Embrace Your Real

Are Weighted Vests Worth the Hype?


Listen Later

Today we’re diving into a hot topic I’ve been getting lots of questions about lately—weighted vests. Are they worth the hype? Are they essential to see progress? And should you run out and buy one if you’re working out at home?

I’m going to walk you through: 

  • What they’re good for

  • How to use them

  • When they’re actually helpful

Just keep in mind that just like with fancy gym equipment, supplements, or apps, weighted vests are a tool, not a requirement.

And if you want to increase your progressive overlaod but don’t want to use a weighted vest, I break down how to make your workouts more intense in episode 263: How to Keep Yourself Challenged When You Don't Have Access to Other Weights
