Aldi has impressed shoppers by launching a new item that could help people ‘burn more calories’<\/a> without needing to go to the gym. The supermarket<\/a> is stocking a \u00a312.99 Weighted Vest<\/a> that ‘increases the effectiveness of strength and endurance training,’ according to the product description.<\/p>\n Weighing approximately 6kg, Aldi<\/a> says: “You’ll definitely be sticking to your New <\/a>Year’<\/a>s resolution of getting stronger with this Weighted Vest!” The product description adds that the vest features reflective strips, and it is offered in a universal size with adjustable straps.<\/p>\n Weighted vests are often popular among fitness enthusiasts, as they can help people burn more calories while performing everyday activities such as cleaning or going for a walk. Verywell Health<\/a> explains: “Walking with a weighted vest burns more calories by making your muscles work harder.<\/p>\n “Wearing a weighted vest while walking helps improve balance and build bone density. A weighted vest increases the intensity of your cardio workout, boosting heart health.”<\/p>\n As such, people could use the item to level up their gym workouts; however, it could also help people lose weight without needing to go to the gym at all. The NHS<\/a> recommends adults aged 19 to 64 should do at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity activity a week or 75 minutes of vigorous intensity activity a week, and do strengthening activities that work all the major muscle groups on at least two days a week.<\/p>\n Content cannot be displayed without consent<\/p>\n The NHS says muscle-strengthening activities include yoga, pilates, tai chi, lifting weights, working with resistance bands, and doing exercises that use your own body weight. More information is available on the NHS website.<\/a><\/p>\n According to shoppers, Aldi’s weighted vest is a ‘great find’. The item impressed customers when it was showcased on TikTok by Devon Murphy, posting under the handle @Devonmurphyx.<\/p>\n Highlighting the vest, she wrote: “Fitness girls. Run to Aldis. Only \u00a312.99 for a weighted vest.” Replying to Devon’s video, one viewer said: “Oooh great find.” A fan agreed: “Wow great find.” Someone else shared: “Going tomorrow!” and in a comment, Devon said: “6kg quite heavy, definitely get a sweat on with it.”<\/p>\n Aldi’s Weighted Vest(Image: Aldi)<\/p>\n The Weighted Vest is available to shop in-store now.
