Check out the mountain simulator that I made. It is 14 inches tall of pure step up-step down, quad burning bliss (probably should have chose a word other than "bliss") I think that I am going to name it "Brush Heap Mountain".

I did 150 step-ups per leg last night. I liked the work out very much, it got my heart rate in the range that I wanted and my lungs were proud of the extra air in the room. It also makes you pay attention to balance because it is a little "tippie".

Eddie, I think that if you do enough step-ups we can call it Brush Heap sr.
