ABSTRACT:
An aesthetically pleasing weight for shoes allows a user to customize his or her workout. The shoe weight slips under the shoelaces of workout shoe. The shoe weight is held firmly in place by the shoelace tension and shape of the shoe weight. A secondary securing cord can be used as a backup to hold the weight in position. The intensity of the workout can be varied by the number and magnitude of weight the user selects. Different muscle groups can be targeted by adjusting the position on the shoe on which the weight(s) is secured. The shoe weight is attractively shaped of polished metal. Conversely, the shoe weights can be coated. The coating can be colored, textured or the like.
