Kiefer Ankle/Wrist Weights

I have over 6 sets of these weights, which I have purchased over the course of the past year.... if you are considering using weighted aqua fitness training .. this is the only way to achieve weighted body resistance comfortably. I started with 1 of the (purple) 3.5 per foot and 1 of the (black) 5.0 per arm .. after 4 weeks I order 3 more sets of 5.0 - I had this idea that has worked great, what I have done is I connect 3 of the 5.0 together to make an adjustable (15 lbs) weight belt .. and I also doubled up my arms with 2 x.5.0 per arm .. with the leg weights that is 42 lbs .. I continued to work out with that weight amount in varying combinations of placements - doubling up my legs (10 lbs each) and such .. after 9 months, I ordered another set - and now about a week ago - I ordered another - NOW this is for me (and I would not suggest this for everyone) but I swim with approx 60 lbs of weights ... The effect has been dramatic , consistent and lasting .. it takes time - but swimming and weights will get you mucle tone and definition WITH low impact - .. The quality of the straps, buckles and wights (and the outer lining) is impressive .. and I still have my first set from last year (and 200 swims ago) - Color is faded - and the outer "neoprene" liner is starting to get holes, BUT they keep going .. great value for what they do .. I have invested over $200 in aqua weights from Kiefer because they are a BIG part of what has changed my life - swimming 4-5 times a week for 45 mins .. I have lost 25 lbs, blood pressure is normal and I have had almost NO back issues since I started swimming with weights .. grateful to Kiefer for their awesome products -

These weights (10#) are used by me in a pool for exercise. When I was doing aquatic therapy, these are the ones used by the facility I went to. They feel absolutely weightless in the water.

Great for weighted exercises in water

The aquatic therapy classes I attended used this same brand, they would replace them after a year due to the excessive chlorine, I expect longer use in our pool. These are so comfortable, dry to the touch pretty quickly, and they have a lot of strap for large legs, I often double them with a second set to make 10lbs per leg. I wish this brand made a 10lb version as that would be simpler to put on. :-) Quality product, I’d say commercial grade. I’ve really strengthened my legs the last few weeks using these at home.

I use these water weights for daily workouts in a salt pool. I put one pair around my wrists and one pair around my ankles and it REALLY makes a huge difference in my workouts - the extra resistance has made my arms much more defined (haven't noticed a difference in leg muscles) . It also increases the effort it takes to swim which gives me a better cardiovascular workout. The weights are also very comfortable - the neoprene is really soft and doesn't chafe the skin. My only minor complaint is that I wish I could get them a bit tighter around my wrists to avoid slippage while swimming. Having said that, I'm sure the manufacturer didn't intend them for wrist weights (although it would be nice if they manufactured some specifically for the wrists:) I use these with a pair of swimming resistance paddles and the combo gives an amazing swim workout. I HIGHLY recommend this brand of water weights: comfortable, durable and effective!

The ankle weights work great underwater, but the color fades fast. The Velcro strap is hard to strap and because when the sand is wet it drops to the bottom of the weight, so the Velcro strap becomes loose and they tend to slip down the ankle on to the foot. After the weight is wet, I have to tighten it again in the water.

Great for adding resistance to water jogging.

Shipped quickly, great quality, and stays put on leg.

Great product! Perfect for toning! I’ll get a second pair for my sister.

I like these ankle weights, good for aquafit in the water and can be used on land too. Added bonus, they can be clipped together and used as a belt! They don't take very long to dry, just overnight. One thing to note though is that they don't really feel as though they're 5lbs when you're in the water, they actually feel a bit lighter, yet they're still effective.

Good quality. I have been using this item regularly and it's still in great condition. Easy to put on and take off. The straps are adjustable. When I tighten it around my ankle, the straps stay tight to keep the ankle weight secured. I highly recommend this item. Good for physiotherapy that is recommended by my neurologist to build leg strength. I have autonomic dysfunction/orthostatic intolerance. Initially I started physiotherapy with no ankle weights. As my strength improved I needed something more challenging to increase my strength. I also do laying down leg exercises that are featured in various videos on youtube. The exercises are challenging when you use ankle weights!!

The clip system is easier to use in the water than velcro. You can set the sizing. Comfortable to wear.

Great item
