StairMaster

Each step is 8" high, 9" deep, and 22" wide, delivering a consistent, weight-bearing stride that loads the glutes, quads, and calves with every rep. At 24 to 162 steps per minute, the range spans casual aerobic conditioning all the way to high-intensity tactical training. Mounted at the front is StairMaster's OpenHub™ 15" embedded touchscreen console — a full-featured display with 10 standard workout programs, Polar-compatible wireless heart rate, and three certified fitness tests including the CPAT Fire Fit Test and WFI StepMill Test. Built for commercial environments with a 350 lb user capacity and a 10 ft recommended ceiling clearance, the 8G Gauntlet is the benchmark for stair-based cardio in serious training facilities.
