Weighted Vest for Mesocycle 3?

[Amwalker93]

Hey everyone,

I want to buy a weighted vest for Cathe's squat workout routine. I am thinking to buy a 40 pound one so I dont need to lift a lot of heavy weights over my head Any idea what one to buy? What does Cathe use in her squat rack routine?

Thanks for your help.

I think Cathe and crew are using 10# vests? My over the head limit seems to be about 45 to 50 pounds. I used a 20# vest and it worked out pretty well; I also fastened my ten pound ankle weights around my waist for an additional 20#. I can see where a 40# vest would be good, but I don't think I could wrestle myself into the thing ! I bought my vest through Cathe's site (not available anymore), but I think Power Systems has a few options?
