Heavy Weight Weighted Vest 1–30 kg

Product detailed description

Universal adjustable Heavy Weight weighted vest 1–30 kg.

Description:

Our weighted vest/vest with weights/training vest distributes the load evenly and is handmade in the Czech Republic from quality European materials to achieve maximum durability. Thanks to our specific manufacturing method, the vest is as compact as possible, so it stays firmly on your body even when running or doing any other conditioning training.

A snug fit that adapts perfectly to your body is ensured by two Velcro straps running around the entire torso, and on these heavier variants also by two buckled straps on each side. The size of the vest is universal and suits all body types. The weighted vest is designed to boost the effectiveness of any sport, workout or physical activity.

Over the years, the Heavy Weight weighted vest/vest with weights/training vest has undergone many changes and innovations, developed with input from professional athletes across all sporting disciplines. We continue to innovate and constantly improve and refine our products.

Weights:

The weight of the vest is fully adjustable from 1 kilogram up to the maximum of the chosen weight variant. Even these heavier variants are suitable for conditioning training and running, but bear in mind that the heavier the vest, the more you feel it on your body. The pack contains thirty one-kilogram weights. 

As the filling, we use a special loose metal product packed into pouches of technical fabric to achieve better flexibility and softness. Unlike the competition, we do not use sand or loose waste, which is too light and bulky. Nor do we use metal plates or bricks, which are too dangerous and can cause injury. Our filling ensures safety during training and a high level of mobility that you simply cannot achieve with other types of filling.

Option to add more weight?

NEW! With the heavier variants, you can now buy an expandable weighted vest with capacity for loading up to 30 or 40 kg. However, this is recommended for athletes and non-athletes alike who know that in time they will want to train with such a high weight. If you have neither the ambition nor the predisposition for it, choose the classic fixed variant, where the weight cannot be topped up. The point is that the expandable variant is larger, and if you never used its potential to the full, your training would not be as comfortable as you would like. For conditioning training involving lots of movement, it is recommended to stick with the smaller variants without the top-up option. 

To buy the expandable vest, add "I want to top up to 40 kg later" in the order note.

Another great benefit is the versatility of the weights, which can also be used in our Czech kettlebags filled with the very same weights from the weighted vests for your all-round training.

We offer three variants of these kettlebags:

• adjustable kettlebag/powerbag/sandbag Heavy Weight 1–20 kg
• adjustable kettlebag/powerbag/sandbag Heavy Weight 1–30 kg
• adjustable kettlebag/powerbag/sandbag Heavy Weight 1–40 kg

Use for:

Unlimited use of the vest in any type of training: hockey (on and off the ice), football, floorball, basketball, American football, rugby, combat sports, athletics, bodyweight training, street workout, calisthenics, TRX, and both strength and conditioning training. The vest can be used both on your body and in your hand as a dumbbell or weight. 

Would you like to run with a Heavy Weight weighted vest? First read our article on running with a weighted vest. It is important to follow certain rules when using a weighted vest for running, so that your training is effective and doesn't cause injury.

Another huge advantage is the option of buying an empty vest once you already own one. This means that when your vest wears out or you simply get tired of the old design, you can buy a vest without weights (i.e. empty) and reuse the weights from your old vest. This makes your next purchase considerably cheaper. There are various weighted vest designs, or you can have a vest made to order with your own custom design.

• weighted vest 0.5–10 kg  without weights
• weighted vest 1–20 kg without weights
• weighted vest 0.5–10 kg with custom design without weights

What effect does a weighted vest have? You'll find the answer as to whether it is effective to use a weighted vest, weighted shorts or other weights in this article.

 Ideally, you should have both a weighted vest and a weighted dip belt and combine your weighted-vest training with our suspension trainer or with gymnastic rings in two variants: gymnastic rings with a narrower grip or gymnastic rings with a wider grip. Also combine your training with resistance bands or a resistance rope with a vest or a resistance rope with a belt. 

 Just like the resistance rope, the Czech Heavy Weight running parachute provides horizontal resistance to complement the vertical load of the vest.

We offer weighted vests in several weight variants, and you can also have a weighted vest made with your own custom design:

1. weighted vest with custom design 0.5–10 kg 
2. weighted vest with custom design 1–20 kg

Benefits: 

• Handmade in the Czech Republic from European materials
• Tested by professional athletes
• Adjustable weight keeps you motivated to improve
• Double system of adjustment and fastening to the body
• Usable in any type of training
• Universal size for all body types
• The safest and most suitable type of vest weighting

A great advantage of the Heavy Weight weighted vest is the option of buying an empty vest after a few years, once your original one wears out — so you can have it fresh and looking great again for years to come. You'll find the weighted vest without weights here. 

NEW in are Heavy Weight weighted shorts.

You can supplement weighted-vest training with resistance in the form of resistance bands:

• Heavy Weight resistance band, resistance up to approx. 7 kg
• Heavy Weight resistance band, resistance up to approx. 13 kg
• Heavy Weight resistance band, resistance up to approx. 22 kg
• Heavy Weight resistance band, resistance up to approx. 29 kg
• Heavy Weight resistance band, resistance up to approx. 45 kg
• Heavy Weight resistance bands, complete set 7 to 45 kg

Professional and amateur athletes and non-athletes alike supplement their vest training with the Czech Heavy Weight resistance rope with a belt.

As a hockey player, or simply someone who likes a bit of fun in their training, you can glide along with your vest on the slide board — otherwise known as a skating trainer.

After consulting the coaches of UFC fighters, MMA wrestlers and boxers, we also recognised the importance of another product that protects the joints, shoulders and elbows: Heavy Weight MMA and boxing resistance bands.

Dynamic exercise is a truly specific form of training these days, and there are some very interesting and effective tools such as medicine balls in various weight variants for jumps, stability exercises, striking practice and many other types of training. Close behind them are the widely used Bulgarian bags and battle ropes, ideal for strengthening your shoulders, forearms, grip and wrists — in fact your whole body.

Do you train in comfort? If not, you should — put the soft Heavy Weight exercise mat under you for sit-ups and other exercises.

When training with a weighted vest/vest with weights/training vest, you shouldn't forget about recovery. Muscle recovery is part of every workout, and the Heavy Weight foam roller will help you with that.

A higher level of rehabilitation and muscle release is provided by the TOP GUN Heavy Weight massage gun, which comfortably and conveniently relaxes your entire body.
