Question
will excercising on a mini stepper tone and shape your glutes?  

Answer
Hi,

It depends on:
- your fitness level.
- the actual machine you are using.
- how much effort you put into the workout.

You will get some benefits for your glutes if you haven't been exercising.  After a while, the tone/shape benefits will plateau, and you'll have to do something else if you want more toning.

Hope this helps.
