I really like them and they help with my physical therapy as I recently had a total knee replacement. If you have small ankles though you may have to wear them over a pair of leggins or sweat pants. They work as they were intended.
I'm glad I bought this padded 10-pound set instead of the cheaper set GoFit offers, and so far, they're heavy enough. I definitely don't regret my purchase. Problem is, where do I find heavier inserts to replace these half-pound ones currently in it once I can move up in weight? I've tried those straps to attach a dumbbell to my ankle, and it wasn't very comfy. Could anyone point me at some replacement inserts?
I should have gotten the 5 lb x2 set, but regardless, they add plenty of resistance to any workout and are comfortable enough to wear throughout the day. I like that you can easily remove the weights to adjust to the perfect amount of resistance. I also REALLY like that the weights are metal as opposed to sand filled ankle weights which have a tendency to leak over time.
Comfortable, easy to take on and off, no sliding around on my ankles. I love the adjustable weight as it gives me the opportunity to increase slowly as I build more strength. Good product!
My wife just had knee replacement surgery and these were the ankle weights recommended by the physical therapist. She took most of the weight out to begin with and then slowly added weight back as her legs got stronger. She is very happy with these weights.
