Forgive me if this is a dumb question, But since using the stepper would help my legs, Does this mean it would help with me walking and possibly lead to jogging?

I don't like chocolate lol. So how long should I spend on this per session? Am I just gonna be wasteing my time using it?

Just had a look at the chain area, and I don't think it will break anytime soon, It's a woven metal cable sealed in plastic, looks quite strong

Sadly I haven't had chance to use it yet, It seem'd perfect cause it fits nicely hidden away for when I'm not using it. I will be using it tonight tho :)
