FAQs
Frequently asked question

Is the Total Gym Leg Pulley System worth buying, and what exercises can I do with it?

Yes — it's Total Gym's most popular accessory for good reason. It unlocks a full range of cable-based leg exercises including inner and outer thigh work, leg circles, and single-leg movements inspired by Pilates. Whether you're focused on resistance training or low-impact mobility work, the Leg Pulley System significantly expands what your Total Gym machine can do.

Is the Leg Pulley System compatible with my Total Gym model, and what's included?

The Leg Pulley System is designed to attach to most Total Gym models, but compatibility can vary. Check your machine's model number before purchasing. The system includes a pair of foot harnesses for bilateral Pilates-style movements and an ankle harness for single-leg cable exercises, giving you multiple attachment options right out of the box.

What is the difference between the foot harnesses and the ankle harness included in the Leg Pulley System?

The foot harnesses are designed for bilateral movements — both legs working together — ideal for Pilates-evolved exercises like leg circles. The ankle harness supports single-leg cable work, targeting muscles like the inner and outer thighs independently. Using both attachments lets you train a wider variety of movement patterns and muscle groups effectively.

Can the Total Gym Leg Pulley System be used for Pilates-style workouts?

Absolutely. The Leg Pulley System was designed with Pilates principles in mind. The foot harnesses enable classic Pilates-inspired moves like leg circles, while the pulley mechanism mimics the feel of traditional Pilates reformer equipment. It supports both unilateral and bilateral movements, making it a great tool for Pilates enthusiasts training at home.

What muscle groups does the Leg Pulley System target?

The Leg Pulley System targets the entire lower body. You can work the inner thighs, outer thighs, hamstrings, glutes, hip flexors, and calves depending on the exercise and attachment used. Its support for both unilateral and bilateral movements means you can address muscle imbalances and improve stability alongside general lower-body strength.

How do I attach the Leg Pulley System to my Total Gym?

The Leg Pulley System connects to your Total Gym's cable system at the base of the glideboard. Attachment is straightforward and tool-free for most models. Once connected, you simply strap on the foot or ankle harness, adjust resistance by changing your incline level, and begin your exercises. Refer to the included instructions for your specific model setup.
