Get in shape while you run errands with these ankle weights from Amazon.

With the beach scene from "Top Gun: Maverick" taking over social media, those of us who spent winter (and most of spring at this point) avoiding the gym were reminded what it looks like to be in great shape. Heck, I would love to look like Miles Teller with my shirt off, but I’m not sure I (or anyone else) could pull off the mustache quite as well.

We could, however, get in better shape. And a relatively easy way to do that is to add some extra resistance to your jogging routine with a set of ankle weights, like these BalanceFrom weights on sale right now at Amazon.

If you’ve never ran with ankle weights, they’re actually pretty easy to use. All you have to do is wrap them around your ankles, secure the straps, and you’re good to go. The added weight will utilize your muscles more than normal running, helping you burn more calories and build more muscle.

This set comes with removable weights so you can get the right amount of strain for what you’re trying to do. They include (in pairs):

Don’t scoff at these amounts thinking that 1-5 pounds doesn’t sound like much. Lifting that much as part of a normal workout is one thing, but strapping it onto your legs and going for a run with that amount is a completely different animal!

You can also wrap these weights around your wrists or even upper arms depending on what you’re trying to train. So what are you waiting for? Run on over to Amazon and pick up a set of BalanceFrom ankle weights for 38% off.
