    We just used it to get a little moderate stepping everyday. kzread.infoUgkxgAz8z9Y03AXTl_xgiCmYWfRKpnpW8nYG But after a family member had some medical issues and getting into bed and out of bed (with a really high 28” above the floor matress ) we added a little fluorescent glow in the dark tape to the edges and they now can get into and out of bed safely! What a difference this little stepper has made for them. and we still use it for daily moderate exercise routine also.

    I use a 20” box with a dumbbell in same hand and then opposite hand. 20” might be a little high, but I do a lot of hiking where I have to step pretty high up on rocks higher than 20”.

    The FIRM exercise videos by Anna and Cynthia Benson put this in nearly all their videos starting in the 80s into the 90s. Les Mills started them earlier than that. Also, the errors you demonstrate can be simply the box is too tall--not so much for the individual's height, but also their strength. Working with a shorter box to build strength will allow gradual height increase and weight plate increase, even for shorter athletes.

    The dumbbells take a bit of the instability out of the movement but still a worthy substitute. I do a lot of body weight step ups with higher steps to focus on range of motion also.

    doesn't matter much. what matters is brace your core tight, focus on driving the opposite knee up while also pushing the step/box down. keep your torso tight all the time. neutral spine.

    I do this with a 25-pound kettle bell in each hand. Great exercise although the bulgarian split squat is probably a bit more efficient overall for hitting the quad.

    Its alright but id do squats first, and after squats do a compound lift that hits the hamstrings. (Romanian dl or good morning) other exercises seem solid

    The masseter muscle in our jaws indeed is the strongest muscle. But for the purpose of training, he's not wrong, glute muscle is strong AF.
