can you do leg exercises?

Yes. The chair comes with a big chart of exercises and a dad. Love the chair.

You can but they are pretty light-weight. Of course you can also do more reps then they do on the video. I also love the chair, you feel very secure on it.

The chair has bands to exercise legs, however, due to my MS I am unable to move my legs and have not used the bands.

Yes, but a bit awkwardly. You need to stand over the bench, hook your foot under the leg lift bar, lean on the weights and do your curls.

Hello, yes it can be used for arm exercises. I bought the pedal exerciser for my 86 year old mother for her exercises & she loves it. Now we all use it for legs & arms. I was concerned that it would move around while using but it doesn't.

I'm going to say "no", because there are not any pads, other than the main one on the sliding plane. There is a bar that you can put on the bottom of the machine (too push off of) for leg work, and there is a rope with a loop (for the foot) that allows leg exercises.No "pads" that can be "kicked off" - if I understood your question.

Hello, I see that you posted this question 7 years ago and assume that you either have the answer or no longer have the machine. I purchased a used machine and have the same question as you, WHERE do the leg cables in the back connect to and how do you do leg exercises. Thanks, Bob

The stretching exercises probably do it all -- but ask the author, Ms Flagg. She'll know I'm sure. I just love her exercises because they get rid of all the kinks. I have really tight leg muscles from sitting all day, but they are getting better and better every time I do the DVD.

i put one foot in a handle like a stirrup and do leg presses. With your foot still in the handle you can also lift leg up toward ceiling and lower it slowly. Works great just have to make sure your foot doesn't slide out of handle.

Yes, however it requires more leg strength! A good workout but would be a little more difficult for really young ones.

I tried it yo answer the question, not if you are going to move around. If you left leg in one position may work straight. Tried wrapping around and again if don't move but the pads don't fully adhere.

Yes, you can pedal either the legs or arms in forward and reverse directions to work different muscle groups.

There are suggestions for legs while seated but they're cumbersome. The normal exercises have you standing or stepping onto the low platform you see in the picture. Just looked at the other answer and don't remember a bicycle option. I broke my wrist in a fall last year and put the chair away then,

No, quite the opposite for me. Unless there is an undiagnosed issue where this type of activity is not appropriate I do not know of issues with its use. For me, I would need more than one use to make this assumption as there may be/ are other causes for achy legs.

There is strength training. This workout is similar to the T25 workouts. You will work all muscle groups and get cardio in with each workout. There is a lot of jumping so if you have weak knees beware.

Yes, the leg and knee action are the same. There are 15 levels of resistance to choose from. I love mine!

You could but you would need a very wide round chair. No where near as responsive as a ball so probably less workout.
