Ankle & Wrist Weights Australia | Adjustable Training Weights

Ankle and wrist weights are small, adjustable wearable weights secured around the ankles or wrists to increase resistance during low-impact movement and bodyweight exercises.

They are commonly used for:

• Improving muscular endurance
• Adding resistance to walking and cardio
• Supporting rehabilitation and physiotherapy exercises
• Enhancing functional strength and stability training
• Increasing difficulty of leg raises and core movements

Because they’re portable and adjustable, they suit home workouts, rehab routines and beginner-friendly strength programs.

Adjustable Ankle Weights

Designed for lower-body movements such as walking, step-ups, leg raises and rehab exercises. Many models use removable weight inserts for progression.

Adjustable Wrist Weights

Used for light resistance on arm movements during cardio, aerobics and controlled physiotherapy routines.

Dual-Use Ankle & Wrist Weights

Versatile designs that can be worn on either the ankles or wrists depending on the training goal.

• Beginners / rehab: 0.5kg–1kg per side
• General fitness: 1kg–2kg per side
• Advanced conditioning: 2kg–3kg per side

Tip: Start lighter than you think and prioritise controlled movement. Wearable weight is best used for endurance and stability — not max strength lifting.

For progressive resistance training, ankle and wrist weights can be combined with resistance bands or free weights like dumbbells and kettlebells within a complete program.

Home Use

Compact and easy to store, ankle and wrist weights are ideal for walking programs, light strength sessions and home training where space is limited.
