I am looking for adjustable weights for ankles (my use for ankles only) that can range from 1 to 5 pounds on each ankle. Will this product do that?

Yes, it can. However, these go up to 10lb each ankle. You can pull weights to keep it in the 1-5lb. range, but if 5lb. will be your maximum weight, then save by buying 5lb. max wights.

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 you are looking for ankle weights to do leg lifts etc. in place without running or walking, these would be perfect. They do not tighten enough for a person who wants to jog or run.

I'm really not sure, I have only owned these, to be safe I would get these, I just read all the reviews. I am 180, 5'10 and athletic muscular build, they work great but you you will have to get use to the ankle pain after a few uses. I recommend 10-15 a day, maybe twice a day if you can. I got them primarily for abdominal exercise.

Is a single weigh. But the ankle weights are really good, good material, don't scratch the skin, it's like leather. My 15 lb one have almost two years and are like new. It's a really good buy.

I wear them during physical therapy. My educated guess would be "no" in reference to boot-cut jeans. You can adjust the weight. They are bulky enough to be uncomfortable under boot-cut jeans. The All Pro Weight Adjustable Ankle... Were recommended by my PT. I suggest a wardrobe change. Just saying!

No. I bought them just for my ankles with the understanding that is what the product is for.

I bought the ankle sleeve for my husband. He is 5'10 and carries about 285 pounds. His ankles are quite large and this ankle support fit very confortably. He is so pleased with it and hasn't suffered from the pain in his ankle since using it.

You set the length of the limit strap at the bottom before getting on it, then push it back to test the degree of incline. If you are fairly flexible it's easy enough to rotate forward, bend down and readjust it even when you are locked in to the ankle clamps. It would recommend someone be there to help you at least the first time you use it!

Hi Patric, I no longer jog/run as I used to. I use the weights while walking with no problem. I cannot tell you for sure, but you probably could run with them, slowly increasing the weights and making sure to wear thick socks to protect the ankles. Or you could try speed-walking first. The weight designer does not recommend them except for static exercises, but most people do walk with ankle weights without problems. Take care, Carmen Sofia

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 would say no. It's best for wrapping around both ankles, and doing side, front, or back leg raises. This also strengthen hip muscles.

If you try to run I think they will shake all over the place. I don't think it's good to run with ankle weights...if you ask me. I use them for hip and butt exercises and the work great. If you want to add weight to your running the get a weighted vest or wear a heavy back pack. Good luck.

The nylon pouch weighs less than a pound. Each ankle pouch holds up to 10 1/2 lb weights = 5 lbs. max per ankle.

Yes, it fits small and large wrists and ankles. These are very versatile weights.

You have to know that at full inversion ,your whole body weight is being supported only by your ankles, I don't know your body weight, or how long you're staying at full inversion. I only invert for a few seconds at a time, coming back up & going inverted again several times. If your ankles hurt, I would not stay inverted for long periods of time, you really don't have to be fully inverted for the effects, 45-75 degrees works good for me, also try holding your head up, like you're looking down at your chest, it helps keeping blood from rushing to the head & helps to invert longer, I hope this helps & good luck...HAPPY NEW YEAR & STAY SAFE!!!

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

you could use this for running but you would have to either pad around your ankle or run with boots on, because the weights would eventually start hurting your ankle as they went up and down inside their sleeves.

If you go to the tommy copper online site - they have a chart showing in inches the measurement to the corresponding size - depending on which item you are looking at. That is how i measured my ankle piece. The ankle piece is very shear - unlike most supports - I do not know if that is consistent throughout the line. I am very pleased with mine - it is not a miracle cure - but i think it has definitely helped reduce the pain in my ankle.
