Aerobic-steps
Once you’ve learned the basic aerobic steps, it’s time to move on to some of the more advanced aerobic steps. There are two reasons for this – first, the more steps you know, the more advanced routines you can do, and second, because this is the best way to keep from getting bored with the same old aerobics routine, day after day.
Most advanced aerobic moves still use features of the basic moves – stepping up, tapping, and turning. However, getting all of the steps in the right order is difficult. If you’re just learning a new move for the first time, feel free to do the step with incorrect posture so that you can watch your feet. After all, unless you are already completely comfortable with the aerobic steps, you can hurt yourself by tripping off the stepper.
One of the more advanced aerobic steps is called the “K step”. This is a step in which you step up onto your stepper and back off on the same side – but you will move to the opposite end of the stepper when you do. You should start the K-step standing next to the corner of your stepper, with your lead foot next to the aerobic stepper.
Start this step similar to the over the top aerobic steps, by planting your lead foot on the stepper. However, you need to move half-way up the step when you do this. Next, tap your other foot next to your lead foot, and then step down to the floor with that foot. Then, step down to the floor with your lead foot. You finish the K-step by running these aerobic steps in reverse.
Another of the more advanced aerobic steps is called the reverse turn. In this step, you are stepping up onto the bench and then back down, but turning around while you do it. In the reverse turn, you end up stepping onto the bench backward.
You should start by standing next to the bench with your lead foot closest to the bench. Step up with your lead foot so that your back is facing the front of the stepper. Then step up with your other foot to plant it on the other end of the bench so that you are standing straight and facing the back of the bench. Then step down on the other end of the bench with your lead foot so that you are on the same side of the bench, but now facing the opposite direction that you were when you started.
You can find many other advanced aerobic steps online or in an aerobic steps class. Another good way to pick up new aerobic steps is to watch videos and practice! The more aerobic steps you know, the more you can learn – and you can even make up your own!
