Frank Zane LEG
BLASTER TM
Forged from heavy 11
gauge steel, the Leg Blaster
(U.S. Patent #
4986536) gives you
the benefit of all versions of squatting while reducing stress
on lower back and knees: full or parallel squat, front squat,
hacks, sissy squat, plus standing calf raises, even lunges.
Squatting is the best
exercise for developing the thighs and building lower body
strength. But aside from the pain of holding the barbell
on your shoulders, heavy squatting is hard on the knees and
lower back and will enlarge the buttocks and waist. Now it
is possible to develop your legs without having to endure the
discomfort of barbell squats.
 The
harness fits over your shoulders, weighs 25 pounds, is
comfortably padded at body contact points, 43 inches long
from tip to tip and has a stabilizing latch for easy connection
to the rack, preventing tipping while loading with either
regular or Olympic plates (not included). The side weight
bearing arms of the harness angle downward giving you a lower
center of gravity, making it easier on knees and low back.
You’ll find it safer and more enjoyable to build, shape and
define your legs.
The Leg Blaster
rack holds the harness while you load it.
The harness is engineered to hug your ribcage when you
squat with your upper body in an erect position, making it
unnecessary to use a lot of weight to get to get results.
Even though the unit is very strong, it is not necessary (or
possible) to use much over 200 pounds when squatting in this
fashion. The best I’ve done is 10 reps with 180
pounds. I’ve been squatting exclusively with it for over
20 years.
Your hands are free while
squatting so you hold on to the balance bar to prevent
unbalanced crooked reps. You stand on the secure footplate,
making the rack entirely free standing and there is no need to
bolt it to the floor. It’s compact size (32 by 42
inches) allows you to fit it into the most crowded gym.
And it’s easy to put
together, there are only 3 bolts to attach: Using two 3/4 inch
wrenches, first attach the balance bar in the lower hole if your
are shorter, or the upper hole if you are taller than 5 foot 9
inches. Next, slide the vertical member over the rear
vertical tube, insert the two bolts and tighten. Put the
end caps on the rack, load it up and it’s ready to use!
It’s great
for calf raises too. You will not find a better way to
squat or do standing calf raises.

Typical users
write:
“I want you to know how much I am enjoying the Leg Blaster.
After knee surgery years ago, I found myself unable to do
conventional barbell squats. I’ve made tremendous strength
gains in the past few months using the Leg Blaster as part of my
recovery. The added safety of being able to support
myself with the balance bar is great for me since I work out
alone. My wife is also using the Leg Blaster and loves it.
She has had back problems in the past, but no more with the Leg
Blaster. Thanks for a great product.”
"After training with the Leg Blaster several weeks I am very
pleased with its performance. The advantages that I see with
the Leg Blaster over the barbell in doing squats and calf raises
are: 1. I am experiencing less strain in my lower back when doing
squats. I am a tall person with thin hips (6' 2", 193
pounds). I've noticed that when I perform my heaviest work
sets with the traditional barbell I have some trouble keeping my
back straight and not leaning forward. I make a conscious
effort to watch my form but the heavy weight makes it difficult to
not lean forward when I am coming out of the squatting position.
This was placing some strain on my lower back. The Leg
Blaster has allowed me to resolve this problem due to the method
in which the weight is distributed. 2. I find it easier to
go deep with the Leg Blaster versus the barbell and get a great
pump in my thighs. 3. The balance bar on the Leg Blaster
rack assists me with keeping my balance. I am careful not to
use the bar to pull myself up when coming out of the deep
squatting position, eliminating cheating. Also the bar can
serve as a "spotter" if I were struggling to come out of
the squat into the upright position. 4. I like doing
standing calf raises with the Leg Blaster as opposed to the
barbell. I am able to keep my balance with the Leg Blaster
better than with a barbell, especially when using a calf block.
Overall, I am most satisfied with the purchase. Also, I
believe that I should be able to squat many years into the future
without the concern for lower back stress".
"Rarely have I been as pleased with a product as I am with
your Leg Blaster. it is all you claimed it to be and, after
5 months my only problem seems to be finding a time when others in
the family are not using it."
"Just a word about how much I like the Leg Blaster that I
recently purchased. I am 67 years old and have been weight
training for 50 years. For the past few years, I have hated
to do squats and have noticed a real weakening of my legs. I
was apprehensive about purchasing a Leg Blaster without actually
seeing one, but after using it a few times I am very pleased.
I actually look forward to doing squats now because they don't
hurt my knees or back using the Leg Blaster and I'm sure I will
continue the exercise as my legs continue to regain their
strength. Thank you for this innovative piece of exercise
equipment." |
