1. The structure of the hydraulic resistance stepper is relatively simple. The bottom is an I-shaped base, and the front price is a T-shaped column. The active shaft of the pedal is installed at both ends of the crossbar on the T-shaped. A hydraulic shock absorber is connected, which produces a resistance effect when used.


2. The position of the active axis of the hydraulic resistance stepper pedal is fixed, and the toes of both feet are always in the same position, more similar to the conventional stepper action.


3. The structure of hydraulic stepper is more flexible, and there are various forms such as up and down stepping type, left and right inclination type, and climbing stepper. The pedal movement axis of the up and down stepping machine is horizontal, and the heel is straight up and down when stepping on it; the pedal movement axis of the left and right inclination type stepper is inclined to the middle. When stepping, the sole of the foot moves up and down. , can engage more muscles. The climbing stepper also uses hydraulic resistance. The difference is that when stepping on the mountaineering stepper, the sole of the foot moves as a whole, and the sole of the foot is always kept horizontal, which can reduce the pressure on the ankle.

 

4. The price of hydraulic stepper is relatively cheap, most of the products are priced below USD100.

 

5. Generally, resistance adjustment is not supported. Although some steppers are designed with resistance adjustment bolts, they only change the pedaling range and change the resistance by changing the torque, which is not a real resistance adjustment.

 

6. The hydraulic buffer of the hydraulic stepper is special. When it is used continuously for more than 20 minutes, the hydraulic buffer will obviously heat up, and the resistance will become smaller at this time, and it will take a while to cool down to restore to the best state.
