How does the Movens UNI LEG?

The Movens UNI LEG was developed by sports scientists and therapists. UNI LEG is a training device that works with a special isodynamic hydraulic resistance system and does without weight plates, compressor and motor resistance.

The intensity of the workout can be controlled by two knobs (for flexion and extension resistance) on the right and left. The opposing force can be additionally increased by increasing the speed or the use of force. The mode of action of the UNI LEG is based on water resistance. This protects the joints, muscles, bones and ligaments from overloading. The training can be interrupted at any time without counterpressure.

Since the UNI LEG is a combination device, agonist and antagonist are trained concentrically on one side alternately. The resistances can be set separately for both legs in both directions of movement, resulting in three different training options:

  • Unilateral: Stretching and bending of only one leg
  • Parallel movement: Stretching and bending both legs at the same time
  • Opposite movement: Stretching and bending of both legs at the same time opposite to each other
