Do weighted arm/ankle straps actually work irl?

I wore ankle weights for a while in high school because I thought it would make me faster lol. It certainly worked in my mind, but I doubt it really did anything meaningful.

I put 7lbs weights on my legs and walked to kollege a few times and, years later, wore them for full days of work. Felt kool walking like a tank, but that kan fuck up your knees/gait. The moment I started to feel that, I never did it again.
