To use the Walker apparatus, hold the bar firmly with both hands and place your feet in the footrests. Keep your legs slightly bent for greater comfort. Then alternately push your legs forwards and backwards, as if you were walking on the spot. Keep your upper body still to maximize exercise efficiency and maintain good posture.
