How long to wear PE weights

How long do YOU wear them for? (If you use them, smartass ;) )

Would wearing them whilst at work be ok?

You can see where I’m going with this lol

I wear mine for about three hours at a time.

Wearing my PE weight

What would your opinion be about wearing them whilst at work?
Approximatly 8 hours?

The way I wear mine there would be no problem as long as I could take it off for a mid-day break and I didn’t have to do any running about/strenuous activity.

Hey Slacky,

The amount of time you can wear these things depends entirely on what you can get away with. Not knowing what your work is puts any adviser at a disadvantage. I wear mine all day except for occasional breaks when necessary. If you were a teacher standing in front of a class I don’t think that would be cool. Wouldn’t be long and you’d find yourself bending over to make eye contact with your students starring at your crotch. YKWIM?

Let your common sense guide you. Seriously the idea would be to wear them as much as possible.

LOL, I work in a store, filling shelves among other things… . .
I would wear them as much as possible, I was just worried about circulation problems for longer sessions?

As far as circulation problems go, after a while you’ll come to an understanding when you get a certain feeling you’ll know that you need to pay attention to what’s going on because in general I’ve found that if I begin to get uncomfortable the condition doesn’t get better. I’ve just made it a rule that if I get uncomfortable I just go as soon as possible and make a change of wrap or unload or whatever is needed. If I wait things can get pretty miserable. It usually is a wrap thing that can be straightened out by rewrapping. Two things in general are the causes: 1. Too tight. Causes swelling of the head and great aching. 2. Pinched skin due to not enough lead wrap inside the ring before the holding pile. IOW skin gets pinched between the ring and the wrap.

Most of the time you’re not going to have any trouble. There are a lot of variables that cause various problems such as swelling from rigorous hanging sessions. Shortness due to, again, rigorous hanging sessions.

If your wrap is correct you’ll maintain a pink head and can pretty much ignore the continuous tug.

Thanks Monty, order placed by the way, hope to hear back soon :)
