Millions of women in perimenopause and menopause worry about osteoporosis, bone loss, and hip fractures. Weighted vests are suddenly everywhere on TikTok, Instagram, and even in doctor’s offices. But do they really build bone density for women over 40 and 50, or is resistance training still the most effective way to prevent osteoporosis? In this episode, Chalene Johnson breaks down the science, the myths, and the surprising benefits of weighted vests for women navigating perimenopause and menopause. You’ll hear the real research, what actually helps protect your bones, and how to safely use a vest for balance, posture, and strength as you age. With insights from orthopedic surgeon and menopause expert Dr. Vonda Wright, this episode separates fact from hype so you can age powerfully and protect your health.
