Welcome to 'Weighted Walking,' the New Fitness Trend Everyone Swears By
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. We're often encouraged to walk 10,000 steps a day to boost both our mental and physical health. But what if simply adding some weight to your walks could unlock even greater benefits? Covering long distances on foot while carrying a heavy load is a time-tested tradition among soldiers, with records dating back to 1878. But today, this military endurance exercise has been rebranded as rucking—a simple yet effective workout that involves walking with a weighted backpack—and it's rapidly gaining popularity online. While traditional rucking uses a backpack, many enthusiasts now opt for a weighted vest instead, offering a more evenly distributed load and a hands-free experience. But which kit is best for you? Newsweek spoke to several fitness and health experts about which torso-worn fitness gear is most effective. The answer, it turns out, isn't so clear-cut. "Weighted vests outperform rucks for fat loss," said chiropractor Dr. Mark El-Hayek. "That said, I usually start clients with rucking because it's joint-friendly, has a low barrier to entry, and is excellent for building consistency. The downside is that it doesn't scale well in the long run." This sentiment was echoed by other professionals who noted that weighted walks—whether with a vest or backpack—can significantly increase workout intensity, boost calorie burn, and even improve bone density over time. Rucking: Ideal for Beginners A stock image of a woman running wearing a backpack.

He said rucking—walking with weight on your back—is "safer and more accessible" for most people who are just starting their fitness journey. "It supports fat loss by increasing energy output in a low-impact way, and it integrates easily into daily life. Heck, you could even just use a regular backpack with a water jug or book in it provided you adjust the straps properly. So it has a much lower barrier to entry," he explained.

Newsweek spoke to Helen Leland, 32, a business owner from Charleston, South Carolina, who recently racked up 5 million views on Instagram (@helenleland) with a clip of her rucking. The footage shows Leland enjoying a post-dinner walk wearing a 10lb rucksack— something she does daily for one-mile. She told Newsweek that she discovered rucking when researching how to maintain healthy bones as she ages. "It's improved my posture and my core strength. It's such a simple way to add resistance to something I already LOVE—walking!" she said. Progressing to a Weighted Vest However, once someone is comfortable with the extra weight, Supik—founder and owner of Activate Body Personal Training in Baltimore, Maryland—said they are ready for a weighted vest. "Especially if the goal is to challenge strength endurance with bodyweight exercises," he said, adding that consistency is key to fat loss. A TikTok Advocate for the Vest Dr. MaryBeth Asenime, 42, recently turned to TikTok to explain why she favors the weighted vest (@backtalkwith_dr.a). The March 12 clip has almost 35,000 views. The chiropractor, based in Houston, Texas, told Newsweek that she has been carrying 16 to 40 lbs for the last four years.

TiKTok/@backtalkwith_dr "I have tried rucking and I think it's great as long as you are comfortable with it and conditioned," she added. But she favors the vest, which she uses two to three times per week for 30 minutes to two hours, depending on training. She explained she's noticed endurance with other cardio workouts. "I prefer the weighted vest because it feels more balanced and comfortable during workouts," she told Newsweek. "When I used a weighted backpack for rucking, I found the weight pulled on my shoulders and strained my lower back over time, especially if it wasn't packed just right. "With the vest, the weight sits closer to my center of gravity, which not only feels more natural but also allows me to train more efficiently without adjusting or worrying about shifting weight. It's become my go-to for adding intensity to walks, circuits, and bodyweight strength work." Pros and Cons of Weighted Vests El-Hayek, the clinic owner at Spine and Posture Care in Sydney, Australia, shared the pros and cons of using weighted vests. Pros: Full body engagement, especially through the core and glutes Short sessions still create strong output Works well with stairs, circuits, or even rehab drills Cons: Poor posture or form often overloads joints like knees, hips, or the lower back Most vests rub, shift, or trap heat if they don't fit properly Not beginner-friendly, as it requires a solid base of strength and control Benefits and Drawbacks of Rucking "Both weighted vests and rucks can support fat loss," Supik told Newsweek. "But only if they're part of a broader, sustainable movement habit paired with nutrition." He also provided a breakdown of the pros and cons of rucking backpacks: Pros: Weight is carried low and close to your center of mass, which reduces impact on the spine and knees You can combine it with daily activities (walk the dog, run errands) without looking like you're wearing exercise equipment Easy to add/remove weight or swap backpacks depending on the day Cons:

