Denise Austin equipment question

tinamatas · 10-28-04, 03:16 PM

I am considering adding some inexpensive cardio equipment to my weekly exercise routine and am looking into purchasing some of Denise Austin's, specifically her Phoenix Mini Stepper Plus (comes with resistance cables for upper body) and her Phoenix Manual Treadmill with Space Saver Design (comes with a walking video at The Sports Authority website). Does anyone have any experience with either of these - good or bad?

Thanks,
Tina

I don't have experience with either of these, so I'm giving you an opinion with no first hand knowledge whatsoever. I just have a feeling that you would get very limited use out of this type of equipment. I think if you want a treadmill, a higher end sturdier model is going to work better and last longer. I also think if you want to step, you would get more use and more variety from a regular step and a variety of step workouts.
