Description
- Ankle weights can be a good way to help strengthen other muscles in your body as well. For instance, if you attach ankle weights to your ankles before you perform a set of pull-ups, your arms and upper body muscles will have a greater amount of weight to lift up in each repetition.
- This can therefore help to strengthen those muscles more than they normally would be strengthened through the same exercise as well.

- Tone hips, thighs and calves. Burn extra calories while aerobic conditioning. Build stamina
- Workout from home. No need for a gym membership! Total weight is split between both weights. e.g. 1KG = 2x 0.5KG, 1.5KG = 2x 0.75KG, 2KG = 2x 1KG, 3KG = 2x 1.5KG, 4KG = 2x 2KG, 5KG = 2x 2.5KG, 6KG = 2x 3KG
Whether you use ankle weights for a workout or if you just wear them while you walk for a bit of enhanced exercise, these weights can provide a number of benefits. This is because a good number of exercises require that you lift your ankles up off of the ground. They can be added to stationary exercises that you do with a machine, such as leg lifts or raises. They can also be helpful in increasing your workout when you're walking or running.
