Suppose you were offered an inexpensive way to:

• Reduce the risk of heart disease, colon cancer, and diabetes
• Reduce blood pressure and cholesterol levels
• Relieve pain and ease joint mobility in Osteoarthritis
• Reduce depression, stress, and anxiety
• Prevent Osteoporosis

Walking is the exercise most commonly recommended by physicians. It is beneficial in slowing bone loss, and can be done safely at any age. Chiropractors, Physical Therapists, and Doctors recommend the WALKVEST for increasing the benefits of walking,including strengthening the heart, weight loss or weight maintenance, and increasing strength in bones and muscles.


What is The WALKVEST?
The WALKVEST is a lightweight cotton vest with weight pockets strategically located around the mid section so that added weight is evenly distributed for safety and comfort while you walk. Professionally designed for postural benefits and back safety, doctors recommend exercising with the WALKVEST to strengthen bones and muscles while also increasing cardiovascular strength. Walking with the WALKVEST also helps you burn more fat and calories than walking alone, to help you stay lean and fit.

Any activity that causes the body to work against gravity is a weight bearing activity. Research shows that weight bearing exercises best build and maintain bone mass and bone density. WALKING, jogging, stair climbing and dancing are all weight bearing activities.

RESEARCH HAS PROVEN THAT EXERCISE IS THE SINGLE MOST IMPORTANT THING ONE CAN DO TO PRESERVE AND INCREASE ONES BONE MASS.

"Oregon State University Study finds that elderly women can halt bone loss by exercising with a weighted vest."

"In The New England Journal of Medicine researchers concluded that walking two miles a day reduces the chance of heart attack by more than 28%."

Benefits of walking with The WALKVEST include:

• increasing cardiovascular strength
• lowering blood pressure
• reduces stress
• lowering cholesterol
• enhancing stamina and increasing energy
• strengthening bones, muscle, and connective tissue
• muscle toning

Talk to your physician regarding a BMD( bone mineral density) test, and ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN BEFORE ENGAGING IN AN EXERCISING PROGRAM.


Osteoporosis There is a killer out there. A disease called osteoporosis, one that causes bones to thin, weaken, and fracture without warning. Osteoporosis is a major public health threat. More than 28 Million Americans are at risk today, 80% of whom are women. Our bodies do most of their bone building during the first 30 years of life. Bone is constantly being broken down and replaced, and bone loss begins to outpace bone growth between the ages of 30-35. When bone loss is excessive, bones become fragile and are likely to break. Bone loss usually occurs slowly over time, and without symptoms.
