I don't know if these are considered like a weight style, but they're totally different than what I'd normally go for (always said I'd NEVER wear weights or anything remotely like them. No offense to anyone that wears them, but I'm saying I was wrong anyhow),but I just couldn't seem to get them out of my head. So glad I got them, & they're so much better than I imagined,& worth the price! If you've looked at them before, but wasn't sure about spending that much or whatever, do it! You'll be so happy with them! Had a hard time deciding between the Linear or the Power hoops, but went with the Linear ones because I'm getting a set of the power plugs soon. Although I love this squared off hoop style so much, I want the power hoops too one day! And I've seen these ones called rhomboid weights that gorilla glass makes that I like,but haven't seen them on any sites other than the main GG one. But after trying the hoops, I'd definitely be more open to trying an actual weighted style
