People questioning my weighted vest As a passive workout, i like to wander around wearing a weighted vest. Nothing too crazy, just 10LBS. I do try to conceal it though, but some times people notice and ask me about it. I give them my reason, and they say I'm causing undue stress on my lower joints, but for some reason, they can't explain fatties and the effect they have on their lower joints.  TL;DR, why am I being shat upon for wearing an extra 10 LBS, but fatties get a free pass for the extra 100 LBS of fat?
