Weight-Lifting and Diabetes
|
|
Diabetics who have "diabetic retinopathy" should avoid weight-lifting. Blood pressures rise to enormous levels during weight-lifting. The tiny vessels in the eye are susceptible to these high pressures.

| Description:
|
This is IronWear's weighted "Speed Vest, short." Their Speed Vests are made with breathable mesh, whereas their "Uni-Vests" are made with nylon and neoprene. This Speed Vest can hold 1 to 11-lbs of weight. Available in Black (as shown) or in Neon Yellow.
|
| How It Works:
|
The vest contains pockets so that you can evenly distribute 1 to 11-lbs of weight. It fits tight against your torso so you can do a variety of activities - including running - while wearing it.
|
| Ideal For:
|
Anyone. Older exercisers might prefer these weighted vests over using dumbbells so that they can keep their hands free to hold onto something for stability while exercising. A weighted vest is also the safest way to add resistance while doing waist bends.
|
| Why It's Cool:
|
The coolest aspect of IronWear's weighted vests are the weights themselves: they are flexible! Each weight is 1/2-in thick, 2-in wide, and 4.5-in long.
