Bala Bangles are a trending piece of workout equipment that are very popular amongst influencers and celebrities. As we have entered the summer season, I’ve become interested in finding ways to become more active that don’t necessarily require me to go to the gym or to a workout class every day. With the Bala Bangles you don’t need to! This piece of workout equipment is completely versatile; it doesn’t require heavy exertion to produce great results. You can wear the Bala Bangles on both your wrists and ankles in any athletic, recreational and domestic setting. Whether you’re in a yoga class, at the gym, or even just walking around your home, the Bala Bangles add a comfortable resistance to any activity.

I was hesitant to purchase the Bala Bangles due to how trendy the product is amongst influencers. A part of me questioned the authenticity of the brand, as well as the influencers I follow. I wondered, are the videos I see solely sponsored advertisements, or do these influencers and celebrities genuinely love the product and can honestly say that it has elevated their fitness journey?
This hesitation was outweighed by my curiosity in the product and desire to begin my fitness journey. Aside from the surplus of influencer and celebrity related content, the Bala Bangles are wildly popular and loved by the everyday user. The convenience of the Bala Bangles and knowing that you’re getting a workout in without being at the gym was a key factor in my decision to purchase the product. Working from home just got more exciting!

I first noticed the chic, cute branding “Let’s Balacize” label sticker in baby blue, which I loved especially because it happened to match the color of my Bangles! I wonder if this was a coincidence or if they always match the label sticker to the product color?

My first impression of the Bangles was that they seemed like a very simple, easy-to-use and effective product. The Bangles were packaged in a cardboard box taking almost the exact shape and size of the product. There were no extra materials inside of the box, which I absolutely loved as it was a great sign of their commitment to sustainability. Did I forget to mention that they came in only four days?

Very comfortable, use them on both my wrists and ankles depending on what I'm doing. Would highly recommend, I want to buy another pair!

The first thing you see when opening the box is an oval-shaped piece of paper, which I noticed was a replica of the shape of their Bala Bars, with a QR code for users to scan to direct them to a list of workouts on the Shop Bala website. On the other side of this piece of paper was a list of 10 exercise activities you’re able to do with the product. I found this aspect to be really useful because it saved me time researching ways to use the product.

The two weights were packaged inside a see-through bag with a zipper matching the color of the product. It’s an adorable way to package the weights and I can totally see myself using the bag in other ways besides storage! The weights themselves are slick and smooth against your skin. I was worried the velcro would rub against my wrists and ankles but the strap and weights completely protect your skin.

I’ve loved using the 1lb weights for walking and running, but have yet to try them in a workout class. I tend to use them most on my gym’s treadmill or when using the facility’s Commercial Functional Training Machine for an arm workout. The weights are a great added ankle resistance when doing abdominal workouts, or even just walking around my home.

I find the versatility of the Bangles to be my favorite part. I love that you’re able to strap the weights on your ankles and wrists and use them wherever and whenever you’d like. It’s also great how you can easily adjust the Bangles by spreading each individual weight together or apart depending on how you see fit.

Obsessed is an understatement .. I use these on my wrists and ankles from pilates to walking the dog for a little extra added spice! Just bought a pair for my MIL to use during her lunch break at work .. 10/10 would recommend .. and the fact that they’re cute is just an added bonus.

I was interested in trying out the 2 lb weights to see how they differ from what I purchased. I used my sister’s Bangles and definitely noticed a difference in how they felt around my ankles after an extended period of time. I often had to readjust them to fit more securely to avoid them falling down my ankles and rubbing against my bone. For those of you looking to purchase the 2 lb Bala Bangles, I would recommend wearing high socks to avoid this happening!

I absolutely love my Bala Bangles and think they are going to be a great addition to my workout routine! I don’t have to rely on my gym’s equipment or force myself to attend a class anymore since I can get a good workout right at home. Bala offers a variety of workout equipment that made it overwhelming to choose which product to begin with, but I would definitely recommend the Bangles to the first-time user. With consistent usage, I can honestly say that the convenience of the Bala Bangles will support me in achieving my fitness goals!
