Leg Weights is essentially a method of training. It involves adding additional weights to ones legs so that normal movement will be more cumbersome. The idea behind this is that while the strain of the additional weight may initially make normal movement difficult, or maybe even impossible, once the body begins to adapt and once one becomes capable of moving as they normally would with the added weight on, they will be capable of moving even faster once they finally remove the weights.
It's basically systemic overload, increase burden to increase function.

Okay then, so, here's a training dummy. Go all out on him by using Tai moves but keep in mind to use mostly your legs. Then, put on a set of weights and try the very same attack. Have your bio acknowledge the difficulty and challenge the weights give to him as he attacks the dummy for a second time.

Ling would launch towards the training dummy, initiating with a spinning backick with his right leg towards the mid-section of the dummy's torso. As the backick connects, the Inuzuka would reverse the polarity of his spin so that his leg whips around in almost a complete 360 pivot to strike the upper parts of the dummies left shoulder. He would then whip his right leg down to the ground and, the moment it touches it the earth his left leg would launch straight up to deliver a highkick towards the center of the dummies torso that would extend straight upwards into the dummies chin, sending it flying.
He would then place the leg weights on and attempt to repeat the combination. This time however he would notice significant difficulty, especially in regards to controlling his spinning transition from a back-kick to a normal kick, and his ability to raise his leg high enough to perform a high kick. The exertion would leave him more exhausted than he would care to admit.

Returning again after quite a while, Ling would once again launch towards the training dummy. The difference compared to last time was evident from the outset. His lunge towards the dummy was not lethargic or slow, but instead reminiscent of the speed that he had displayed in the past, before shackling himself with these weights. As he nears the dummy, he would jump forwards, delivering a flying side kick with his right leg towards the dummys upper chest.
Then, utilising torque, he would bring his right leg to the ground and by rotating on it as an axis, spin his left leg up to deliver a high kick to the dummy's right temple. As the high kick is delivered, he would lurch downwards, forwards and to the left, furthering the body weight behind the kick, but mainly serving to place his hands on the ground so that he could rotate off of them and deliver a spinning lowkick to the dummy's left shin. He would then springboard off of both hands, backflip, and return to a neutral position. Even he was aware that his actions had be noticeably faster than when he had first worn his weights.

(Katai Omori) Leg Weights
So the jutsu you been waiting on. These are basically the legs that you will have on that will increase the strength of your leg based attacks. This, however is not the technique that will release them.
Type: Weapon/Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short
Chakra: 30
Damage: N/A
Description: The Leg Weights used for Special Taijutsu Training with Added Weights are made through the application of a sealing formula to ordinary leg weights. The sealing formula is used to, through the use of chakra, increase the weight of the leg weights to the desired level. The seal can't be applied to anything other than the leg weights and its use is restricted to its original purpose. One can remove the leg weights but the sealing technique in them stays active indefinitely and can't be released. Additionally, the Leg Weights and their unique seal calibration makes them only usable by the ninja to whom they belong. They can't be sealed or stolen.

(Katai Omori: Doroppu) Leg Weights: Drop
This is where you will drop the weights and increase your speed and leg strength. Be mindful that it doesn’t stack with some stuff but this is probably not true anymore with the new boosting rules.
Type: Supplementary
Rank: A
Range: Short
Chakra: N/A
Damage: N/A (+20 to Kicks, 2x Running Speed)
Description:
The user stops, bends over to reach his legs and unstraps his leg weights, dropping them to the ground. As a result the user gains a drastic boost to his running speed (doubles) and +20 to all his Strong Fist Kick-related moves. However, this boost in strength and speed is completely nullified when releasing the EIG or when using any kind of movement speed enhancement technique or weight manipulation technique; they don't add up on each other.
