ok so this weekend has been a massive clean up at my place, and i found a couple of sets of ankle/wrist weights... a pair of 500g weights and a 2kg pair....

what do you mob think of the benefits of wearing them non stop at home? cos i wore them all day today and i can definitely feel them working my arms and legs

Hi use them all the time in my Rehabilitation exercise programs such as rotator cuff exercises and also ware them doing Karate such as lower and inner outer and upper blocks for speed in Katas like Basa Dai and Tiki Katas and plyometric exercises weights around ankles and this is for power training.

Plyometrics.

Tuck Jumps
1. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, with arms at sides.
2. Jump up bringing knees up to chest.
3. Land on balls of feet and repeat immediately.
4. Remember to reduce ground contact time by landing soft on feet and springing into air.


cheers.

definitely gonna make your legs/arms stronger. But after a while your body's gonna adapt to the extra weight, so you'll probably have to run around your house if you wanna keep getting stronger lol.

I used to use them while boxing. Worked great!

so is it worth getting some?

yes they have given me results.

ok cool

lol you're right about trying katas with the weights on.... did a little practice of mine today.... had to jump onto youtube to remember how to do chil san eero hyung lol

there also good for side swing leg abduction for your hips.

cheers mate

Any pics of them? are they like.. glove style things?

ummm no pics, but thing a small sand bag with velcro straps.

dammit i've already lost the large ones.... had them yesterday

stupid cleaning... put something one place then it bloody disappears until you dont want/need it. then it appears out of nowhere.

Yes Velcro full of sand 1.5 to 2kg cheers
