how heavy are the ankle weights in Legs & Glutes???

[sassyella]

buying more equipment AGAIN, and want to know if anyone knows how heavy the ankle weights Cathe uses in TS #5/Legs & Glutes are? Are they 5 lb. each??

Actually, I think they are only 2 pounds each. I would suggest getting a pair of 5 lb. each that are adjustable, so you can go down to 2 lbs. I have some by Pro-Form that are 5 lbs. with each ankle weight containing 10 half pound iron rods that are inserted into sleeves. I can remove as many as I need to create the weight I want.

I got mine from collage.com but I have seen them available at sporting goods stores as well as at Target.

I bought some threes but I did the work the first time with 5's and it was doable!

I ended up buying Reebok 2.5 each ankle (5 lb pair) from Modell's last night because they were on sale. I don't regret it. Did TS #5 last night and man does it kill. Esp. the inner thigh moves. Couldn't do those moves where she's doing leg lifts up on her her elbow... LOL maybe that will come later...
