APEXUP Adjustable Weighted Vest, 4-10lb/12-18lb/20-32lb Vest with 6 Ironsand Weights and Large Pocket, Weight Vest for Men Women Strength Training, Running, Walking

I genuinely love this weighted vest — it’s been a game changer for my routine. The way it distributes weight in both the front and back feels really comfortable and balanced, and in my opinion it’s especially great for women looking to build strength, overall health, and bone density. I use it weekly, usually in the 20–32 lb range, and it always leaves me feeling worked in the best way (full-body soreness without feeling wrecked). It’s perfect for 1–3 mile walks, longer after you get used to it and once I’m warmed up I can even jog to really amp up the workout. You could wear just cleaning the house and feel the benefits. Unexpectedly really helping me gain lung strength. I grew up around second hand smoke and didn’t realize until my late 20s that this has always probably held back my cardio health. Working on that with these feels very positive. The design is well done and doesn’t feel overly bulky or corny. It seems well made, comes with weight bags, and the front pocket is actually useful — I can fit my phone, keys, tissues, and even a small bottle sitting straight up and down. I liked it so much that I told my mom and her husband about it and they ended up purchasing one too. Highly recommend if you want an effective, wearable way to add resistance to everyday movement.

absolutely love this weighted vest! It’s incredibly comfortable to wear, and I really appreciate how easy it is to adjust both the weight and the waist tension so it stays secure without shifting around during workouts. The front pocket is a game-changer—it fits my phone perfectly and keeps it handy without getting in the way. One of my favorite things about this vest is its versatility. When I’m traveling and don’t have access to a gym, I take it off and use it for front and lateral raises. It doubles as a weight and adds so much value beyond just wearing it. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a practical, comfortable, and multi-use fitness tool!

Very comfortable and is very ideal for working out. The weights sit nice and snugged in their compartments without causing any discomfort to the wearer. Quality is pretty good. Doesn’t bring about any doubts of it snapping or coming undone. Straps on the side are adjustable to the wearer and could even be replaced for a strong strap. Velcro is pretty durable as well.

I'm 5'11 and 190 lbs. after massive Mounjaro weight loss over the last year. I walk for fitness nearly every night, but even an hour of walking was proving not to provide much benefit these days. In order to add resistance to the walks, I bought the APEXUP Adjustable Weighted Vest (20-32lb). I debated the size, worrying that the 20-pound minimum might be too much at first, but I wanted enough of a challenge that it would be worth it over the long run. The 20-pound weight is enough to be a challenge over several miles, without being uncomfortable. I have terrible posture, and have noticed that the weight of the vest reminds me to keep a more upright body position. I have only worn it three times, but can already tell that the extra resistance is going to really be a benefit. The bib-style vest was more appealing to me than the vest style. I slip it over my head and it stays comfortably in place. The side straps under my arms keep it snug, but remain comfortable and unnoticed. I went with the orange because I mostly walk at night to avoid the Texas heat, and visibility is a big priority for me. The bright orange color will stand out and complement the reflective strips in oncoming headlights. Many vests filled with small iron fill on Amazon have a mix of poor reviews due to tears and leaks at the seams. Only time will tell for me, but out of the box the material seems reasonably tough and durable. Keeping in mind the risk of leaks, I am careful to hang it up on a heavy duty hanger after use, and don't handle it roughly. My only complaint, and thus the loss of one star, is the strong synthetic scent. Not offensive, but always present. Even more so in the hot sun. I've smelled a lot worse, especially from cheap products from China. I'd just be happier without it. The base 20-pound weight cannot be removed, so I am not going to attempt to wash it.

This item is heavy coming right out of the box. Once you get it out of the box you can choose to keep all the weights on the vest or remove the extra weights. The vest is durable and easy to put on and easy to adjust the side straps to make the vest fit better around the sides. The vest is comfortable to wear as the weight is evenly distributed. It can be worn with all the weights or none of the extra weights. To take out the extra weights there is a cover over the weights that is velcro'd. They are small bags that can be removed one by one.

Vest is comfortable and easily adjustable. The pocket/pouch in the front makes a great storage space for phone/keys. The added weight really helps getting a better workout and since it's adjustable with the amount of weight you put in, you can work a little harder by adding weight. Seems to have a durable build, since the seams are seemingly well stitched. I'd buy again.

I purchased the 12-18 lb range - I love the weighted feel of the vest. It’s very comfortable. Easy to adjust. It also helps with my posture too ! I’m currently wearing just the 12 lb vest itself for about an hour a few times a week then gradually increased the time. You be the judge on what works best for you.

Received this as a gift. I’m overall impressed with it. The reflectors on it are very prominent for walking/running in the dark. It’s comfortable and fits well. The adjustable strap gives a lit of wiggle room. The phone pocket does seem a little small if you have a large phone. I have an iPhone Pro Max and it fits, but the pocket can’t close. I’ve only used it at its full weight and haven’t adjusted down yet
