I tried a weighted vest for a very, very short period of time. It did not work with my above average sized chest. Perhaps there are different designs now to accommodate, but this is something to consider before buying a weighted vest.

Hello Katie, Great article! I find that the weighted vests are a bit out of my price range though. I’ve always walked with weight, even 20 years ago. A small daypack was my go to and always had at least a first aid kit in it and added weight when required. I was always questioned why I wore this daypack. It just felt good to have my shoulders pulled back and straight in a proper position. Who new there were additional benefits.

I found some scuba-weights in the junk, and an air-hostesses demo-belt. I want to make a weighted-vest with these. Any pointers on what makes it a good one or a bad one?
