Comment on Weighted Vests: Experiences Wanted by krlr

Can you try replacing the current weights with,say, beanbags to make it lighter & still keep it even? Guess they might rattle & shift… maybe small paperbacks, or water soaked washclothes (in baggies)? Hmmm…

While I don’t have any direct experience with weighted vests, I was speaking to a friend lastnight who said that she had tried weighted vests with her son, but she found them fairly ineffective for him, and that he now wears a compression vest at school, which works much better and keeps him calm and more focused. I hadn’t heard of compression vests before, but she said it’s kind of like a wet suit. Good luck!

I had this Nietzsche quote translated into Gaelic and tattooed on my shoulder:

“What does not kill me, makes me stronger.”

I liked them last week, and was thrilled to find out that they are fairly close to me in Virginia!

Thank you so much, I’ll definitely take a look. We’re really enjoying ‘special words’ at the moment.
