Love this breakdown, TJ. Weighted walking is one of those rare upgrades that gives you more return without blowing up your recovery or your schedule. I’m already walking a ton thanks to pickleball — 5–6 days a week on court — and at home I keep it simple with free weights, a bar to hang from, and a mat for planks and sit‑ups. A vest slides right into that same “no‑friction” category. Easy to add, hard to screw up, and the benefits stack fast.
If you’re ever interested in a collaboration or mutual recommendations between our newsletters, I think our audiences would mesh really well.
Thanks for this! I just started this. The protocols really help. I put 20lbs in an old backpack, it works great. But this helps me with ideas on how to fit in the walks into my life

That’s the method right there Bob, I love it! Play your passion and let the exercise support it.
Overtime, the vest is a great evenly distributed load to add to those bar hangs and core movements.
That’s a great idea man. I will get in touch with you soon and we will cook something up. I agree!
