Leg Master
The Leg Master is an at-home, manually powered fitness machine that's meant to allow users to work their legs, abdominals, glutes, and pelvic muscles. Once you assemble your machine, based on the directions you'll receive in the included instruction manual, it's specified that you'll be able to use it almost anywhere while you're standing up or sitting down. Each machine comes with physical and digital workout videos, plus a wall chart and a meal guide that may help you boost your metabolism.

How to Use (Step by Step)
- Assemble Machine
Your Leg Master machine will come in a few pieces, so the first thing you'll need to do is consult the included manual to find out how to put it together. This will require some light physical work on your part, but it shouldn't be an incredibly complicated process.
- Choose Location for Machine
Once your machine has been assembled, choose a location for it. This location can be either indoors or outdoors, as long as you can place the machine on a flat surface. The bottom of each machine contains padding that will help keep it from scratching the floor, and its pedals are also raised, but if you're still worried, you can place a yoga mat underneath it.
- Step Onto Machine
Next, after making sure that you're wearing suitable athletic footwear and socks, hold onto the handlebars of your machine and step your feet onto the pedals. Alternatively, if you feel like sitting down instead of standing up, you can sit on a chair and simply place your feet on the pedals. If you're holding the handlebars, it's acceptable to hold them with your palms up or your palms down, although most people might find the latter option more comfortable.
- Begin Workout
While sitting on a chair or standing on your machine, begin your workout by moving your legs in and out. As you do so, while keeping your feet firmly on the pedals, your legs will move back and forth on the slightly angled platforms beneath the pedals. This movement, at a nine-degree angle, will enable you to work both your inner and outer thighs. Meanwhile, having to sit or stand up straight while you perform the leg movements will help strengthen your pelvic floor and your abdominals.
- Dismount Machine
After you've used your machine for at least 60 seconds, stop moving your legs to bring your workout to a halt. If you're sitting, take your feet off the machine's pedals, and if you're standing, hang onto the handlebars of the machine and step off.
Features
- Weighs 17 Pounds
When put together, each Leg Master weighs 17 pounds, so the vast majority of people will be able to move it from place to place in their home without having problems. At its widest point, each one measures 28 inches, so your machine won't take up an excessive amount of space in any room, including a small dorm room or bedroom.
- Adjustable Handlebar
If you don't like the default height of the handlebar on your machine, you'll be able to adjust it so it rests a bit higher or lower. This will come in handy if multiple people in the same household, all with different arm lengths, will be using the machine. The padded handlebar is also detachable, which may save you storage space when you're not using your Leg Master.
- Manually Powered
You won't need batteries or electricity to operate this machine, which means you'll be able to use it in nearly any location, including outdoors in your yard. Using some fitness machines frequently will cause your electricity bill to skyrocket, but this one won't add a penny to that bill.
- Folds for Storage
You can leave your machine standing at its full height when you aren't using it, but you'll also have the option of folding it up and storing it under a piece of furniture. Similarly, you could store it in a closet while it's folded up. Its ability to be folded may be beneficial if you want to transport it away from your home in a vehicle, too.
- Downloads Included
Immediately after obtaining a Leg Master, you'll be able to download two workout videos, a wall chart of exercises, and a metabolism-boosting meal guide to help you get started. Later, these materials will arrive in a physical format, so if you'd prefer not to download anything, you'll still be able to access them eventually.
Positive Points
- Works Quickly
This at-home fitness machine has been designed to work quickly, and you may notice that your muscles feel like they've been activated after you've been using it for only seconds. Furthermore, if you engage in just a few minutes of work each day on this machine, noticing that you look or feel different within a few days is fairly common.
- May Boost Metabolism
Any type of exercise can burn calories and boost the metabolism, and a multiple-muscle workout like the one you'll get on this machine should be especially effective in that regard. If you avoid eating for at least an hour after each workout, you may be able to burn more calories than you'd otherwise be able to, as metabolism-boosting effects can hang around for that long. Paying attention to the advice in the included meal guide may also help you ramp up your metabolism and calorie-burning capabilities even more.
- Can Aid With Bladder Leakage
While women and men can benefit from using the Leg Master in various ways, there's one benefit that will mainly pertain to women. Specifically, the machine will help strengthen the muscles of the pelvic floor, which will make the bladder stronger and therefore able to hang onto liquid for longer. If you're a woman who's been experiencing bladder leakage, which is not an uncommon thing as women enter middle age, you may find that using this machine helps you control those dribbles more effectively.
Save Time
Those people who don't use an at-home fitness machine like this one will need to travel to a gym (and perhaps wait in line) to be able to use a similar machine. Once you've got a Leg Master in your possession, though, no such travel or waiting will be required, and you won't even have to waste minutes by changing out of your pajamas to work out.
Warnings
- Don't Use if Pregnant
If you're pregnant at the time you get one of these machines, you should wait to use it until later, unless your doctor has given you the go-ahead. Along the same lines, after you've given birth, you should also consult your doctor before working out on a machine like this.

I bought the leg master because I needed to do something after being sedentary during the pandemic. (being lazy). I’ve exercised my whole life and due to an ankle fusion, can’t run or do high impact anymore.
Long story short, I started feeling it start to work after about a minute. I also used my arms to get a better workout and use weights for the upper body. I recommend this machine highly!
