Weighted Workout Vest Interval Training

Weighted Workout Vest

A few months back, we posted a blog featuring 25 Reason You Should Get A SandBell and we figured we would do the same for our new Hyper Vest PRO. But instead of spilling all the reasons right up front, we are going to give you a few reasons each week. As a bonus for being patient, we will also include a workout every week to give you an idea of how to integrate the PRO weight vest workout into your routine!

HIIT. CrossFit. Tabata. Whatever your preference, utilizing a high intensity workout with dynamic design and comfort of the Hyper Vest pack a 1-2 punch.
Here are five reasons to use these new weighted vests for Interval Training:

1. Fits like a glove
2. Doesn’t interfere with movements and exercises
3. Adds resistance that both hardcore and casual athletes can enjoy
4. Safe weight for new athletes to train in (5 lbs.)
5. The weight distributes evenly across the body so shifting does not occur during quick burst movements
