Train safely. Progress gradually.
Weighted vests work best when you start light, secure the fit and build up slowly.
Start light
Begin with short sessions and use a sensible starting load before increasing intensity.
Secure the fit
Keep the vest snug, balanced and close to your body so it does not bounce during training.
Stay low-impact first
Walking, stairs and controlled bodyweight work are the best starting points for most users.
Listen to your body
Remove the vest if you feel sharp pain, dizziness, chest pain or unusual breathlessness.

It adds resistance to push-ups, squats, lunges, pull-ups and conditioning circuits.
Best with gradual progression
Benefits depend on proper fit, controlled load, low-impact progression and good technique.
