easy to put on
comfortable in the water
I use for treading water and other water exercises. Especially good for stomach  exercises.
They dry overnight.

Ok Choice
By Duwain H. from Port Charlotte, FL on 11/17/2009

I really like the weights but they are alittle hard to get on and off.  It took me several trys to get them fitted right.  Once I got them fitted they worked very well.

OOPS!
By WATER PUP from Lincoln City OR on 10/27/2009
Size: Feels too big

I ordered the 5 lb. set-should have gotten the 3 lb set-but I will eventually get strong enough to use them!  NO problem with the product itself-just me.

Good for aquatic exercise class

Very good for aquatic exercise class.  Weights have stayed in place well which was a complaint of mine about other weights I had tried.

too much for small ankle
By mary s. from liberty, MO on 10/20/2009
Size: Feels too big

I wanted these for water aerobics class.  I have fine bones and couldn't get these to stay small enough around my ankle so they didn't stay as tight as I would like.  Will still wear them.

ANKLE WEIGHTS
By Rodney F. from Albion, MI on 10/14/2009
Size: Feels too big

SOME OF THE WOMEN SAID THAT THEY FELT TOO BIG EVEN AFTER ADJUSTING THEM.    THEY HAVE BEEN A HIT IN THE CLASS AND HAVE BEEN ASKED FOR EXTENSIVELY CAUSING ME TO ORDER MORE FOR USE IN THE CLASS.   THE SECOND ORDER SEEM TO FIT BETTER.   THEY HAVE BEEN GREAT IN HELPING WITH THE AEROBIC EXERCISES IN THE WATER AND THE STIMULATION TO THE LEGS FOR MANY OF THE PEOPLE WHO CANNOT EXERCISE IN A GYM DUE TO THE HIGH IMPACT IT WOULD HAVE ON THEIR JOINTS AND MUSCLES.

Water Great Ankle weights good value
By BJ from San Jose, CA on 10/11/2009
Size: Feels true to size

I purchased the 5 lb (total weight) ankle weights.  These water ankle weights are a good value.  They have bumped up my water aerobics workout and made it more challenging.  The more expensive WG foam cuffs may be preferred because they aren't as heavy to carry around and function more like foam buoys in the water adding resistance.  However, for less money the workout with ankle weights is very challenging in different ways than using foam cuffs.  You have to work harder to keep your feet up doing crunches as an example whereas foam cuffs aid in keeping your legs afloat.  

I would recommend these to anyone wanting to challenge their water workouts.  The quality of the product is just as consistently good as any Water Gear product.   I was able to keep the weights tight enough around my ankles, but I agree with most reviewers that the the clips and velcro could have been designed better as they are very awkward to put on and tighten while you're in the water.
