Does wearing a weighted vest during exercise help?

  • The stress to the bones that comes with weight baring or resistance exercises leads to great bone strength. So does adding more stress to the bones by wearing a weighted vest during exercise lead to even greater bone density? And, are there other possible benefits to wearing weighted vests during exercise?

    Loved the video and your sense of humor. I recently started where an adjustable weighted vest in the morning. I have noticed a difference. I have a daily goal of 15K steps per day. But I live by my “7 by 7” rule - to get 7K steps by 7am. This way I’m half way to my goal in the morning before I sit for 8hrs working in front of my laptop.
    Please keep up the videos!!

      Excellent question. Thanks. If you have ankle, knee or hip problems, the weight of the vest may make things worse. Also, low back problems may get aggravated if there's too much side to side or front to back movement while wearing a weighted vest.

      never go above 10 lbs. ideally around 4-7 pounds is super safe BUT you still feel it. 3 pounds or less is not really much...

    Does weighted vest during running g has the same benefits. Should the weights be at the front or back for a 37 yr old male. Thanks

    • @drjakefitnessfacts
      @drjakefitnessfacts  7 місяців тому +1

      The extra weight while running could be too hard on the hips, knees and ankles. Plus osteoporosis is less of an issue in men. But, if anything, gradually adding weight to the back or equally to both back and front should be safe. Thanks for the question.

    What weight should the vest be?

    • @drjakefitnessfacts
      @drjakefitnessfacts  Рік тому +5

      Start with one around 4-8 % of your body weight. I recommend one that you can add weight to and is comfortable.

    Thanks for the good info and laugh. 😃 Does it have to be an official weighted vest, or could we cheapskate diyers make our own using a backpack filed with books and / or a regular vest that we fill the pockets with rocks?

    • @drjakefitnessfacts
      @drjakefitnessfacts  3 місяці тому

      Good question. A backpack could work but might be too much for the lower back unless the weight in gradually increased. A regular but weighted vest could also work but with official vests the weight is equally distributed front and back with less initial stress on the body so you can start with a higher amount of weight. Thanks for the question.

    Can anyone in the comments answer my question: Should I use a weighted vest (I am 14 years old)?

    • @drjakefitnessfacts
      @drjakefitnessfacts  20 днів тому

      Sorry if I missed your question before. It will help increase bone density along with lifting weights and weight-bearing exercises. If you are doing those, you don't NEED a weighted vest but the added weight will add more stress to your bones increasing their bone density or strength.
