Anyone who has watched exercise competitions like The Biggest Loser has seen the amazing Jacob’s Ladder exercise machine in action. It is one of the best self-powered machines available from Sportsart, and one of the top rated cardio machines available for purchase today.

Unlike the standard treadmill or Stairstepper, the Jacob’s Ladder provides an all over type of workout. Not only does it provide an excellent cardiovascular workout, it also works a host of muscle groups at the same time. This wonderful machine from Sportsart delivers the opportunity to work the legs, arms, core, shoulders and back muscles, all at the same time.

With a treadmill, you walk or run on an electrically powered belt. You can control the speed, and are usually limited by preprogrammed routines as far as the grade of incline the machine will produce. It can provide a good cardiovascular workout, but only if you choose to use it to its ultimate level of use. With a Jacob’s Ladder, there are no programming, no grade adjustments for more intense workouts, and not even electricity. You determine how far your workout will take you, and only your endurance will determine how long you will work out, not some digital timer.

With the Jacob’s Ladder from Sportsart, you are literally climbing a ladder, set at a 40 degree angle for an optimum muscular workout. The machine is self-powered, which means that as long as you keep moving, the machine is operating. You stop, and it reverses to deposit you onto the floor. One of the most important things to remember when you work out is your posture. Any deviation from a proper posture, and you risk injuring your back or other muscle groups because of the strain. This is not an issue on this exercise machine.

Even on the best Stairmaster, the temptation is there to alter your posture by leaning down, this does not happen on this machine. With the machine’s track built at a 40 degree angle, there is no leaning down. And, unlike a Stairmaster, this machine from Sportsart allows you to use both feet at the same time. To use, you simply climb the ladder. Each step rotates the rungs downward, and you just keep climbing. To increase the speed, you just move faster, and to challenge yourself, stay near the top where the angle is the sharpest. It is just that simple.

All of your body gets a thorough workout: your arms and shoulders as you reach for the next rung, your legs continually pump their way up the summit, tightening your core as you climb. There is no better all over workout available by machine today.

And, because it is completely self-powered, there is no need for a cord or outlet to be near the machine in order to use it. This makes it a very versatile machine for the home and the gym because it can be placed anywhere there is room for it. A good low impact machine for all age groups.

Everyone wants a good exercise workout for their money. At gyms, the most popular machines offer good cardiovascular workouts, but do not work all of the muscle groups you need at the same time. In fact, most of them concentrate on one group at a time, and it is mostly the legs or the core. With this new machine, you get the whole package, with lower impact and less strain on the more delicate back muscles, making it the perfect choice for burning calories and strengthening your body at your own pace.
