Try some least-used gym equipments

January 20, 2015

Try using exercise equipments that others usually do not use, but which may still boost your health, health experts say.

For example, what the rower and the moving stairs may lack in traffic, they can make up for in effectiveness and intensity for people willing to think outside the box.

“What’s the best piece of cardio equipment? My short answer is the one no one’s using,” said exercise physiologist Tom Holland, author of “Beat the Gym.”

Holland’s favorite under-appreciated machine is the moving stairs.

“It’s tougher than the traditional StairMaster, harder to cheat on, and usually hidden away in dark recesses of the gym,” he said.
