APEXUP10lbs/Pair Adjustable Ankle Weights for Women and Men, Modularized Leg Weight Straps for Yoga, Walking, Running, Aerobics, Gym

I was looking for a pair of ankle weights which would be both heavy but also scalable so could be used at a lower weight. found this firm and the result is very good. weight is achieved by sachets filled with some kind of metal grains, each located in one of the pockets around the ankle weight. overall weight is one of the heaviest available, removing and re-installing is quick and easy, still remains to see how the sachets will survive over time.

Just to make sure there is no confusion. Each ankle weight is five pounds. So that is two ankle weights that each weigh 5 pounds for a total of 10 pounds. Now that's out of the way, these weights are good. Immediately after we received them we did a lower leg workout and we had no complaints. The last set of ankle weights we bought immediately started leaking sand everywhere before they were even used. These do have sand, but the sand is in a plastic covering inside the ankle strap. there are five bags with sand and each one weighs 1 pound each. This way you are not stuck with 5 pounds, but you can take off a pound or 2 or 4 to whatever you are comfortable and able to do at the time. Overall a good buy for someone wanting to elevate their lifting game.Pros: comfortable, able to take weight out of ankle pouch, durable.Cons: none at this time. Will update when when one is found.

My PT uses these and they stretch out my lower back (I use with a larger pool noodle to float) and in 30 min, my back was stretch and felt so much better that I decided to buy these and use when I’m not doing aquatic therapy. Made a huge difference in pain reduction!

I purchased these weights to wear in my water aerobics class. They are perfect!! I just started out with 2 pounds for each leg and can really feel the difference. In a few weeks I'll add more weight. I love that I can control the amount of weight! So far they have held up very well in the pool.

These weights are easy to use with the velcro strap, along with the individual weight packets. I use the weight straps during my physical therapy exercises to help strengthen my upper thighs and glutes.

Got them for physical therapy. I haven't weighed them, but they felt like more than 5 pounds each, which is a good thing.

Pretty easy to remove and add weights, sometimes it’s difficult to get it to stay on my legs

I am taking PT for my knees. They have been putting something similar to an ankle weight around my leg just above my knee to do Clams. The ones I bought are very well made and have the versatility to change the weight as you need. Unfortunately I need these to go above my knees so the Velcro strap just needs to be longer, so I returned them. For ankle or wrist weights they are amazing!
