Weighted vests are becoming popular for enhancing walks, especially in the wellness community on platforms like TikTok. Users report benefits such as improved posture, stronger core, and increased stamina after incorporating a weighted vest into their daily routine. Popular creators have shared their experiences, noting significant physical challenges and soreness, indicating a higher workout intensity. Certified personal trainers explain that these vests add resistance to basic movements, making workouts more effective and appealing to those looking to maximize their exercise efforts.
"According to Amanda Dvorak, ISSA-CPT, ISSA-CNC, a certified personal trainer with Garage Gym Reviews, a weighted vest distributes added load across your upper body to increase resistance, and that's what makes you sweat."
"In a TikTok posted June 3, creator @veganchic said she noticed so many benefits after walking with a weighted vest for 30 days, including improved posture, a stronger core, and better stamina."
"Creator @lenesha_a is also a big fan of this trend. In a video posted June 24, she took her 20-pound vest for a two-mile walk. In the caption, she said the jaunt was 'no joke,' and also commented to say she was 'so sore' the next day."
"Dvorak thinks it's because they're a no-fuss tool that adds to basic movements, like going for a hot girl walk. People want to get more out of the workouts they're already doing, and throwing on a vest turns a walk into something more challenging."
