Using wrist weights during walking can provide a more challenging workout by adding extra load to the body, leading to increased muscle activity, elevated heart rate, and enhanced cardio benefits. However, the light load from wrist weights may not significantly contribute to muscle growth. To truly strengthen muscles, heavier weights should be used in resistance training. Prior to incorporating wrist weights into walks, individuals should ensure proper form, start with lighter weights, and gradually increase the challenge over time. Consideration should be given to potential risks for those with injuries or bone density issues.
