FAQs
Can I use these for high-impact activities like running?
While they can be used for light jogging, they are primarily designed for lower-impact activities like walking, Pilates, and strength training. For high-impact running, ensure the fit is extremely secure to prevent any discomfort or injury.
How do I know if the 2kg weight is right for me?
If you are new to adding weights, 2kg is a good starting point. If you can comfortably complete 15-20 repetitions of an exercise without significant strain, you might benefit from a heavier weight. Listen to your body and consult a fitness professional if unsure.
Can children use these weights?
These weights are designed for adult use. The adjustability may allow for older teenagers, but caution should be exercised, and a fitness professional should be consulted regarding appropriate weight training for minors.
Are these machine washable?
No, the weights are not machine washable. Please clean them with a damp cloth as per the care instructions.
How much does each individual weight weigh?
Each individual weight in the set is 2kg.
Can I combine wrist and ankle weights during a single workout?
Yes, you can wear weights on both your wrists and ankles simultaneously to increase the overall resistance and challenge of your workout.
Troubleshooting
Weights slipping during exercise
Ensure the rip-tabs are securely fastened and adjusted for a snug fit. Check that the surface of the rip-tabs is clean and free of debris.
Discomfort or chafing
Adjust the positioning of the weights and ensure the rip-tabs are not overly tightened. Consider wearing them over clothing if direct skin contact is an issue.
Weight feels too light for desired intensity
Consider increasing the duration or repetitions of your exercises, or look for heavier weight options if available and appropriate for your training goals.
