@ray666 When I'm using the Stepper I am usually slowly moving my feet up and down, sort of like I walk in real life ☹️. It's good to hear you have an upcoming appointment with your orthopedist. I do think it strengthens the feet and ankle muscles but if you have knee issues or ankle problems it may be worth a discussion with your Ortho to see if it's hurting or helping.

@johnbishop– I'll have to see how my chat with the orthopedist goes. He was set to do a TKR in June, but I opted out because I didn't want to do the at-home rehab in the summer heat. I don't have a.c. or a swamp cooler in my place. I know I'm faced with having to do something about my cranky knee. It keeps me from going all-out at PT. Rest assured, if I can do it, I'm going to make happy helpmate out of my new Sanddune Stepper! 🙂 –Ray
