    My epic journey wearing a 20+ lbs (10kg) weight vest every day for an entire week! When I take it off will I be able to jump higher, run faster, be stronger?
    In this video I test myself before and after as well as take you through my day to day experience.

    As a Marine, i can tell you that spending a couple of months wearing 40-80 lbs all day every day, at the end of a nice 18 hour long day, or longer, you feel amazing, except your back hurts a shit ton, your knees and ankles are on fire, and your feet… we won’t talk about your feet… but you can get a lot stronger if you don’t overdo it. Be very careful if you wanna try this at home

    To ensure accuracy in the experiment, I suggest starting with a baseline week of testing without the vest. Following that, you can incorporate the vest for a week and conduct the tests again. In the third week, we can repeat the tests without the vest and compare the results from week one and three. This method will allow us to better understand the impact of wearing a 20-pound vest for a week. I hope this suggestion is helpful to you.

      @@calopsita4465 Yep. I might start off with doing some 'rucking' on good terrain close to home that won't be brutal on your joints. Toss 40lb or so in a pack and do a short hike on relatively even terrain, then up the distance repeatedly. As someone who has joint problems from long-term carrying of a lot of extra weights over all sorts of environments, at 51 I'd want to be careful. Obviously they're not a beginner as they're doing snow-shoe hikes period, but I'd be careful about integrating 'just add weight' to day to day life with all of its variable requirements on the joints. 'Training hikes' over less uneven terrain with a heavier pack would probably be safer for the knees and ankles, get the body used to hauling a 40-50lb pack and a 30lb pack will feel substantially lighter even over a longer trail.

      Try doing pull ups in pyramid reps too. Good gains from that.
      Also want to do 8-12 reps. If you can do over 20 pull ups, try adding weight ie- 20 pounds Max out.
      Take off weight do another 4 or 5 pull ups or as many as you can.
      Use resistance bands and Max out once more.
      (No rest period in between)

Long term, protecting your joints and having opportunities to recover allow you to more consistently work out. Consistency is the key to getting in shape.

Its kinda weird to finally have the "vest" off, but it certainly is noticable. A bit hard to measure of cause because Keto also means that you loose muscle when fasting but regaining when eating & its a lot of protein too. Of cause before i got winded just taking a few steps & now i can run up stairs. Not that im afraid of doing a "elephant in a glass store" but i cant help myself walking a bit carefully still. Changing habits takes time i guess :)

    In military you get used to wearing a bulletproof vest all the time and then you end up doing everything you do wearing it.

    Its a little like hiking with a heavy backpack. The first couple of days it's this annoying baggage on your back, then for increasing moments you forget it even exists until the end of the day, and then you become one with the backpack.

    When you mentioned Goku in the first minute of this video, I instantly knew I'm going to enjoy this video. You have a new subscriber :)

    Being in law enforcement I find it extremely important to be in shape but very difficult to find time to go to the gym. I just purchased the workout book to knock some of these out before or after shifts or hell I may knock some out while I work off duty details. Glad I found the channel during my 3am exploration of RUclips lol 😂

      COVID restrictions gave me 45m windows to gym every day. Stopwatch your breaks between sets to 60sec and never stop moving. You can fit the workout in, and have more energy for duty
