Step-Ups

The Official Official Rule

Place one foot firmly on the platform, ensuring your entire foot is supported. Drive through your heel and lift your body up onto the platform, bringing the trailing leg up to meet the lead leg. Step back down, keeping one foot on the platform at all times. You will do 50 reps for each leg, alternating legs, for a total of 100 reps. It hurts so good.

Suck Factor

Step ups may seem like child's play, but they're a sneaky devil in disguise. Prepare for your quads, glutes, and calves to burn like a thousand suns.

Fancy Gyms (Not Needed)

  • State-of-the-art gym equipment: One sturdy platform. That's it. You could even use a stack of phone books if you're feeling adventurous (and slightly unstable).
  • Spacious workout areas: Enough room to step up without kicking the ceiling fan or your unsuspecting dog.
  • High-quality audio and visual systems for an engaging experience: Blast your favorite workout playlist. Watch inspirational videos of mountain goats effortlessly scaling cliffs.
  • How to Train

  • Start with a manageable platform height and focus on proper form. As you progress, increase the height to challenge yourself.
  • Consult with trainers, watch instructional videos, and maybe sacrifice a protein bar to the ancient Greek god of strength, just to be safe.
  • Consider adding weight: Hold dumbbells or a kettlebell to increase the intensity and build more strength.
  • "Reach new heights, one step up at a time." - Forged (where we help you lift heavy things... and climb higher things... responsibly)
