INCREASE  YOUR  CALORIE  BURN BY  ALMOST  TWICE  AS  MUCH SIMPLY  BY  ADDING  SOME RESISTANCE  TO  YOUR  WALK.

Years ago, experts cautioned that ankle weights were a precursor to leg injuries. It was theorized that repetitive stress on shins, feet, and knees increased cases of shin splints, plantar fasciitis, and patellar tracking problems.

 

Still, instead of approving ankle & hand weights, authorities suggested increasing your pace. Some recommended boosting caloric expenditure by vigorously pumping your arms.

 

Recently however, studies reported in the Physician & Sports Medicine demonstrated that adding 5 pound weights to each ankle increased caloric burn by 25 percent.

 

Furthermore, individuals who wore ankle weights during their daily activities expended additional calories.

 

The key to a safe progression is to start light and add weight gradually.

 

Walk slower than your normal pace. After you are accustomed to the extra weight, you can speed up your gait.  Be careful not to increase your stride length when you begin your ankle weight training.

 

Start with half pound weights. Add another half pound every two weeks. When you work up to 5 pounds, that is sufficient.
