Lebrecht was the younger son of Prince Viktor Amadeus of Anhalt-Bernburg (1634–1718) from his marriage to Elisabeth (1642–1677), daughter of Count Palatine Friedrich of Zweibrücken. Lebrecht received a careful education, which concluded with the Grand Tour. In 1683 he took part in the Great Turkish War together with Prince Johann Georg II of Anhalt-Dessau. In 1689 the raised Anhalt troops became imperial property, and with them Lebrecht also moved into imperial and later Hessian service. He fought in Hungary and on the Rhine.
