What is the function of walking with load?

When walking, wearing a weight-bearing belt or a leg wrist strap increases the physical load, which is called weight-bearing walking.

The waist is loaded with a belt full of sand, weighing 1 ~ 2.5 kg. The weight of the wrist strap and the leg strap ring are 250 g to 500 g and 500 g to 750 g respectively, which are tied at the upper ends of the wrist and ankle respectively. Walking with load can increase exercise, train endurance, strengthen back muscles and abdominal muscles, and also affect the stomach and other organs of the body. Leg straps can enhance the muscle strength of lower limbs.

Older people are generally not suitable for weight-bearing walking. Middle-aged people and healthy old people, just entering old age, can try, but step by step, less important, shorter walking time. At the same time, self-monitoring, that is, the heartbeat after exercise should not exceed 1 10 times per minute.
