    When I hit the button, I was aiming for picture but managed to hit video. But yes, it is Pro Iron. My apologies. I like the vest itself. It wears comfortably. If the weights were removable/returnable

I'm a huge fan of the weight vest.

This is one of those things in life where a few extra dollars can mean a lot.

Two, I went sort of big with the plan of starting light and working the weight up as I progressed.

I poked the pooch on both.

I saved a few dollars on a 40lb. vest. I pulled the first weight bag out and tried to put it back in. It is like they wrapped it in place, did the sewing and the material then shrank over the weight. It took 20 minutes of stretching and prying with a screwdriver to get the one weight back in its pouch. I should have not went cheap.

Since I went cheap and could not remove the weights I started off really high at 40lbs. It is quite the load to walk 3.5 miles in a 40lb vest.

(Then I was dumb enough to drop on the side of the road for my normal pushups. Not so normal and quite the challenge. LOL)

    If the weights were removable/returnable easier I would recommend it over any others I tried.

    It sort of takes the versatility out and makes this one a 40lb vest.

    • "World Carnivore Month" January Challenge!

      Today is the first day of January and is also the first day of World Carnivore Month. To that end, let's challenge ourselves to eat a carnivore diet for the entire month of January. The type of carnivore diet and the level of strictness you choose to do is entirely up to you. Examples of carnivore diets include the following... 1) The Lion Diet. A person eating the Lion Diet only consumes the flesh of ruminant animals, water, and salt. 2) The BBBE Diet. BBBE is an acronym for Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs.  3) The Carnivore Diet. This allows for the consumption of any and all animals and animal by-products, including dairy.  In any of the above examples, the object of course is to not consume any plants as part of your diet. Of course, we're not going to micromanage hoe you prepare your food, so your use of seasonings is entirely your own personal choice. IF your circumstances don't allow you to go full on carnivore in January, then you can participate in this topic by challenge yourself to do better, above and beyond what you have been doing. For example, if you have still been eating grains, seed oils, refined sugar, or drinking alcohol, challenge yourself to avoid these items and just eat a clean, single ingredient whole foods diet such as clean keto, ketovore, or animal based.  We encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk.  Participants in this topic will be entered into a drawing for a prize at the end of the month.
