Will this keep you floating when water jogging? (I weigh 170 pounds)

This one was too small for my husband who weighted 180. They do work well for water jogging, though.

It will definitely keep the person afloat but not sure about putting it around the waist. I'd ensure I had an approved life jacket for that.

I'm sure it would prevent it from sinking. My camera is heavier than my phone and it holds it up. The camera is submerged but the float stays on the surface

Its great for running but use the side straps so it doesnt bounce. It can be hard to breathe when using all 50 lbs.

It stays pretty secure on my knee if fitted properly even when I am pouring with sweat. I suggest you carefully consider the size you get to make sure it is right. As far as swimming I would assume it would stay still.

As far as I know if your are submerged in the water, the inflated life vest should support you. I disconnected the automatic inflation feature and depend upon the manual lanyard to inflate it. I use this in my airplane, and in the event of a water landing, don't want it to inflate until we are clear of the cockpit.

Not sure if this product would work for you based on your discription on what you need. I would consult a specialist first. I just needed mine for support while jogging.

I am 5 ft 7" and for me aqua jogging in 3 ft would not work..Ideally with your height I would think 4" would be good. The idea is to move your arms back and forth and that gives you resistance in the water which is good. SO I feel unable to say that you could effectively water jog in water that shallow. Good luck

I weigh 200 lbs and I feel confident that it can hold me. But you really have to balance yourself properly on any of these products.

I weigh 280 and it holds me fine...its a heavier material than most pool floats.

Yes, it will keep you on the surface. Be sure to get the right size and it ought to be a snug fit, so pull the straps tight.

Yes it will hold and run with someone that weighs over 220 lbs. Thank You FingerHiking

I don't see how these pants can help you improve floating. That should be more about technique that you can consult with a swimming coach ;-) !!

Yes. It is great for floating on. It should hold two people just fine, unless you are really big. If it is blown up tight and you get on carefully, you probably won't even get wet.

I would never use a weight training vest such as this one for swimming. For one it is dangerous to have any excess weight on yourself when in a pool of water even with proper supervision. If you want to get the maximum benefit from this product, stick to using it for walking, jogging, hiking and running though adjust the weight accordingly. You don't want to exceed 15-20 lbs for running/jogging but start out slow with the weight for walking/hiking as you'll feel it in your quads, traps and hamstrings.

I don't know if there is a max weight. when you are in the water it sort of holds you weightless. I am 180 pretty heavy and I've never had a problem

I have used this on about 30 dives and never noticed that it floated. I've never dropped it in the water to see if it floated, its always been attached to my wrist, but in my experience I would say no
