Try Our Most Popular Climber Workout Machine

Have you ever tried a mountain climber machine workout? If not, you’re in for a treat. The VersaClimber offers one of the most popular full-body workouts in the country, and we’re proud to offer it to our partners. Want to try this exciting aerobic champion for yourself? Come and visit us at Jack City Fitness to give it a whirl! 

What Is the VersaClimber Workout?

The VersaClimber machine is a piece of athletic equipment that, like a Stairmaster, stimulates a physical “climb.” It is considered an excellent form of cardiovascular fitness and is often regarded as more efficient than a standard treadmill. It also offers a low-impact workout while still training the entire body, making it an accessible and effective workout for athletes of all levels. 

Unlike the Stairmaster,  the VersaClimber workout has unique features that train both the mind and the body. The unique design of this cardio climber promotes something called a contralateral movement. When your body moves contralaterally, or in a “cross-crawl,” your body parts are forced to flow by working together. As a result, this type of movement is fantastic for your brain activity. 

The VersaClimber Beginner Workout: How to Use the Machine

The innovative design of the VersaClimber makes it straightforward to use. You begin by adjusting the machine to fit your size; this might mean moving the handles manually or adjusting the tension on its screen. You can also use the screen to select workout options. Once this is ready, you can strap the pedals to your feet, grab the handles, and start stepping away. 

What Are Some VersaClimber Benefits?

There are lots of great VersaClimber benefits, but we’ve listed some of our favorites:

• It’s a Full Body-Workout

With the VersaClimber, muscles worked are plentiful—your whole body benefits from a sesh!

• It’s Low-Impact

The VersaClimber is a great way to get full-body intensity without all the impact. 

• It’s Great Cardio

This machine is such great aerobic exercise, some people call it the “cardio climber!”

• It Feeds the Mind

As we mentioned, this machine was designed to produce “cross-crawl” movements—and they’re great for your brain.

• It Works With You

The flexibility of the VersaClimber workout lets it fit into other routines, like a HIIT cycle. Some of our partners even do a little climbing “burst” at the end of their gym sesh for some final heart-pounding action. 

Seeking a VersaClimber Alternative?

Not sure if the VersaClimber workout plan is right for you? Some athletes ask us what we prefer: rowing machine vs. VersaClimber. In truth, we find the two machines so different in practice that it’s hard to compare.

For those who haven’t tried one, a rowing machine is designed to mimic the activity of rowing a boat, just like a VersaClimber imitates the act of mountaineering. Unlike the VersaClimber, a rowing machine is horizontal. Like a climbing machine, it offers athletes a full-body aerobic workout.

Different athletes will naturally prefer different types of equipment depending on their own experience, physicality, and interests. Come see us at Jack City and we can help you find the right routine for your needs. It might be rowing, it might be climbing, or it might be something else entirely.
