I have a stepper from the days when that was the in thing and a video that goes with it and I could barely master the warm up section before I was so confused I would just give up and let the daycare kids jump on and off it while video played out and I kept hoping if I watched it enough I would get it. I would give the kids towels on the carpet to stand on and do the exercises with me while I used the actual stepper. This was a morning ritual .....for a very short while till I got too discouraged.
