LOVE MY WEIGHTED VEST!!!

Last night I used my new weighted vest for GS Legs and it was everything I hoped it would be! I took out all the little bean bags so it only weighed 12 pounds and I had 32.5 pounds on my barbell (instead of the 43 I was lifting before). It was MUCH easier to go from set to set without tiring myself out from upper body fatigue trying to lift that heavy barbell AND I was able to use a slightly heavier weight!!! I LOVED IT!!!:eek:
I plan on incorporating the vest into some push-up training and walking with it as well! What a great in-VEST-ment!!!!;)
 
Nancy- Don't forget to modify your weight on your hrm when you go to hike or run, because you get the added calorie burn of the added weight, and be sure to re-adjust it back down when you are finished.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that! Thanks for the reminder!;)
 
I didn't even think about using it when I go for a run. I might do that in the fall when it cools off on my short run days. I'm blaming you though if I can't move the next day. ;)
 
I love mine, too. I wouldn't have been able to lift the really heavy weight up over my shoulders for squats in STS without it. Sometimes I put it on for leg presses (step-ups), without holding any weight, just to change things up a bit.
 
I think this will be one of my first purchases after my shoulder/arm break heals and I am released to do something again!
 
Yesterday DD and I went to Marshalls in Leesburg,Va and bought Cathe's 10 LB vest for $19.99. I can't wait to try it out:eek:

I also found Cathe's resistance toning tube (light, med and heavy) for $6.99 in Tuesday Morning (?)and her 55 cm cherry red burst-restistnat ball for $9.99. They also had her yoga mats, jump rope and hand weights.

I just came back from Mississippi and also found the vest at a Marshalls for $20 in Alabama, so I will try it out for one of the weight lifting videos. I'm glad I was able to find some of her products there :)

I will try mine out today. I can't believe all the wo products you can find in those discount stores. Glad you found Cathe's vest too:) too bad they didn't had the turbo tower....wishfull thinking, LOL!:eek::eek: now that would be the jackpot:p
 
You guys talked me into checking out Tuesday Mornings and Marshall's and sure enough they had Cathe gear there. I got a weighted vest, resistance tubing, bands, a stability ball and a new mat. I'm so excited. It's Christmas in July!! Thanks for the hot tip!
