“After the general atmosphere started to feel chaotic, just wearing them while tidying and doing laundry became soothing. They’re like when a friend grabs your whole wrist in their hand to keep connected as you weave through a big concert”

The eye is a fickle hunter though. When I first saw Bala bangle weights, clunking up the wrist of an alpha girl on a mat in front of me, I felt a deeply satisfying wave of: No thank you very much. I could tell these clonking things were exercise weights, but also that they wanted to trick me for a second! They look like they want to sneak into a Miami cocktail party. Are we maybe costume jewelry? they ask, in their trend-relevant matte smirk.
Wearing my one-pound weights to a couple gym classes and walking the dog, I got jacked little muscles in a week. My bod is very responsive to some things and not responsive at all to others: My arms muscle up instantly, but my soft belly has fled only during times of immense no-appetite stress . So the weights “worked” if working meant that I didn’t notice them as a discrete challenge, but each movement required slightly more effort.
