Review on EVERYMILE Adjustable Ankle & Wrist Weights Set For Strength Training & Fitness - 2 Pack With 1-10 Lbs Range, Perfect For Gym, Running, And Physical Therapy by Zack Block

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Comfortable to wear, washable, strong velcro strap

These neoprene wrapped ankle weights are a nice change over the old nylon or canvas versions that I'm used to have. The neoprene feels pretty good against the skin and I like that it's washable after removing all the weights.I weighed each ankle weight and each was exactly 5 LBS. However I did not find a necessity to weigh each of the 5 individual weights but would expect them to weigh an ounce or two below 1 LB each, hence 5LB with neoprene wrap for each ankle. Each individual weight did contain some type of metallic material enclosed in a nylon pouch as a simple magnet test confirmed.The weights themselves are comfortable to wear on the ankles; they even fit my skinny ankles snug. A word of advise, I would wrap the strap around your ankle leaving the open side toward you toes to allow for more flexibility and comfort when walking or flexing your foot upward. The velcro straps were plenty long and at 2 inches wide, provided a tight grip.The only negative, is that the neoprene and individual weights do smell like oil. Also, the threads at the end of the velco strap were frayed, but after melting them with a lighter, it was all smooth and again and should prevent future threads from separating.

Pros
  • ‎Velcro
Cons
  • May cause strain and injury to ankles or wrists if it is not secured properly, which can be a risk factor during physical activities
