Walking with weights is falsely believed to work the muscles of the arms... actually it does very little...

In order to work a muscle you have to put some resistance of it... such as when doing knee bends, sit ups or push ups... but about the only thing that walking with weights will do is to make you look like a nut to anyone who knows anything about training...
