You know how it is: there are some days when you wake up with an irresistible urge to go about your day with a 6 week old kitten strapped to each wrist. It's probably a bad idea, though. The kind of bad idea that will get Rolf Harris* and the rest of the Pet Rescue team coming after you intent on ABH with a didgeridoo and a wobble board. And you know what they say about the Rolfmeister - he's the king of giving people a good hiding with musical instruments that aren't really musical instruments. Even if you are the kind of madcap maverick that's prepared to look death by an Aussie bloke in the eye (and you just *know* he's going to be singing some ...  Read the complete review

I've been trying to improve my fitness level and loose a few pounds for about two months now and have so far taken the following steps: 1. I no longer go to the gym because I like the chocolate brownies in the café, but actually use the gym once or twice a week now. 2. Rather than walking my dog around my local shopping centre car park, so I can pop into Warehouse, I try to walk a mile a day now. 3. I now resist the urge to have a takeaway every weekend and opt for something healthy... well some of the time I do anyway. I'm actually quite proud of myself and can already tell that I'm getting fitter as I can now just about manage to jog on ...  Read the complete review

WHAT IS IT? A set of weights designed to be worn around the ankle, used for toning of the legs and  bottom. IS IT ANY GOOD? I've been wearing the ankle weights four times a week for a few months as I've been dieting. As a beautician I spend a lot of my day on my feet so when I get home my legs do feel like they've had a workout.  The weights are thickly padded for comfort, mine are the 1lb pink weights but they are also available in 3lb and 5lb weights.  They are easy to attach to your ankle and are fully adjustable to fit a wide range of sizes, the strong velcro strap keeps the weight in place and I never experience slipping once I've ...  Read the complete review

I have to admit I'm not the fittest person about and I could exercise a lot more, however I do try and this means I tend to buy a few bits of home gym equipment here and there. After the Christmas splurge the tonnes of adverts for exercise DVD's got to me and I decided to purchase a couple. One thing they recommend is wearing wrist weights or using small dumbbells whilst working out. Aware that I didn't want to be holding weights I decided to invest in a set of wrist/ ankle weights and of course I turned to Argos. I decided not to opt for the cheapest option, a Pro Fitness set, but instead I decided to opt for a slightly more expensive set made by ...  Read the complete review

I love to keep fit and work hard to fit it in to my daily routine, that can be tough going however i really love the wrist and ankle weights as i wear them under my clothes for hours during the day without anyone noticing and can continue to run around or do house work whilst keeping my legs toned and trim. I have pro fitness and pineapple wrist and ankle weights but over the last few years due to daily use the velcro straps have gone one them so i had to replace them. I choose everlast this time mainly because this is a brand am familiar with and was drawn to the bright colours of the weights. I bought my everlast ankle weights around two months ...  Read the complete review
