I use these on my wrists while playing wii tennis and am now getting a real workout while I play! It was difficult to get used to at first; but now I can't play without them. They're very well made; sturdy and well priced.

Highly recommended!

These are great they dont slip on your wrist or ankles they stay in place

I'm very happy with these weights, they aren't too light or too heavy. It's a great addition to the wii for exercises. I don't see why regular weights wouldn't work though, if you could get them cheaper. There really isn't anything that makes these specific to the wii that I've seen.

We bought two pairs of these for our son who has SPD, and they really help. They appear to be made well and are easily adjusted.

these will fit just about everyone. adjustable straps are great. i wish they were a little heavier, but they are awesome. just remember to take them off when you weigh in for the wii fit game....

I knew in advance that these were labeled "Wii" but were in no way different from other weights. I still got them because they had good reviews and were reasonably priced.

Unfortunately, I must have very skinny arms, because even when they are pulled as tight as possible, they slide up and down my arms. I am going to have to get wrist warmers or something to wear under them, to prevent chafing.

If you are on the small side, these might be an annoyance for you.

 

Kind of a goofy concept, but I actually got these to wear while playing video games. The wrist weights strap on securely and fit comfortably while allow you to use your hands, finger, arms, and wrists. I sweat under them, but I think that's going to happen with anything like this. I position the gap down, and the weights hang comfortably over my wrists - I don't even have to tighten the strap too tight. Note this product seems to be filed under video games, so while submitting this review, the systems ask me to rank the product with stars, and then to rank how 'fun is this game,' also in stars. Weights are not fun.

I purchased these Wii Ankle/Wrist Weights to use when doing 'Free Run' and 'Free Step' on the Wii Fit Plus with Balance Board. They're a simple design with a single, highly adjustable Velcro strap that holds them securely in place. Just this little bit of extra weight on my wrists makes for a more rigorous workout, engaging my upper body more fully. I plan to purchase a second set so I can wear them on both my ankles and wrists.

These are nice ankle and wrist weights, though I will look for something a bit heavier for my ankles to really increase the workout from stepping. I have average size wrists for a woman, and they are a tiny bit loose when pulled tight but still fine to use for cardio boxing on the Wii. They definitely increase the workout from boxing! For small wrists, they may not be tight enough, even when pulled very tight. I found them too heavy to wear comfortably for Wii tennis or table tennis.

It's not a game, just strap on weights...they are not very comfortable and my plan was to just put them on my ankles and wear them all day to increase effort during normal activity.
