Abstract

An exercise vest is provided which comprises a body having a front, a back and two sides, all connected at the sides and the front to define an internal cavity. The vest is adjustable such that the diameter of the internal cavity may expand or retract to conform the vest to various users. A plurality of pockets are attached to the body and weights are receivable in the pockets. A pair of vertically spaced, co-linear pockets are formed on each of the first and second sections of the front of the body. A pair of horizontally spaced pockets are formed on the back of the body. The pockets are of substantially the same size and receive identical weights to provide a 2:1 front to back weight distribution on the vest. The weights are preferably formed of loose lead shot mounted in containers insertable into each of the pockets. The pockets are releasably closable and flaps are associated with at least one of the pockets.
