I am interested in 5lbs for each ankle. Which one do I buy, is it 5 or 10lbs?

I just bought these recently, you need to get the 10 pounder to have 5 pounds for each leg.

Lok at the shipping weight under product details. The shipping weight for the 10lb set is 10lbs. Therefore, 2 weights of 5lbs apiece. Get the 10

The weight listed is total. You'd by the 10lbs version for 5lb each ankle...

The five pounds refers to the weight of each in my experience, so order 5 lbs, which will be five for each weight.

Hello, I believe each bag of sand is 2.5 lbs (because there are 4 bags and with all of them in the ankle weight it = 10 lbs.) so I believe that the lowest weight u can have is 2.5 and then you can adjust to 5 lb by leaving 2 bags in. Hopes this helps!

I tried one on at the surgeons office so I knew what size I took. Brought home one from his office, and wanted to get an extra one. Know this doesn't answer your question. Sorry. Love wearing the brace, certainly makes my ankle feel better.

I believe the question is asking which product are we actually purchasing because the title advertises OVER 9lbs but the description states 5-9lbs. The accompanying picture displays both products but there is no option to choose. Page is misleading and customers cannot be sure what they are buying!

One (1) lb. The beauty of these ankle weights is their design. Each ankle weight has individual "sleeves" or slots, unlike most ankle weights, and can be adjusted as your training progresses and your body adapts to the given exercise. Each individual slot holds a 1 lb. weight. If you take out each individual weight out of each individual slot and leave only 1 weight in one of the slots, you'll have a 1 lb. ankle weight. If you want to add more weight, you can do so very easily.

Each weighs 5 lbs and is extremely painful to wrap around the ankles, at least for me it was. I just threw it away, simple!

Hello, happy to help if I can. I bought these for my wife, her ankles are 5" in diameter. She reports that she can cinch these weights right down and they work fine for her. A happy wife is a happy life....

I don't know anything about ankle injuries, I do know that these bands are very flexible, you have 3 different strengths, the green one is medium and works for all the stretching that I need. I do stretch my legs and upper body with them and they work really well. I do believe you will be happy about buying them.

Not really; these weights have 5 pockets on each, each pocket has a two pound bag of sand in it so the lowest you could go is 2 lbs per ankle weight. I was not happy with the sand bags as the leaked, they are plastic, albeit thick plastic, but sand leaked from the seams. I replaced the bags using my own creativity to make 1 lb tubes that I could then completely customize the weight distribution.

If I need 5 oz., I divide 5 by 16 (5/16) & get .31 and use that. So 10 lb. 5 oz. = 10.31 on the scale.

I'm a running coach and I use these with several of my coached athletes during training. These are the best ankle weights I've used in over 20+ years of coaching since they are totally adjustable and easy to use. I have the 10lb. ankle weights and can take out the amount of weight I want whether its 2lbs., 5lbs., or whatever.

Hi Arlene. There are small 1/2 pound bars that you can slip in/out of pouch on the ankle strap. Each ankle strap holds up to 5 pounds.

abt 5-6 lbs. but it is built so that everything is amazingly well distributed. I had foot surgery, am 5'10 and i was able to put my whole weight on it to lower raise myself using 1 foot. really an outstanding product for the $$

I have the weights that have 5 2-lb. weights for each ankle. Though it might vary depending on how many of the weights you've inserted, I just measured one that I had 2 2-lb. weights in... It can be tightened enough for my 7 1/2" ankles and loosened to accommodate 22"! At first I thought I wouldn't be able to tighten them enough, but I found that I can fold back the part with the rings (only using one set of rings) and get them tight enough this way. They're good weights and easy to use!

I'm heavy, 200+, and wish I would have gone with the 10". I hate the 12", no good support at all. Woman at customer service at Lucid said the 10" would have been better. Hope this helps.

I used a 15.4 pounder and it was a mistake. Too heavy for this type of workout. I ordered a 10 pound and maybe will order a 7 now that I have read all the above suggestions!

Try 5 lbs. I'm a 200 lb. man and I use 10 lbs. I probably could use more for some of the routines, but this weight has proven effective. But I also agree with some of the other posts: (1) try the band(s), (2) try a range of weights.
