • Moderate intensity step training: MET = 7
  • High-intensity step training: MET = 11

Detailed calculation formula for moderate step training

Consumption in Kcal per minute = (MET*3.5*Weight in kilos)/200

For a person weighing 70 kilos, this means: for 30 minutes:
Kcal consumption per minute = (7*3.5*70)/200 = 8.575 Kcal/mn
So for 30 minutes = 8.575*30 = 257.25 kcal for 30 minutes
