5.11 Tactical is known by their mantra of Always Be Ready and this new line of gear is definitely prepared to get you there. Non-traditional, weight-bearing exercises are some of the most real-world, practical applications of fitness imaginable. While barbells and dumbbells absolutely have their place in improving one’s fitness, more often than not we pick up, move, and carry things that are odd, difficult shapes. That is why training with a weighted vest or a heavy, shifting sandbag can be so beneficial. A complete rundown of 5.11’s NEW Physical Training-Ready (PT-R) line of gear can be read below:

IRVINE, Calif. (May 20, 2021) – 5.11, Inc., the global innovator of purpose-built apparel, footwear, and gear today announced the launch of its new Physical Training-Ready (PT-R) product line, created to offer versatile solutions for fitness training. The new PT-R lineup includes weight kits and technical apparel that are all designed to give users the freedom to train anywhere and anytime, even when a gym is not available.
“Now, more than ever, people want the freedom to train when and where it works best for them, and they need dependable gear that will allow them to achieve that,” said Matt Page, Vice President of Global Product for 5.11. “We worked with some of our most demanding end users to develop our PT-R line to meet the evolving needs of fitness and training enthusiasts.”
