I walk with a 20-lb weight in a backpack and have seen improvement in my back and core strength. This is usually just 20-30 minutes a day.

You can get them on amazon. I think the studies used vests between 8-12lbs.

Other than walking as fast as I can, adding a weighted vest/ankle weights, is there anything else I can do to make the most of this walk? My goal is weight loss.

Pump your arms while you walk.

I have one from Amazon - I wear it over my shirt or jacket. I got a 12 lb but recommend starting lighter than that. 5-8 would be good unless you lift weights already.

It sounds hella sweaty! Do you wear it over or under a shirt?

DP, this is a good idea. I might start wearing one on my morning walk with my dog.

Stairs, hills. Turning that 20 minute walk into a jog.

I have 30-minutes during my workday where I can sneak off for a 20-minute walk. I want to start amping up my workouts ahead of summer. Other than walking as fast as I can, adding a weighted vest/ankle weights, is there anything else I can do to make the most of this walk? My goal is weight loss.
