Full-Body Weight Vest Circuit

 

Full-Body Weight Vest Circuit

Looking to add intensity to your workout?  Try the Perfect Weight Vest full-body circuit.  This workout incorporates movements for your core, upper body, lower body and even some plyometrics for an even harder workout. Circuits are intense, and for good reason. They make your heart rate go higher faster to support all the different muscles that are in use. This helps to burn more calories during and after the workout. Plus it helps get results faster because the intensity is higher.

Follow the circuit below for an intense full body workout. Before you start, make sure to review the workout movement descriptions and guidelines on, our online Weight Vest Workout Guide.
