I'd say no. 1. These won't stay on the way you want. (Especially if you're doing kicking drills etc.) They slip and you'll spend more time being annoyed and adjusting than training. 2. The material is cheap. I kept having to come up with new fixes for these. Now they just sit in my closet. Actually I might as well throw them out. 3. They're actually not that heavy. I've worn combat boots that were heavier.

Oh yeah! That's mainly when I use them. When I speed walk or use excercise machines.

I would say yes. I currently use the medium(green) band around my ankles to strengthen my hips as well. I hope this helps.

Single speed which makes it difficult going up hills. But my legs getting workout and getting stronger. In retrospect I wish I had gotten with at least three speeds.

I am partially paralyzed and use these to build up strength with leg exercises. They're kind of 'poofy' but you CAN cinch them pretty tightly with the velcro straps so they dont slide up and down. They're larger and bulkier than ankle weights which are a pre-set weight though. I think for running or walking I'd prefer something a bit more sleek. These are perfect for my stationary exercises, but I don't think I'd choose them for running.Just my personal preference. Hope this helps!

I believe your legs would be too long...I really think they would be.... Your weight is fine.

Not at all. I would kick these things all night and not have problems. If you are worried about hurting your feet though I would pick up the Tae Kwon Do Feet BLACK w/WHITE PADDING by Kim Pacific. Those things are awesome!

I would say so ... There is plenty of extra slack on mine and I have normal size legs for an athlete. Plus they stretch and give alittle

There is no option for resistance but you can do it depend on how long you want to split your legs and the speed to do it , it is better than resistance option

I wouldn't tryit. The foot splint doesn't allow a decent stride. It prevents you from bending forward because of its placement.

Depends upon your arch difference on your feet before you started. You want to keep them even as possible. I know when I started to wear them on both feet my feet and legs hurt for a little while until they got used to the new muscle tone.

not weight but resistance...you will see when you get your own pair...wonder why it took you so long to find them, use them! Strengths muscles for sure, there is a difference when I don't use them, I feel I get twice the workout with the foot gear. I also bought 'floaties' for even extra resistance...great non-impact exercise!

I run in them for short distances as well as rowing machine they have good support for the knee but don't know if I would use it for say legit distance running

No. Just get used to it. I'm a big guy and work in the steel I dustrie. Wear em all day and don't have a problem. I don't know what your doing to em. just practice your motor skills.

I just do a fast-paced walk on treadmills...not brave enough to run. It seems to be OK for my "speed"Sorry I couldn't be of more help

I think that would depend on your strength. They are tight. I use them around my ankles and thighs for side squats and its a great workout. I am sorry but I have not used them yet for arms. I use the red and blue. I have not used green one which I think is the "easy" one???

Judging from the ones I have, they do look pretty sturdy and I don't think you would have a problem. Plus I think a lot of the moves would work well from your knees, so it wouldn't be your whole body's weight on them. The only concern is that this equipment can put a lot of stress on your shoulders with your weight, so you will have to be careful and not go too deep, definitely do everything from your knees until you build up strength on these motions :)
