WHY WEIGHT VESTS?

In athletic training, tools that can challenge the body and take it beyond its limits are invaluable. Enter the NC Fitness Weight Vests. Trusted and used by many athletes, this humble piece of equipment has rapidly become a cornerstone for those aiming to up the ante in their workouts. Expertly designed to fit and distribute weight evenly and snugly, it’s no surprise that our vest has garnered a reputation for both its comfort and efficiency. If you’re looking for a product to do exactly that, you can pick from any of our options on the site; however, the TACTICAL WEIGHT VEST – PLATE CARRIER is an absolute perfect example of a good quality vest, as it contains: a Lightweight breathable 500D nylon material vest (1kg empty), Padded shoulder straps, and is One size fits all with elastic straps for a fit as tight as you like it. This is all to ensure user comfort, and it even includes (as a bonus): Resistance and Plates sold in pairs that come in 2.5KG (5KG total) and 4KG (8KG in total) which are sold separately.

What are the benefits of using a weighted vest?

The purpose of our vest goes well beyond just adding weight. It simulates a heavier body mass, pushing your muscles to work harder and thereby increasing strength, endurance, and overall performance. This added resistance forces your body to adapt, helping you achieve those fitness milestones faster. Whether you’re performing squats, pull-ups, or even running, incorporating our weight vest into your routine can truly revolutionise your training, giving you the edge you need to outperform and outlast.

A weighted vest is a powerful tool that can significantly boost the intensity and efficacy of your workouts. Whether you’re running, lifting, or performing bodyweight exercises, our vests can help:

  • Increase strength and endurance
  • Improve cardiovascular health
  • Enhance bone density
  • Boost weight loss efforts
  • Improve balance and stability 

How to wear a weight vest

Weight vests are worn over the torso that have various levels of resistance, and can be weighted with plates to suit your fitness level and needs.

There are many benefits of wearing weight vests in strength training and cardio activities. You can increase your strength and endurance and bring variation to your gym workout. There is also added bonus of cardiovascular health and bone strength.

Much like resistance bands, weight vests can hold the power to take your favourite bodyweight exercises to new levels. Just by wearing one, you’ll be adding an additional weight load to your workout which puts more stress on your overall body and forces your muscle groups to work harder with the added weight to move around.

What Exercises can be done with Weight Vests?

Weight Vests can be used for specific bodyweight training such as plyometric work or sprinting. You can also challenge yourself and up the resistance on a variety of standard bodyweight exercises. Boost your abilities with squats, lunges, pull-ups and push-ups.

Bought a sled, turf and belt squat from NC Fitness. Service was great and build quality is good. The belt squat and sled were easy to assemble and the staff helped with loading it all into my vehicle. I will be buying more products from here in the future for sure 👍

Bought some rubber mats and plates, prices were competitive and its nice to be able to rock up and just load into the back of your car.

Friendly staff.

These are good quality bumper plates for the price and cope well for CrossFit style WODs where weights are constantly dropped.
NC Fitness also have excellent customer service nothing is too hard for them.

Best investment in a long time I have a lot of knots in my shoulders and I suffer from sciatic pain as well this has helped me so much. My friends have used mine and have ended up purchasing the ball as well. Best investment in a long time.

I've made 3 different purchases from NC Fitness, collecting one order in person, while shipping the other two orders. The quality of their products is fantastic, while their pricing is competitive. I have plenty of rogue fitness equipment too and the NC stuff is equal in build strength, quality and finish - though more affordable. I've brought dumb bells, plyo box, H-Series rig components etc. Their freight rates and shipping times are fair, given the weight of the products shipping. Keep up the great work team!
