Why use a weighted vest for cross-training and weight training?
By adding extra weights to your (now easy) bodyweight exercises, you increase the difficulty and promote muscle development. With this weighted vest, you'll gain in strength, explosiveness and muscular endurance.
It's an essential accessory for improving your workouts!
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 previous version which had a maximum limit of 10 kg.
Our design team has redesigned the shoulder straps for extra comfort during weighted exercises. The system has also been redesigned to adapt to all morphologies.
Finally, a Velcro zone has been added to personalize your weighted vest with patches from your box!
