Ankle Weight

It is important to choose ankle weights that are heavy enough to fatigue the muscles within 10 to 12 repetitions. Using lighter weights and doing a lot of repetitions will not be as effective in building strength. Building strength is what raises the metabolism. Weight training the muscles to fatigue causes the muscle fibers to tear slightly so that they can heal and become stronger. This is a natural process; however, it means that it is important to rest in between workouts. Use ankle weights every other day and incorporate some aerobic exercises or upper-body exercises on other days to balance out the workout.
