Aduro Sport Adjustable Weighted Vest Workout Equipment 4-10lbs 11-20lbs 20-32lbs 26-46lbs Body Weight Vest for Men Women Kids

Very well made. At 74 years old I'm using this vest in the morning to keep fit for SCUBA diving. The basic 26 lb sewn in weight on this one is a bit too heavy to begin with for me. I'm walking about 1.5 miles up and down hills with the dogs. I should have started with a lighter basic weight. This set has two additional weights that can be added to pouches in the vest totaling 52 lbs. Note: my SCUBA gear weighs 55 lbs. Read more

I tried a couple of weighted vests before settling on this one and I'm really happy with my purchase. The model I got weighs 11 to 20 pounds. You can use the vest at 11 pounds (there's no way to make it weigh less) or add the six included 1-1/2 pound weight bags reach a total of 20 pounds; adding one weight bag would make the vest weigh 12-1/2 lbs, adding two would make it weigh 14 lbs, etc. I haven't tried it yet with more that 11 pounds in it but it would be really easy as the vest has 6 velcro pockets the weight bags fit snugly into. The cross-chest (and cross-back) design means it fits well and doesn't flop around, even during jumping jacks, burpees, etc. I wear it over a t-shirt and under gi jacket and haven't had any issues with chafing. The vest is quite easy to put on and take off. The back of the vest is kind of bulky making full sit ups difficult because you can't lay all the way down flat when wearing the vest. It works fine for crunches and v-ups, etc. Read more

Nice vest, comfortable to wear and easy to take on and off. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is one of the weight bags was ripped upon arrival and a lot of the weight pellets had spilled out of that one. Makes me wonder if the other weight bags will be durable. Read more

Everything I’d hoped for: easy to put on, adjust and wear. 10 pounds is a great place to start for me; and it kicks my other workouts (e.g.,brisk, uphill walk, calf raises, etc) up a notch. I sometimes wear it, working around the house, going up and down stairs, in the supermarket, etc. AND it helps me improve my posture. So glad I ordered it! Read more

The weight is nicely distributed for runners. I can do full speed work outs with no problems plus other workouts as well. It also forces you (at least in my case) to stand straighter and run quieter so the vest doesn't bounce to much, this keeps my feet closer to the ground and gives me better technique as a distance runner. I bought the vest to train to run faster and stronger over long distances from 10K to Marathon and I ran my fastest 10K ever just today so I can say that for my training regimen this is really working. The weight takes some getting used to at first but once your body settles into it you can turn simple average workouts into the kind that really improve you, this type of training is as old and time honored as training itself, if something stands the test of time it's because it works, running with extra weight is a tough way to train but IT WORKS!! I highly recommend this vest to anyone truly interested in being the best runner they can be and don't mind putting in the hard yards to got there. It's worth every penny to the truly dedicated.

wear it with almost every walk, adjustable and not expensive compared to others Read more

I purchased the 11-20lb vest about 3 years ago, and it's been one of my most-used fitness tools. The only negative for me is that I have to re-adjust the straps during some workouts, because the vest gets loose when doing squats & lunges. (It's not bad enough to knock the rating though.) I've MORE than gotten my money worth and I'll buy a new one when I'm ready to exceed 20lbs. Read more

Good and heavy, though I don't find it very comfortable at the shoulder straps. The waist cinch is also pretty flimsy, with cheap-feeling plastic clips and excessive amounts of strap. Clearly this was intended to fit very rotund individuals. Which is great, but for someone my size I'll have to trim the straps. It also doesn't smell great, but that's pretty normal in my experience with neoprene products. If the price were lower, I'd probably say it's more like 4 stars. For the current price, I was expecting it to fit more snugly or to at least be more comfortable at the weight-bearing points. Edit: Upped to 4 stars as customer support reached out to try and fix the issues I had. Read more
