Answer:
Numbness
in the toes and feet is a very common problem
with the stair machine and the elliptical trainer.
It is basically a lack of circulation from the
constant pressure on the feet and has nothing
to do with your shoes.
You
know how your arms falls asleep if you lean
on it for too long? The same thing is happening
in your feet and toes. I've actually encountered
this problem myself before.
There
are a few solutions to this problem.
1.
Take a quick break every 10 minutes or so just
to shake out your feet and get circulation going
again. Step off the machine to do this then
jump right back on.
2.
Lift your feet off the pedals every now and
then while you are using the machine. A few
steps off the pedals every few minutes should
do the trick. To do this, when you are pushing
down with the right foot, lift the left foot
off and wiggle your foot around and vice versa.
These
two methods should help you avoid the numbness
in your feet completely.
