Just being practical; there’s not enough for the both of us.
(Besides, it would be melted by time Pitney-Bowes got it to you. Remember the candy corn?)
Everything I’ve read about testing of this class of item says they are a very mixed bag, and can be counterproductive if used improperly. Since I don’t do formal workout stuff, I feel safe ignoring them.
Sure, you could buy these to add 15 lbs to your body weight for a more intense workout. Or you could do it naturally by finishing off that last case of stroopwafels.
@werehatrack Although I haven’t been able to confirm it yet, I heard that wearing them while shaking a margarita causes them to merge into a Shake Weight.
Hello from 1 sucker that bought these. Did anyone else actually pull the trigger? I have worn the 5lbs weights twice on morning walks (should’ve gone with the 2.5s for sure!) and I see some really weird black “dust” coming out of them. Has anyone had similar experiences?

Cankle weights?
Are these large enough to cover up a court-ordered tracking ankle bracelet?
Asking for a friend.
@mike808 Yeah, right…
Just what I’ve been weighting for!
@phendrick
How long do I have to sit wearing these to burn off the calories and fat from a chocolate bar?
@phendrick Two questions.
How big is the chocolate bar?
Why did you not share said chocolate bar you meanie?

If these were refurbished, I’d be in for 2
But will wearing them make you able to shake a better margarita?

Tape app ad?
@stinks
@stinks tape app ad ad app tape-tion?
@kostia @stinks Tape app ad ape-shunned?
@stinks I’ve been on it all day and I’ve finally given up on understanding the joke.
@kostia Yeah I wondered if it was just a typo, but even that doesn’t really sound right. Does it?
@mikey Who would we even ask? Is @thumperchick still around? Who is the writer now?
/giphy confused

I could eat the Candy corn and just add weight that way.
@wstull1
I wonder how well these work as bludgeons to break up the block of melted candy corn, though. They look a bit soft.
Weighing my options
I think my mom used these when I just wouldn’t stay down for a nap…
These are working out great for my son’s workout routine. Maybe to complete the look, I should make him an 80s workout mix tape!

The straps are way to short for me!
