Pros: Needs very little space, variable resistance, targets thigh muscles

Thanks for the great review. Having been in a car accident and have so far been through 4 surgeries ( the knee is next) I've gained weight and have been looking for something I can work on without further injuries. I had been considering this but thanks to your review I'll keep looking.

This is rough on the knees for sure. I had surgery at least eight years ago on my knee and somehow, this managed to bring back a lot of the pain I felt before the surgery. It's a cute idea, I guess, but tough on the joints.

I hope you find the right workout plan for you. It's so hard to know what you will like and stick to!

Thanks for the comment :)

Wheeee! Now we all should use the MH button a little more because if I see the same 4 or 5 things there, I will scream. Then again, I never saw this on the page.

That's cool :)

Ltt lateral thigh trainer (Reply to this comment)
by normtrub
I'm quite happy with this device. I usually use a treadmill or stationary bike for about an hour a day for cardio exercise. However on cold & rainy nights when I don't feel like the walk to the gym, the LTT is a Godsend. I get out my resistance bands, do a light resistance routine & I work up a bit of a sweat, get the heart rate up to about 65% and watch the Telly for about 45min while working out with the LTT afterwards in the comfort of home. It works some thigh muscles that the treadmill & bike don't touch so there is also some variability. I do recommend it.
