The

comes fully equipped with removable weights you can take out to alter the resistance of the vest. It is a one size fit all product, eradicating the problem of size variation.

It has a short-body design and does not ride on stomach which may cause discomfort and irritation. Also, the maxivest is open sided providing a cooling effect and non-chafing with webbing pockets for maximum durability, it will not stretch or sag!!!

The MAXIVEST can help you lose WEIGHT safely and efficiently. The MAXIVEST ENHANCES your current fitness program by concurrently strengthening core muscles, improving spinal bone density, and maximizing your workout with the added weight. Other documented benefits include strengthening core muscles and improving spinal bone density. Lack of physical activity, especially amongst women has caused a huge rise in the number of individuals suffering from osteoporosis which is a vast problem in the US and UK. In numerous research studies, where a weight vest was used, significant data has been produced to indicate that the weight vest improved spinal bone density. The weight that is added to the body is supported by the skeletal system and muscular structure and is distributed over a large area of the body and is also safe for a person’s joints This is great news for all those people in the US and UK suffering from osteoporosis. The maxivest is the answer!!

When Can I Use The MAXIVEST

• Walking

• Running / Jogging

• Daily Activities

• Aerobics

• Weight / Apparatus Training

• Yoga

• Enhance Your Current Exercise Routine

How the MAXIVest Weight Vest Works:

An individual’s body is acclimatised to one’s weight and it burns calories based on weight, exercise duration and intensity. When weight is added to the body, more strain is applied to the muscles and more energy is required to support the functioning of moving the added load; ultimately this leads to more calories being burned to support muscle action making any workout more effective. A weighted vest will intensify any activity or exercise, thus increasing the metabolic rate.

The

Weighted Vest
allows you to add weight to your core in one-pound increments, slowly increasing the intensity as the body acclimatises to this form of resistance training. By adding weight to your body you are increasing gravity making it more difficult to move. By making even basic movements or motions more difficult your body requires more muscle fibres to be called into action thus requiring more calories to be burned to support the muscle actions.
