anybody use skate slug weights

Do they stay on the skates well?

they also have this one that connects to the holder

im thinking that maybe the slug is better because the weight is centralized around the foot rather than down low on the holder?

The lower the weight on your foot the more noticable it will be think about how big of a difference people notice between ls2 and ls fusion runners.

Always heard ankle weights were bad for your joints and they can also mess with your balance/coordination... which isn't something you want to do to your skating stride. Have you looked into weighted vests?

best thing to do is weighted dryland training. get ankle weights and do the speed ladder. lifting your knees to your chest as you go through. that will help with your agility. seriously, if you're in the gym 3 days a week doing weight training you dont need this stuff. do some hack squats, that will help your skating.
