Troubleshooting

Vest feels uncomfortable or shifts during exercise

Readjust the shoulder and side straps for a tighter, more secure fit. Ensure weights are evenly distributed within the pockets.

Straps feel tight or cause chafing

Slightly loosen the straps in the affected areas. Consider wearing a moisture-wicking shirt underneath the vest for added comfort.

Weight pockets do not distribute weight evenly

Ensure that the same amount of weight is placed in each corresponding pocket on the front and back of the vest.

Difficulty breathing due to weight restriction

Reduce the amount of weight in the vest or ensure the straps are not over-tightened, restricting chest expansion. Consult a fitness professional if issues persist.
