ZFOsports® - 40LBS ADJUSTABLE WEIGHTED VEST

Loved this product the second I had it out of the container. I use it solely for walking at this point, but look forward to incorporating it into my strength and interval workouts as well. Comfortable fit, durable, adjustable weights (which are included!)and a sweet take-no-crap kevlar look. Three small shortcomings to be aware of: I practice bagua circle walking and it''s a little difficult to raise my arms directly in front of my body while wearing the vest(overhead pressing is definitely possible, but also a bit unnatural; I''ve been walking around with half the load (20 lbs) and wearing it high looked sort of ridiculous under a jacket, even boxlike. I alleviated this by loading the weights into the lower containers, thereby giving a more natural appearance. Still, when I''ve worked up to 40 lbs., the same problem will arise. But hey, I''m seeking excellent conditioning here, not a reproductive partner; there''s pretty much no way you could wear this openly in public without giving off the strong odors of swat team/bank robber. Social stigmas aside, this vest satisfies all the needs I had for workouts and will continue to do so for years. It''s definitely sturdily made, and the removable loop and velcro waistband could feasibly accommodate many body sizes. What more could I ask for in a piece of exercise equipment?

works great i bought this to condition for my deployment to iraq since our vests are 40 lbs works great no chaffing around the arms during the run highly reccomended

this weighted vest is no joke. as another reviewer pointed out, there is absolutely no way you can go out in public wearing this item without sparking comments about SWAT team/kevlar vests. for me personally, couple the bada** look of the ZFO vest with the fact that A) i''m a woman and B) i wear it while running, and the hardcase look is complete! this is my second vest the first topped out at 20lbs, and i use this one currently at 32lbs. it has many improvements over my first vest (different brand, completely different style).

figuring out exactly how to put this thing together when it first arrives is a little confusing. it comes in pieces. there are no directions in the box, and the website leaves one with more questions than answers. just youtube it: there are a couple of easy-to-follow vids out in the interwebz made by users. once you put it together and fit it properly, this monster hugs you tight (double abdomen straps? sweet!) and forces you to have excellent posture (bonus!). having the flexibility to make minute adjustments to the straps is fantastic.

like other weight vests, folks, this one will give you fatigue in your shoulders. please stop complaining about it and accept it as part of the training -it simply goes with the territory, kids.

for running, this vest allows for free and easy arm movement.

my only real complaint is the chafing. to be absolutely fair, as i already mentioned i am a woman (seems like this bad boy is used mostly by fellas). i am physically fit, but i have an ample bosom. to date i have not figured out a way to adjust both straps properly so that either one or the other is not chafing me somewhere across my front. since this does not seem to be a complaint by other users, i am going to chalk it up to my own physical attributes and will continue to try and figure out a good balance.

Got my vest on time on 2/28/2011, started with 10lbs and have worked up to 20lbs in just 2 weeks. I ran my usual 4 to 5 miles without the vest just today, and I killed it! My running has improved so much, I run much faster and I am lighter on my feet. This is awesome to do push ups in and abs. I think this is an amazing product and pretty much been suggesting it to all my rugby teammates. I totally recommend this product if you want to get a harder workout and/or lose weight.

I have had my vest for 1 week and used it for plyometrics, core, and gate training. This product more than met my expectations. The weights are 2.5 pounds each and easily changed out to adjust weight. The vest is easily adjustible and fits me well. I am a medium build 6'' 190lb male and the vest could go smaller but the velcro will start to over lap and the sholder adjustments will have lots of excess. Bottom line, 1 week and I am already seeing results. Any comparable vest costs significaantly more.
