RUNmax 20LBS - 150LBS Adjustable Weighted Vest Wtih Shoulder Pads Option for Men and Women

This adjustable weighted vest if very good. You can add or remove the weights to fit your comfort and strength level. You can put the sand bag weights in the front and back of the vest. This is a great method to improve your overall strength and conditioning. The vest came with 10 sand bags. I sweat a great deal when I use this vest. I usually just let it dry out outside. About once a week, I will run it through our washing machine (without the weights) on the delicate cycle to clean and deodorize. The vest is comfortable. I do use the shoulder pads to increase comfort. It fits great.

Really happy with this weighted vest. The build quality is solid, the price was right, and I love that it offers such a wide range — you can go as light as 20 lbs and scale all the way up to 150. It’s comfortable to wear considering the weight, though fair warning: once you load it up, it will feel heavy — that’s the point. Here’s my old-man advice if you’re new to weighted vests: don’t start at the top. Add weight gradually and let your body adapt — wear it for walks or around the house first before you jump into workouts. Your joints, back, and knees will thank you. Once you’re used to it, this vest becomes an incredible tool for training, hiking, or just turning everyday movement into exercise. Overall, it’s exactly what I wanted — sturdy, adjustable, and capable of growing with you as you get stronger.

When you pick this thing up and feel the full weight you think, "there's no way Im going to be able to put this on". Then you carefully slide in to it and realize that the perfect weight distribution makes this pretty darn bearable. In fact, your legs are more likely to get tired than your back is! I needed this to train for a fitness test coming up. I love the ease of adjusting the weight to what I want, and the 5 pockets on both sides give you options for where you put the weights. Its comfortable and the lower chest band gives great support. I didnt get the ones with the shoulder pads, and while I do think they would make it more comfortable, you can easily add your own make shift padding that will do the same thing. This is a great exercise tool to really help you build muscle and strength. Its very good quality and seems like it will be durable over time.

So just started actually getting into writing reviews on products I purchase on Amazon from my standpoint. I purchased the 20 lb shoulder “pad less” version of the vest. The vest arrived fairly quick compacted into a box about 1 foot long and 4 inches wide. I knew it was the vest once I went to pick it up from my mail room and unknowingly tried to take it off the shelf as if it was a usual weight box. The vest itself is nice and lives up to the prescribed weight will distributing the weight quite evenly. I am 6’1 (72in) 205 athletic/Olympian build. The vest comes down and stops around to my just above or right at the middle of my belly button. Not a problem, I usually wear an Ab compression belt anyway. No matter how tight I attempt to get the vest, it still shifts around when running but works amazingly great during workouts. It’s not a bad running vest though. You’ll really feel it in your legs and the vest is “compressionish” meaning it’ll hug your body and hopefully induce sweat from you. However, I can say that the vest will make your shoulders hurt like crazy if you are working the general area or performing activity that utilizes the general upper body area (even running). Not sure how some people would feel about that but I personally like it as it adds to my workout and works a little bit of muscle even while I’m resting. I use it just about everyday as I’ve seen progress in my speed with and without the vest, Upper body muscle structure, larger/toned calves, and broad shoulders. 4/5 would buy again * wouldn’t use as a primary run vest since there are better options out there for that purpose *vest can get pretty shifty depending on your body structure *vest may be a little shorter for taller individuals

I am very pleased with this weighted vest. It appears to be made well and my walks are very challenging with it loaded at 48lbs (I bought a 60lb vest, but removed some of the weights). It is as comfortable as can be expected. The main discomfort is felt in the shoulders, though I did buy it with the shoulder pads. This vest is less expensive and more comfortable than the vest I had from one of the big fitness companies. I definitely recommend this vest. Get more results from your walks!

Amazing vest, amazing fit, and the weights are perfect!

Great! Durable material, easy to put on but definitely need to go down a bit more with weight if you arent used to the weight. Abit hard to carry around if your arms are strong. Smell was a bit strong out of the package but just have to air it out. I’d say the build was made for men but works regardless

This weighted adjustable vest is more than enough to train with. I am short about 159 cm and my weight is 75 KG. Adding this weighted vest to your workout is a lot. If you do a yoga or body weight workouts this will be heavy and it will exhaust you making the workout a lot harder. I do my daily routine workout without the vest. But when I do one hand push up and push ups the workout will become very hard. But I didn't use the vest with the door pull ups .I think the door pull up won't handle the total weight of 85 KG. Sometimes the workout can't be done with the vest. I feel I need some kind of training to be able to pull myself or to do the workout. It is good for walking and running I tried it with my indoor treadmill. And it will add extra load to your body and your legs. But I recommend jogging, walking or running outside your home. The shoulder pads will add some comfort to your shoulders. I recommend buying the vest with shoulder pads. The vest is a bit bulky. When you do push ups or one hand push up the vest will hit the floor. But you can continue using it with that size. When you finish the workout you will feel a pump. And it enhances the shape of your belly and body at the short run. I have been using it for 2 weeks but there is no leakage from it. And I give my salutations to amazon customer support for helping me delivering it. UPDATE!!! Guys be careful of this vest. You will get excited and you will use it a lot. I used this vest with one hand push ups, dead lift, olympic lifts and I did some extra exercises. I went in a state which is called "overload" of the shoulders. You will feel pain inside your joints and muscles which will last with you for quit a long time more than 3 weeks. To avoid it DO NOT use the vest with that kind of exercises which will result in some kind of pain or you can adjust the weight to half the volume. I know it is useful but you will end in an injury or overload state of your shoulders. It is better to do muscles stretching and mobility recovery and rehab. In case if you went into that state, stop exercising the upper parts of your body. And do not wear the vest and keep using the lower part of your body. At the time of writing this update I am doing stretches and rehabbing to my right shoulder that is because I was wearing the vest and doing 4 exercises. Dead lift, Olympic lift with bad technic, and one hand pushup. All while wearing the vest. One more thing. Go to Alo wellness club website and search for the recovery you want to start again without the vest for at least 2 or 4 weeks then use it gradually to get back into your routine.

I recommend this weighted vest. It is excellent for the price. I wish it had a pocket for my phone.

This vest does what it’s supposed to and does it well. The weight is adjustable in clean increments, the fit is secure, and the shoulder pads make a real difference for longer sessions. Most vests skip that comfort layer or sell it separately—this one includes it, and it’s hard to find again once stock dries up. The nylon shell wipes clean easily, and the sandbag weights stay put without shifting. It’s bulky at full load, but the balance is solid and the straps hold firm. No bouncing, no awkward shifting, and no stitching failures so far. If you’re serious about adding resistance to walks, stairs, or bodyweight work, this is a reliable pick. Just don’t wait on the shoulder pad version—it’s not something you’ll easily source later.

Excelente calidad, muy cómodo de usar..
