How Can I Use KURLA Weights?

Short Answer: KURLA weights are wearable wrist and ankle weights you can use for full body activation at home, in the gym, or on the go. They come in multiple fixed sizes with a secure, comfortable design that stays put while you move.

What Makes KURLA Weights Different?

KURLA wearable weights use a dual strap fit with a supportive heel strap for extra stability, plus soft padding and breathable fabric for comfort during longer sessions. Sizes range from light to heavy so you can progress from mobility work to serious resistance training.

How To Choose Your Starting Weight

1) Light loads for Pilates, mobility, beginners, and pre or postnatal

2) Moderate loads for glute work, core training, sculpt, and HIIT

3) Heavier loads for advanced athletes and power moves

For upper body, pick a load close to your usual dumbbell choice. For lower body, think about what you use for single leg movements like kickbacks and step ups.

Sample Ways To Use KURLA Weights

1) Glute and Lower Body Sculpt

1) Standing glute kickbacks 3×12 each side

2) Side lying leg lifts 3×12 each side

3) Step ups 3×10 each leg

4) Donkey kicks 3×12 each side

5) Standing calf raises 3×15

2) Core Stability Flow

1) Dead bug or marching tabletop 3×10

2) Side plank hip lifts 3×8 each side

3) Standing knee drives 3×12 each side

4) Seated leg lifts 3×12

5) Use lighter ankle loads and focus on breathing and bracing.

3) Walking and Low Impact Cardio

Wear light KURLA weights for a 20 to 30 minute walk to increase activation without high impact. Avoid heavy loads for running or jump based sessions to protect your joints.

4) At Home Pilates Add On

Place lighter KURLAs at the ankles for bridges, clamshells, leg circles, and side lying series. Keep tempo controlled and maintain neutral hips.
