Health Benefits

The step movement used on the Streetstepper excercises the body’s strongest muscles (legs and buttocks) as well as integrating torso and arm muscles.
The upright position used on the Streetstepper is particularly beneficial for the spinal column as well as being easy on the wrists, as they don’t have to support any body weight. Furthermore, the gentle movement is low impact and makes no demands on the joints. This combination is simply unique!

Regardless of whether you are starting out with a new fitness regime and are maybe a little overweight, or you are already a well trained sports person and are looking for an alternative way of taking exercise in the fresh air, or looking for performance orientated training methods where, for example, differences in altitude of over 1000 metres can be achieved per hour – the Streetstepper is one of the most effective and healthy summer sport apparatuses that has ever been invented.

„I consider the Streetstepper to be an absolute sensation for orthopaedic and sport medicine reasons, because it offers the following advantages:

Homogeneous, concentric muscle exertion. No micro traumas in the musculature as caused e.g. during mountain descent. No “aching muscles”

Ideal for hip, knee and ankle joints. Gentle joint-muscle coordination training and cardiovascular training without any damaging high impact stress

Upright body position and no spinal damaging forced posture caused otherwise by cycling. This avoids neck and lumbar vertebrae problems, often suffered by sportspersons.“

“Since the summer of 2010 my son and I, Tino Mathis (DPT in private practice in Vaduz, Liechtenstein), know and use the Streetstepper Sport.

The Streetstepper is a sophisticated tool for both training and rehabilitation after injury; we have collected excellent evidence of its uses.

30 years ago I trained and treated athletes and patients on the legendary “Himmelssteige” (staircase) in Feldkirch. The desire for a training device, which allows you to simulate climbing stairs, has been long awaited – and now it’s here! I am thrilled this ingenious tool is now available to aid in therapy!

Injured spines, painful joints, muscles, and even internal organs can be trained in a low impact routine – yes, I even dare to say: It’s a type of therapy.

The Streetstepper will hold its’ own within the fields of physical therapy practice and sports scientists testing this device will soon be delivering as yet undiscovered data to the sports industry with their results.”
