weighted vest

Loaded training top

A weighted vest is a garment worn on the torso that contains pockets filled with small weights, used to add resistance during exercise or physical training.

The added load intensifies bodyweight movements like pull-ups, walking, or running: I do my morning walks in a weighted vest.

Weighted vests are also used therapeutically, particularly for children with sensory processing issues, where the pressure provides a calming effect.
