      Wearing a weight-bearing vest while walking can help you burn 10% more calories. For safety reasons, do not carry more than 20% of your body weight (for example, a person weighing 60 kg female , the load should not exceed 12 kg). If you don't like this weight-bearing method, you can also try holding two long poles in your hands. Although they weigh only 0.5 kilograms, they can help you burn 20-25% more calories without any side effects.

      Advice for you: Walk with a pole for 30 minutes every day

      You can refer to the following data: walking briskly for 30 minutes consumes 210 calories; walking with a weight-bearing vest for 30 minutes consumes 231 calories; walking with a long pole for 30 minutes consumes 252 calories. Still hesitant? Hurry up and hit the road with your pole!
