Step up your vest training with this pair of curved 8.75 lb steel plates, which together add 17.8 lbs of resistance once loaded front and back. The 3D curved shape follows the natural line of your chest and back, keeping the extra weight snug and stable instead of bouncing around while you run, hike, or work through pull-ups and push-ups. Solid steel construction with smoothed, rounded edges is built to withstand repeated heavy sessions while protecting the inside of your vest from wear, and each plate ships in triple-layer bubble wrap for safe delivery. The vest itself is not included, this listing covers the plates only, and they are not designed for use as body armor. If 8.75 lb pairs turn out to be more or less than you need, the same curved plate is also available in 5.75 lb and 14.5 lb pairs, so you can dial in the right load as your endurance and strength training progresses.
