WHAT IS A WEIGHTED VEST

A Weighted Vest is simply a vest, made of heavy-duty fabric that allows you to add and subtract weight to increase the intensity of your workout.

The common benefit of using a weighted vest is to add weight to certain exercises while raising the intensity, like: walking, running, jogging, hiking. A weighted vest is perfect for any speed or agility drills.

HOW MUCH WEIGHT DO YOU NEED TO START

HOW DOES THE WEIGHTED VEST WORK

Using a training vest during your workouts will put your muscles under more stress, increasing the amount of strength you develop. During cardiovascular exercises, the extra weight will make your movements more strenuous, putting your body into a higher oxygen deficit-increasing your aerobic endurance.

WORKOUT VEST FOR WEIGHT LOSE

Anytime you make your body work harder to accomplish an exercise, more calories will be burned to produce the energy you need to finish that exercise.

The higher the intensity, the more oxygen your body needs to keep your muscles working. The Workout Vest will create a more challenging experience that will make your heart beat faster to supply oxygenated blood to your fatigued muscles, which will burn more calories.

If your goal is to lose weight, then wear the Weighted Vest while you walk, jog, run, or hike.
