Why wear a weighted vest?

Why wear a weighted vest?

Camil Morin 

At Murph, one of our best sellers is our famous tactical weighted vest, available in 10 colors. 

Essential for improving your fitness, performance, and muscle building, our vest is synonymous with high quality and durability. It helps build muscle, boost power, endurance, and even speed and explosiveness. It also allows you to train by artificially increasing your body weight. This supplement makes your cardiovascular system and all your muscles work more intensely. 

Design 

Made from ultra-durable, water-resistant 600D nylon, the MURPH vest is specifically designed to offer greater freedom of movement, a lightweight feel, and optimal breathability. Padded shoulder pads reduce friction, adjustable tension straps improve stability, and innovative airflow channels and mesh ensure sustained comfort.

Designed very similarly to the one used at the Games. Add your own patches to customize it to your image. You can currently choose from 10 colors. The MURPH rubber or leather patch beautifully complements the design.

The vest is built to withstand heavy abuse and is engineered to stay in place, even during movements like running or any other exercise where you want to add weight variables that you cannot easily achieve with dumbbells, kettlebells, or other types of weights.

Weight 

It is recommended to choose a vest corresponding to 10% of your body weight. Ours weighs 3.5 lbs, so you will need two 8.25 lb plates to make it 20 lbs or two 5.25 lb plates for 14 lbs. We have already done the math for you.

Recommended Workouts

Several exercises can be performed with the vest. Although your imagination is your only limit, we love wearing our vests for push-ups, pull-ups, squats, burpees, running, and above all, for all exercises involving kettlebells, dumbbells, barbells, sandbags, and more!
