PILOXING Pair of Black and Pink 0.5 lb Weighted Gloves for Women

I have been working out with cardio classes and walking. Over past several months it's become harder to get my heart rate up. My heart is getting in shape faster than the rest of my body. A friend loaned me the use of hand weights for a cardio class. My heart rate got up with the same amount of my usual effort. They were half pound weights as these are. I thought them kinda light. Then after 20 minutes I felt every movement of my arms, shoulders and had to put them down. I got these for myself. They fit snug without being too tight. I tried them weight on the top of my hands and in my palms. They fit good either way. A good lighter weight to aid in keeping heart rate up while the rest of me gets into shape.

I'm 5'7" and have small hands and a small wrist, and these were too small. Not sure how they fit so many other reviewers, but for me they were uncomfortable to work out in. In retrospect I can now understand why the model for the product image is a teenager. Disappointed, but if you're small they should be good!

I go for long daily walks in my neighborhood, usually about 1 1/4 hours, including flat and hilly terrain. I have several routes. I like to see what's going on and meet and greet people. These 1/2 pound gloves are perfect to give some weighted resistance as I walk. In addition to being really cute and comfortable, they cover the back of my hands --no sun exposure!

I initially bought these gloves just to use in a Piloxing class but decided to try them in other cardio classes to add a little extra to my workout. These small weights have added such definition to my arms as well as make me burn more calories. I have small hands and many other weights are too cumbersome to use while doing a cardio class. These allow me to move freely and easily. I use them in many more classes than the actual piloxing classes and am upset if i forget them!

Like the look and feel, but the left glove is slightly longer than the right one, where the double-finger-slot is, so it's not as nicely snug around the index and middle fingers as the right one. These are overall nice and look good.

Good gloves, but rather small so don't easily remain in place. Material makes hands sweaty and gloves moist very quickly. Not sure if/how they can be cleaned. Nor sure how durable they are either.

Value for the $$. My instructor of BANG sells their version at twice as much and they are nice but hard to remove. THESE are much easier to put on and take off. They have the 1/2# weight inside which is what my BANG instructor uses so I am very happy with my purchase. They arrived very quickly.

This are quality made and adding just 1/2lb during Piloxing classes makes a world of difference. You wouldn’t think such a small amount of weight could tone you so much but with the high reps and amount of time having the arms up during Piloxing classes your arms feel as sore as if you were holding 10lb weights
