Strengthening Weighted Vests

The YVO Warrior Vest Was Made for Women in Midlife

Weighted vests enhance workouts by amping up resistance, elevating cardio effort and promoting greater calorie burn, and the YVO Warrior Vest was specifically designed for women in midlife, helping to enhance bone health, build strength, and boost confidence.

This weighted vest, engineered for women's comfort, features adjustable straps, a modular weight system, mesh storage pockets and even spaces to display achievement charms—the first charm arrives after 50 miles rucked with the Warrior Vest.

In recent years, rucking (walking or hiking with added weight) has taken off as a way to build functional strength, combat age-related bone loss, and boost mood and cognitive function. The YVO Warrior Vest, now available for pre-order, comes with a free DEXA Scan by BodySpec, membership in the YVO Ruck Tribe community, and access to the YVO app.
