The internet is rife with weight loss strategies, and one of the latest tools growing in popularity is the stair climber machine.
Influencers like Ariane (@ari.gyms) have shared impressive weight loss results from incorporating the gym machine into their routines.
The content creator recently unveiled snippets of her weight loss transformation on TikTok, during which she lost an impressive 1st 5lb.
A video tracking the fitness fan’s progress revealed tremendous results after just three months.

In one video, Ariane shared a clip of herself using the machine, adding that she lost nine kilos (1st 5lb) in the caption.
In a separate post, she compiled weekly videos tracking her progress, showing how her body became gradually toned over three months.
The user stressed that “consistency is key” when using the stair climber machines, and she is not the only person who has successfully lost weight with the equipment.
Social media is flooded with videos of gym-goers getting their steps in.
Health bodies state that equipment like the Stairmaster can burn between 180 and 260 in just a 30-minute session.
The actual calorie burn, however, will vary depending on the individual’s body weight and how intensely each person tackles their workout.
Naturally, a more vigorous climbing pace will result in a high-calorie burn compared to a gentler session.
It offers a unique combination of aerobic exercise and strength training in one machine, making it an efficient tool for cardiovascular fitness and muscle building.
Unlike treadmills or bikes which focus primarily on cardio, it requires a climbing motion. This activates major muscle groups in the legs, core and glutes.
