Why use a weighted vest for cross-training and weight training?
By adding extra weights to your bodyweight exercises (which have become easy) you increase the difficulty and encourage your muscles to develop. This weighted vest helps you gain strength, explosiveness and muscular endurance.
It's an essential accessory for improving your training!
Why choose this new weighted vest?
With this new weighted vest, you can add up to 14 kg (by adding cast-iron discs, for example), unlike the old version which had a maximum limit of 10 kg.
Our design team has redesigned the shoulder straps for extra comfort when doing weighted exercises. The system has also been redesigned to adapt to all body shapes.
Lastly, a rip-tab area has been added so you can personalise your weighted vest with patches from your box!
