Weighted Vest for All Day
Weighted vests have become increasingly popular in recent years as a tool to provide calming, comforting pressure throughout the day. The vests are worn over your clothes and contain removable weights, usually made of steel or iron pellets, that apply gentle pressure to your torso. This pressure has been shown to have multiple benefits for both mental and physical health.
In this blog post, we'll explore the pros of wearing a weighted vest all day and how products like the PYVOT weighted clothing line make this comfortable and convenient.
Benefits of All-Day Wear
There are several key advantages to wearing a weighted vest for extended periods during your daily routine:
Reduced Stress and Anxiety
Similar to weighted blankets, the light pressure of a weighted vest applied to your chest, shoulders and upper back has been found to have a calming effect on the nervous system. This can help reduce feelings of stress, anxiety, and overwhelm throughout the day. The vest activates deep pressure touch receptors under the skin which increases vagal nerve activity - promoting relaxation.
Increased Focus and Attention
The comforting pressure of a weighted vest helps minimize restlessness and distractibility for many people. By providing calming sensory input, a weighted vest can allow you to feel more grounded and focused on tasks. This makes them helpful for work, studying, reading, and detail-oriented activities.
Improved Posture and Body Awareness
The distribution of extra weight on your upper body from a weighted vest gently reminds you to stand taller and keep your shoulders back. This cue to maintain proper posture can lead to increased body awareness. The feedback provided by the weight allows you tune into your position and movement more throughout the day.
Supports Movement Goals
Weighted vests can help add extra resistance to your everyday activities and workouts. The adjustable weights allow you to gradually increase the load you carry to maintain strength and keep challenging your fitness level. This makes weighted vests useful for athletic training, outdoor sports, walking, running, and exercising at home.
All-Day Wear Made Easy with PYVOT
A key hurdle many people face with weighted clothing is comfort and wearability for long periods. Products from PYVOT are designed specifically with all-day wear in mind featuring:
