Are you considering buying one of those weighted vests you see all the menopause influencers wearing these days? Then this episode is for you, because we are going to see if weighted vests really are the secret fitness and bone remodeling weapon they're hyped up to be... or just another overblown trend?

I'm breaking down the pros and cons of weighted vests, who might actually benefit, who should steer clear, and how to use them safely if you decide to give it a try.

We cover:

• The pros and cons of using a weighted vest

• How weighted vests may support bone density and muscle strength

• Cardiovascular and calorie-burning benefits (and limitations)

• Important risks for joints, posture, and injuries

• Special considerations for hip and knee replacements

• What the science actually says about effectiveness
