I was told by my doctor that walking was not considered weight-bearing and that I should either wear a weighted vest while walking or use weights.

I had a 10 lb. weighted vest which I gave up because I read they can cause compression fractures. I walk or pedal for cardiac benefit, and also do strength/weight training exercises especially for osteoporosis and use a whole body vibration exercise machine

I understand that walking is a weight bearing exercise. Any more opinions on that?
