I think they mean with your arms but if you want to be sure I would call your Drs office and ask the nurse but honestly I don't see That leg lifts would be a cause for worry with your pacemaker unless it is in your abdomen Good Luck

After the first 6 weeks, you can lift weights however you want. Nothing above the head is only until you heal, after that it's ok.

I had a pacemaker when I was 11. I never once thought I wasn't a 'normal kid' nor was I ever treated differently because of it. I could do everything all my friends were doing; I just happened to have a battery attached to my heart to help it work.
