    Episode Description:


    You’ve seen people wearing weighted vests at the gym, on hikes, and even during everyday tasks—but are they actually worth it?

    In this episode, I break down the real pros and cons of weighted vests, who they’re great for, when to use them, and when they’re just unnecessary extra stress on your body.


    We’ll cover:


    ✅ How weighted vests increase strength, endurance, and calorie burn


    ✅ The risks (like joint stress and poor posture) when they’re overused


    ✅ The best ways to incorporate a vest into your training


    ✅ What to do instead if you’re not ready for one


    ✅ How our coaching at Catalyst can help you use smart tools for smarter results
