Woman tests ankle weights to strengthen legs during perimenopause
A woman in a city tested Sportneer ankle weights for one week to improve her lower body workouts while managing knee pain.
Previous exercise habits changed due to injury
The writer previously performed cardio routines and high-intensity classes before her body developed issues. She first suffered bursitis in her knee, which a doctor linked to excessive burpees. Later, complaints from her lower back forced her to stop certain activities.
New routine focuses on strength and walking
She switched to strength training, barre, pilates classes, and extensive walking to stay fit. Ankle weights were chosen specifically to isolate leg muscles for building strength during perimenopause. She uses this method while carrying heavy grocery bags from Trader Joe's three times weekly.
