20 Minute Beginner Step Workout & Strength Training | Low impact cardio

In this beginner step workout, you'll improve your cardiovascular health and build lower and upper body strength. The low impact cardio has two sets of five step moves with two strength training breaks.

Here are the five step moves that you'll do twice:
✳️ Toe taps
✳️ Basic Step
✳️ V-Step (Wide-wide, narrow-narrow steps)
✳️ Knee Ups
✳️ Hamstring Curl

Here are the two Upper Body Strength breaks:
✳️ #1: Single Arm Rows
✳️ #2: Bicep Curls

This workout can be done without the step as well. If any of the moves are too much, just march in place or do a move that feels comfortable.

Here are links to the steps that my mom and I use in the video:

This workout checks all the boxes for a good osteoporosis workout! I'm on a continual search for help with my osteoporosis. More like this please! Strength with weights and step.

Surfing through your videos to find ones that I've not done. This one was a great start to a new week. Full body workouts are so empowering! So appreciate how encouraging you are, April. Your mom summed it up perfectly at the end, "This was a good one."

I exercised along without a step - thinking of getting “the mom” step - 76 and haven’t used a step in years ! Always a good workout!

[heatherresnick]

The step makes a major difference in cardio level. Thanks!

I really like woking out with you. Exercises are not too strenuous. I have always had problem going up and down stairs. This helps me with strength and balance of going down the stairs. Wish i could work out with you guys in person.

I admit I haven't worked out in a while. But I saw Mochi in the thumbnail and he drew me in for a workout. I guess you could call him my 'purrsonal' trainer! 😅

[iknownothing-]

Wow, I finally got o the end. Thanks for another great routine.

[oliviajankovic]

I've just started with you two and can barely keep up with a quarter of it but you're both so inspirational I'm going to keep plugging away. Thank you.

[darrylschenk]

I love this new workout! Aiko never ceases to amaze me! April is always aware of what we need. Thank you! Not trying to be nosy, but can you share Aiko's age? She's such an inspiration!

[SallyLederer]

I don't have a stepper, so I improvised by stepping up on my toes for the up, up and doing mini squats for the down down. It was a good workout for my legs.
