Weight Vests

Weight vest for effective training

Training with the weight vest is nothing new. Some time ago you trained with additional weights and weight vest. Since the weight vests at that time were not particularly chic and the training with the heavy vests was cumbersome and uncomfortable, the training trend did not last long. Through functional training and cross training, the weight vest is currently experiencing a real renaissance. Today's models are functional and modern. They are anatomically shaped and fit snugly against the body.

For an optimal weight vest training not only the shape and the fit have to fit, the training weight is also crucial. The new models mostly have variable weights. With the help of small weight bags, the trainee can weigh down the training vest or reduce the weight of the vest.

In addition to pure weight training with a weight vest, does cardio training with a weight vest make sense?

Definitely! Weight vest training is a simple and absolutely effective way of increasing the intensity of training for both professional athletes and ambitious recreational athletes. When endurance training with a weight vest you should still take care not to load too much weight and observe the posture and step technique during the run to prevent injuries.