UK's top 20 'forgotten' baby names going out of fashion
New data shows a major shift in how parents have named their newborns over the past 10 years, so see if your child's name is among those that have stayed in vogue. While baby names often ebb and flow in popularity, recent years have marked a distinct shift away from some contemporary or trend-led choices. Baby name fashions wax and wane, with modern and retro selections frequently fluctuating in favour. As ageless classics make a comeback, it seems other once-fashionable baby names are subtly falling out of vogue. This is according to the life insurance team at Compare the Market, who scrutinised name trends from 2013 to 2023 using data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) to reveal the UK's most dwindling names. The research indicates that some formerly popular baby names are now swiftly losing their appeal. For boys, Leland has experienced the sharpest drop, plummeting by 96%, followed by Tyler-James at 95% and Patryk at 92%. Among girls, Alexa has seen the greatest decrease, down by 97%, possibly due to its link with Amazon's voice assistant. Kaitlin is hot on its heels, having dropped by more than 96%. In terms of traditional baby names, Maeve, has witnessed a remarkable 1,854% surge in usage. Of Irish origin, Maeve leapt from 57 babies named Maeve in 2013 to a whopping 1,114 in 2023, reports the Express. It was closely trailed by the similar name Margot, which enjoyed a 1,764% rise. Ezra and Nellie rank third, having increased by 791% and 1,084% respectively. The name Atlas, of Greek origin and mythological significance, has seen a staggering increase of 1,775% – from just 12 boys named Atlas in 2013 to 225 in 2023. Chester follows closely with an 856% surge.

Baby name with powerful meaning faces extinction while two Irish names make comeback
Baby names can be a right bug-bearer for parents who may find it difficult settling on a moniker that they both like. Choosing a name for your child is a rather daunting task simply because they will have it for the rest of their lives. But as baby naming trends grow bolder and more imaginative , we are also seeing the decline of many once-popular choices. So, which names are becoming less common, and fading more into obscurity with each passing year? The Life Insurance team at Compare the Market has analysed baby name trends from 2013 to 2023 to uncover the UK's most declining names. They used the latest data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS) to do so. In what may come as a surprise to some, Alexa is the girl's name facing extinction in the UK. This historically rich name, which is the female version of Alex, means 'defender of men' or 'protector of men' and is of Greek origin . The data shows a striking drop in the number of babies named Alexa. The number of babies called Alexa decreased from 319 in 2013 to only eight in 2023, a decline of 97 per cent. This decline coincides with the launch of Amazon's Alexa voice assistant in 2014, suggesting it may have influenced naming trends. Kaitlin is a close second, falling by over 96 per cent. Kaitlin is an alternative spelling of Caitlin, a girl's name of Irish origin , meaning "pure". Meanwhile, Leland is the boy's name that has seen the steepest decline in popularity over the past decade, dropping by 96 per cent. In 2013, 136 babies were named Leland, compared to just six in 2023. Once appreciated for its natural, outdoorsy feel, the name has quietly fallen by the wayside. For girls, Maeva claims the top spot for names that are skyrocketing in popularity. This elegant name, meaning 'welcome' in French, has grown by a whopping 10,000 per cent over the past decade. And the second name having a surge is Fiadh, which rose by 3,300 per cent. This girl's moniker comes from the Irish fia, meaning "deer" and "wildness." Elsewhere, Irish titles continue to do extremely well in the findings. Maeve is the top-trending tradition baby girl name, having increased by nearly 2,000 per cent over the past decade. Maeve means "intoxicating" or "she who rules". Irish mythology fans will recognise Maeve as the Queen of Connacht and the Goddess of Love and Desire . The late Maeve Binchy was also a hugely popular author and journalist . "Whether you go for a traditional name or something more unique, we hope our research helps new parents find the perfect name for their little one," Tom Lyon from the life insurance team at Compare the Market said.
