WEIGHTED VEST WORKOUT
WORTH ITS WEIGHT
This full-body workout combines simple bodyweight moves, made lungbustingly difficult with the addition of a weighted vest
Locksmith is one quarter of Brit-winning band Rudimental, but away from the music he’s also a fitness fanatic, and recently launched his own activewear range: They Call Me Locksmith. Among the brand’s apparel is a selection of training equipment, including the Tactical Weighted Vest used here.
Weighted vests offer the simplest solution for levelling up your bodyweight workouts. While adding dumbbells or other external weights changes the basic mechanics of bodyweight exercises, with a weighted vest you can press-up, pull-up, squat and more just as you would without weights. The extra load will place added stress on your muscles and cardiovascular system, which means your strength, endurance and body fat will all benefit.
