Weighted Vest Buying Guide 2019
What is a Weighted Vest?
A weighted vest is a fitness tool that as pockets built in to hold additional weighted materials, such as steel bars.
The purpose of a weighted vest is to add more resistance to your workout. Add more weight to your own body-weight.
This is really good because a weighted vest will trick your body into thinking that it is heavier than it actually is and this will enhance the training session and weight-loss.
Who would benefit from wearing a weighted vest?
Anyone who wants to take their training to the next level would benefit from wearing a weighted vest.
What I really like about wearing a weighted vest is the fact that you do not need to change your current fitness routine, because wearing the weighted vest does that for you. And you can add the extra weight over time as your fitness increases.
You can use a weighted vest for:
- Workout routines
- Weight training
- Bike Riding
- Exercise bike training
- Cross-fit training
- Cross-fit Epilator
- Treadmill
- Walking
- Jogging
- Weight-loss
- To build up resistance and strength
Just to give you some ideas of when you could use a Weighted vest.
Benefits of wearing a weighted vest
The good thing about wearing a weight vest is that you do not have to be a professional athlete. But I would state that wearing a weighted vest will change the dynamics of your workout and the weight should be added gradually and you should not attempt to add all the weight at once. This can cause you injury.
The benefits of wearing a weight vest is really beneficial and just by wearing it whilst doing your daily chores can increase your metabolic rate which means you will burn more calories. How good is that?
Just walking around your home with a weight vest may sound simple enough but it can increase the intensity of the activity.
You should start light and then increase gradually.

But I would state that wearing a weighted vest will change the dynamics of your workout and the weight should be added gradually and you should not attempt to add all the weight at once. This can cause you injury.
