Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are the dimensions and space requirements for the Jacob’s Ladder 2?
Users often ask exactly how big it is, whether it will fit through doorways, ceiling height needed, etc. (“Fits in most interior doors” at ~27.25” wide; needs ~7.5 ft. ceiling height).
How is the intensity / workout level controlled on the Jacob’s Ladder 2?
Since it’s self-paced, intensity scales with how quickly you climb; there’s no motor-driven speed preset. The waist belt and cable tension contribute to speed/resistance.
Is this machine hard on joints / suitable for rehab or low-impact workouts?
A common concern: the Jacob’s Ladder 2 is designed with a 40° angle that reduces stress on knees, hips, and back. It’s promoted as lower-impact than treadmills or stair climbers at 90°.
What maintenance is required to keep the Jacob’s Ladder 2 running smoothly?
Basic care includes cleaning the rungs, case, and side rails with mild cleaners. Do not apply grease or polish to the rungs or the black plastic runners/strips — it can make them slippery or interfere with the mechanics.
How does the digital feedback display work and what metrics does it show?
The machine offers digital readouts for: elapsed time, feet climbed, climbing rate (feet per minute), calories burned, and heart rate (via chest strap).
