Weighted Vests/Clothing

Does anyone use weighted gear for their workouts? How would you rate them? Do you run/do cardio with them on, or just lift?

Don't. It's stupid

Obviously just look at rock lee from naruto

I know piccolo wore weighted clothes and it seemed to help him with cell

Dunno about real life tho

Don't do any type of weighted cardio like that. All it will do is fuck up your joints.

I wear a giant turtle shell on my back while doing farm work and other chores that involve rigorous functional strength movements. I am now one of the strongest humans on the planet. Can't recommend enough OP

just get fat and then cut if thats your game

yeah, like others said, its commonly thought that weighted gear is harmful for your joints, and although i cant explain the science behind it, it seems legit

theres a reason severely obese people have joint problems

and while wearing weighted gear isnt the same as being severely obese, the sudden significant increase in weight is something your body/joints arent used to, as opposed to an obese person that got big over time

maybe just keep lifting/grow muscle, and then as you gain weight, your muscles will be the weighted gear that you carry around at all times

or wear weighted gear and be like brock lee
and end up with fucking up everything in his body
that nigga always wearing bandages for a reason yo

I use one for when I do basic shit like push ups and pull ups, but cardio in it sounds retarded like the others are saying.

Weighted vests get used a lot by firefighters (standardized fitness tests), and I use them a lot on stairclimber workouts. Nothing fast, just moderate climbing speed with the extra weight.
