Cranking the motor is what you do every morning when you start your car silly.

Rent a compression tester from Autozone, should be like 40 bucks but you get it all back when you return it.
1- Take out your spark plugs
2- pull the fuel pump fuse (fuse box inside car)
3- Screw the tester into the number one cylinder
4- Put the accelerator all the way to the floor, and crank the motor for a few seconds.
5- Record the PSI reading for that cylinder
Repeat steps 3-5 for each cylinder and compare your numbers. They should all be within 10% of each other.
As for a leakdown, you're probably better off to take it to a shop. But, run the compression test first, that can tell you a lot.
