Weighted Vest Men Women, Weight Vest for Women Workout Equipment for Strength Training Running

Pristine and well-packaged. Beautiful, bright yellow color will make me very visible on my walks, which is what I was hoping, as I walk on the gravel and paved roads around my rural homestead, and the drivers aren't often very careful. Also, there's the DUST I choke on quite frequently, so bright colors are a must. ;) The vest is heavy and will take some getting used to. It is just the right amount of "difficult" for an "older model" woman trying to be pro-active in building back some muscle mass, core strength, and bone density. It isn't quite 10% of my body weight, but it is enough to be getting on with. It's an odd sensation, making me feel a little top-heavy and wobbly, which I think will be outstanding in re-training my core. My shoulders are held at a much better position when walking with this weight on them, and I found that my hands didn't swell as much. (I've suspected impingement in my shoulders for years.) This is like wearing a heavy backpack, only the weight is much better distributed. It still fired up all the little muscles between my ribs and up and down my back to wear it, and I had to stop and adjust it several times to stop the cramping. But after about a 30 minute walk (much shorter than my usual walk), the cramping stopped and I felt great. I am going to LOVE this thing! I also wore it during a short bout of bodyweight exercises to re-train my hip and hamstring muscles, and let me tell you, they were definitely "shouting" for joy after just five sets of 30 second reps! Boy, do I have my work cut out for me, getting back into any kind of shape. But I'm hopeful that this very functional and practical way to incorporate weights into my life again without having to pay for a gym membership or other expensive equipment will do the trick. Or at least help. And the fact that this beautiful, pristine vest was "used" and still came in the full package without a mark or dent or tear made it a great value for the money. The only thing that is a bit of a downer is the outrageously appalling stench of the thing, and the fact that it is not water-resistant or water-proof. Walking in the rain will be very impractical with this on, as it is too bulky to wear under a rain jacket, and the packaging cautions against getting it wet. Now, that seems kind of silly from a design standpoint, to make an item that is likely to get very sweaty during one's workout not resistant to moisture, to say nothing of what one could get up to while rucking. I love to trail walk. There are often streams or unexpected rainstorms or other things that could potentially get the vest wet, and it would be super nice if the manufacturer would address this design flaw. In order to increase the versatility of the product, it really should be water resistant, at the very least, and downright water proof to make it a banger of a product. The price point is wonderful and makes it accessible to most, but this one flaw might be a deal-breaker and deprive them of a sale, so this really needs to be addressed, in my opinion. :) I will push past the horrific stench, because I have great confidence that this item will be a valuable addition to my arsenal in the fight against age, loss of muscle mass, loss of bone density, and the battle of the meno-belly. It's kind of fun to wear (even if I have to leave the bottom strap so loose it literally does nothing because I don't want The Girls crushed beyond recognition), & a lovely color so I feel less like a Space Marine and more like a woman in the fight of her life to retain some semblance of fitness as she faces the big 6-0 approaching much faster than she is ready for! Cheers!

I decided I wanted a weighted vest and looked at all the options I could find. This one seemed like a good choice, so I got the 10 lb one. Very comfortable and well made. And when a family member came over a few weeks later and saw what I’d bought, he said I picked a really good one - that this one was weighted in just the right way and was a quality item (trust me, when this family member approves, it’s high praise!) I ended up getting a 15 lb one as well. I will say that you need to start slowly with a weighted vest. If you haven’t worn one before, go with a lighter one at first and get used to it. I know there’s a temptation to think you need to start at a high weight, but this is not the time to over exert. The 15 lb was too much, too soon. I found that I was better staying with the 10 a bit longer. But whatever weight you end up with, I think this is a quality item that fits well, adjusts as needed and is something that will do exactly what you’re looking for.

This weighted vest is legit. It fits snug without feeling tight, doesn’t bounce around, and the weight is distributed evenly so it doesn’t dig into your shoulders. I’ve used it for walks, bodyweight workouts, and even a few runs, and it stays comfortable the whole time. The straps adjust easily, the material feels durable, and it doesn’t trap heat like some other vests I’ve tried. It adds just the right amount of challenge without feeling bulky or awkward. Honestly, it made my workouts way more effective. If you’re looking for a vest that’s secure, comfortable, and actually feels good to move in — this one’s a winner.

Does the job. 15 lbs is no joke. But it's comfortable. I feel like using it a couple times a day is beneficial. I use a walking pad during work - and will put this on if I don't have a meeting, even for 15 minutes. I think for me, the biggest benefit I can feel (because I can't see if it's helping bone density) is balance. Four stars because of the way it smells, I keep putting it in the sun to see if that will help, but so far it still smells.

I didn't want to jump on this bandwagon, but I'm certainly glad I did. This weighted vest is fantastic. I like the double straps in the front since I have a larger chest; they are easy to adjust. I like how the arm holes are snug underneath my armpits, which helps avoid chafing on my arms. This vest costs a bit more than others but it is well worth the cost. It is a very high-quality vest, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to make an investment in one. A good rule of thumb is to purchase a vest that is at least 10% of your weight. I do wish I had gotten the heavier one, but this one will work great for a while.

Its is great exactly what I needed! I love how it forms to your body comfortably and makes it easier to work out in. The water resistant is great to keep it clean for sweating. Ideal for anyone who wants to lose weight and build strength. Great quality im glad I decided to buy this out of all the others I saw

So far I’ve had a good experience with this weighted vest. I’m about 149 pounds and typically wear a medium to large shirt, and the fit is comfortable and secure. I started slow by using the 10-lb vest for just five minutes during walks, and it definitely takes some time to get adjusted to the extra weight, but that’s expected. The quality feels good and it stays in place while moving. Overall, I’m really happy with it and think it’s a great option for beginners easing into weighted workouts.

I’ve been using this on walks and it works great. I like that it doesn’t look like a bomb vest, it looks pretty normal (maybe slightly like a life jacket in the bright colors though). Mine was used but it’s holding up fine so hopefully it lasts for a while. I haven’t noticed any iron dust coming out but the initial smell was pretty bad, I let it off gas for a couple weeks in my garage. I find it comfortable and easy to get on and off. The only thing I wish it had was adjustable weight, but I think the back pocket could fit a small weight plate

Veste lestée compacte qui laisse l'impression d'avoir un sac à dos lourd mais très bien ajusté sur le dos. J'ai acheté cette veste lestée (15 lbs) pour m'entraîner dans un sport de raquette : la veste lestée ne nuit PAS aux mouvements de l'épaule avec la raquette, même sur un terrain de sport. La veste ne couvre pas toute la hauteur du tronc (comme le ferait un sac à dos) : elle couvre plutôt la portion haute du tronc, mais laisse les bras complètement libres. Globalement, excellente répartition du poids, ajustement sur les épaules et confortable : très bon achat.

High quality

To be honest i bought this on sale .... but i would pay full price if it wasnt!!!! Had others try it on ranging weights of 280lbs to 190lbs And it fit everyone with the adustable straps and they ordered some as well after trying mine. ***The comfort is amazing!!!!**** i love wearing it throughout the day. I really am not a gym person or someone who runs nowhere(lol bless your heart if you do) this i can def do and not feel like im working out!!!

Love this vest, use it outdoors and indoors on the treadmill.

Comfortable. Smell isnt so bad. Not too heavy so I could wear a whole day.
