A training vest is a piece of workout equipment that can develop cardio, strength, and endurance. It makes any activity more challenging, so you’ll exert more effort and bring benefits to your body and mind. A training vest helps burn fat, correct posture, build muscles, get you stronger and faster, strengthen bones, and many other benefits.
Here are some of the styles we are going to look at:
GORUCK Training Weight Vest – Overview
The Rucker has very comfortable shoulder straps. These straps are sized and contoured to make the world’s best Training Weight Vest. Other weighted vests have minimal to no padding, or instead of using padding, they use nylon straps.
The problem with nylon straps is they dig into your shoulders which is very uncomfortable. The training vest from GORUCK is made comfortable to the skin and you can wear it shirtless. It is also compatible with Ruck Plates up to 2x 30 LBS and other training plates while keeping the weight stable even while running.
This vest is made from 500D CORDURA®, weighing 1.65 lbs. The interior material is made from 210D CORDURA®, and the back flap material is made from 330D CORDURA®. The Velcro plate closure that holds the plate in place is made from 1050 Ballistic Nylon. The vest has two waist belt straps measuring 19.5″ each.
