THERABAND Ankle Weights, Comfort Fit Wrist & Ankle Cuff Weight Set, Adjustable Walking Weights for Cardio, Home Workout, Ankle Strengthening & Physical Therapy, Green 1.5 lb. Each, Set of 2, 3 Pounds

Wow!!! I am a carpet cleaner and work actively every day. My nutritionist has been urging me to exercise for months now. "Too tired after I work" I said. Now I have incorporated exercise with my physical work. Every time I work it's like I am in an aerobics session for hours. Get this now and use them for greater health. TIP: Don't go too heavy too fast. Get the 1 pounders and try them out first. I am giving my self at least 6 months before graduating to the 2.5 pound weights on my legs. (Yes, I wear weights on my legs and arms at the same time, Holy Cow!!) Here's a hint: The place I feel these bands working most is NOT my arms and legs! It's my core (which is how we say 'fat stomach' today!) I wear them 8 to ten hours a day, every day!

I wanted ankle weights to help me lose weight and tone while I walked. I had a set of very, very old ones, so when these arrived I was very pleased. They are colorful, they fit well, they are well made, easy to put on and take off. The strip which adheres to the body of the weight it flexible yet sturdy. The body of the weight is very comfortable. There's no chaffing or rubbing. I've used them almost everyday since I received them, which has been about a month now. I am very happy with my purchase.

I use this at the clinic to help rehab lightly my patients extremities or help add resistance when working on strengthening and increasing ranges of motion of the shoulder, elbow, wrist, ankles, knees, hips. It has a strap that holds up well and the weight is light enough to add minor resistance without increasing discomfort. Only drawback is that the fabric will retain the sweat and oils of anyone using it and it is hard to clean it and have gotten new ones with disposable plastic wraps to ensure that patients do not have to worry about transferring anything to the next patient or being exposed to anything.

Purchased these for wrist weights to be used in conjunction with weighted MMA Gloves. Fits my wrist VERY well and VERY comfortable. Wrist is about 9 inches around with cuff of glove. After adjusting Velcro I still have Velcro adjusting room left if wrist were larger. Inside cuff weight is soft terry cloth like material. Velcro attaches snug for shadow boxing workouts. Does not slide around on wrist. Does not loosen. VERY PLEASED with material and quality of stitching. Appears to be something that will last.

Thought product was 2 - 3lb weights, in fact they were 2 - 1.5lb weights for a total of three pounds. Not what I wanted.

I've got kids (8 & 11 yrs) that do karate. Part of the sport requires being light on their feet for their matches. These are comfortable enough to wear on their ankles for long periods running around the house, jumping rope even and serve their purpose well. When they take them off they feel like their kicks are 10 times faster, much like a batter when they take the weighting ring off their bat before stepping up to the plate.

I love the option of toning my arms while I clean or do some light-workouts like walking because I hate weight-training. With these weighted wrists bands, it takes the work out of it since all you have to do is put them on. I have very small wrists (approx. 5.75" in diameter) and I was still able to get a snug fit because of the velcro.I got the 3 lb (2 x 1.5 lb) option, and found I was able to sustain a brisk, inclined walk on the treadmill for a little over an hour with minimal problems. The terry cloth on the inside is soft enough that it didn't rub and irritate my skin. I did have to be careful to hold my arms in such a way to keep them from bopping and pulling my skin.I give them 3 stars despite how satisfied with the product because of the bulk. Each cuff is about 1" - 1.25" thick, which can get in the way if you're prone to keeping you're arms at your side. Maybe if they would have used a denser filler, they could have eliminated a large percentage of the bulk.

I bought the 1 1/2 lb. weights to wear on my ankles during my long walks, a strategy to build bone mass since a recent bone scan showed I have osteoporosis. The first day I wore them, I barely noticed them. I did feel some muscle fatigue when I wore them again the next day but I take that as a promising sign. I loosened the Velcro strap a little for a more comfortable wear.
