The Air Climber is a "As Seen on TV" workout stepper that claims to provide a complete cardio workout simply by harnessing the resistance of the air. Its ultra compact size and light weight make it ideal for home use. A personal training DVD guided by aerobic coach Brenda Dygraf is provided.

DESCRIPTION

The Air Climber, contrary to appearances, is not new, since by the end of the 90s, a model with the same characteristics had already had some success in the United States.


Description

The Air Climber is a stepper composed of 2 steps articulated on bellows filled with air, elastic cables to train the arms, and a board offering various information such as the duration of the training session. The device is similar to other mini-steppers and uses your body's weight and movement to push air through the device's "bellows", simulating stair climbs. The air contained inside the steps thus compressed opposes a more or less high resistance. According to the manufacturer's claims, the product would allow overweight people to lose 5kg in the first 10 days of use, which appears to be a simple device that caters to novice practitioners who want to achieve quick results without tiring too much. But while the Air Climber claims to deliver quick results just by using the device, the results are otherwise different. As a result of these bad reviews, Air Climber is currently being touted on some websites as a "non-compliant" product due to the lack of actual studies. For Air Climber, this is not good news. In addition, the manufacturer fails to justify the claims it makes on its device since in all likelihood, no study has been carried out. It comes with a DVD featuring 4 workouts (guided by Brenda Dygraf, aerobic instructor in the US) and a diet plan. The set sells for around $ 100, and is currently only available on the product's official website.

BOTTOM LINE 2.5/5


The Air Climber seems to be made for beginners and may be of interest to users wishing to regain a minimum of physical shape or to get back into shape. However, to achieve a more intense cardio session, other programs are more suited to these needs.Nevertheless, this device seems, in addition to providing a training adapted to its core target, beginners, to enjoy a certain popularity with dieters.

Only its price is in our opinion prohibitive, since most of its competitors are sold half the price and that it is, neither more nor less, than a stepper. We advise you to realistically evaluate how you are going to use this device before purchasing it. And don't forget that the durability and build quality of your equipment is tied to its price and warranty. Here the warranty is only 60 days.
