Osteoporosis
The SmartVest offers a research based method of helping to prevent and treat osteoporosis. You can use it when you fitness walk, exercise, or just during daily activities.
Strength-training, weight-training, and resistance-training are all different names for programs that progressively overload your muscles to help you gain strength and stamina.
Involving some form of strength-training in your activities improves your health and fitness level as well as increasing your bone density.
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by loss of bone mass which makes you fragile and increases the risk of fracture. It is far more common in women then men. 4 out of 10 women and 1 out of 10 men over the age of 65 develop osteoporosis.
Women's bone mass reaches its apex during their 20's and 30's. At which point, bone loss occurs at a rate of .5 to 1.0% per year until menopause comes calling. Then the loss is accelerated because of estrogen deficiency. The point: aging takes its toll, so start a program to help maintain peak bone mass as early as possible. Your programs should provide an overload to your body that creates a force greater then normal, daily activities. Well, here's an option.
All age groups of women can add friendly on-body resistance to do exactly that. Its made specifically for women and allows total control over the amount of resistance. It also helps posture and burns calories. The SmartVest.
Medical note: A resistance training program for osteoporosis prevention and treatment should include the functional option of using a weighted vest while walking.* *Shaw, J.M. and K.A. Witzke.

Researchers are telling you that vested workouts work. You should give yourself the best one available. You deserve a custom fit, a specific women's model (designed & tested by a woman), that's slimming (comfort compression fit), exudes quality, is washable, and will give you years of healthy fitness. Nobody makes a weighted vest that compares to the SmartVest. If you want the best?
