Weighted vests, such as military-issued flack jackets, are a great solution for running up the numbers when it comes to calories burned. Increasing the amount of weight you carry as you perform cardiovascular exercise is directly related to increasing fat burning, muscle toning and sweat! The "X Vest" pictured above is one such example, readily available to all of us civilians who don't actually want to be seen in camo bullet-proof vests (LOL) but woud like to crank up the intensity. The X Vest itself weighs only a few pounds, but comes equipped with small weights so that you can add anywhere from 5-60 lbs for your run.
