Description:
|
These are weights that fit in the palm of your hands. They are available in 1-lb, 1.5-lb, 2-lb, 3-lb, 4-lb, and 5-lb sets. (The weight designation represents the total weight for the pair.) But, as the weight increases, the overall size of each egg remains the same due to the use of higher-density metal. Grips are available in 7 colors: black, pink, blue, burgundy, purple, camo, and grey.
|
How It Works:
|
Each egg weight is encased in a grip which provides a loop for your middle finger. You can perform all kinds of exercises while holding these weights in your hands.
|
Ideal For:
|
Boxers, tennis players, basketball players, volleyball players, and any sport that requires throwing and/or lots of arm effort. Holding these while running can also increase your VO2max. Also ideal for elderly exercisers!
|
Why It's Cool:
|
They're simple, functional, and effective!
