The Jack Rabbit Trainer Plate set from TREX ARMORY is designed to add weight to plate carriers for training purposes, not ballistic protection. These plates are filled with steel shot and are flexible for comfort. They are specifically weighted to meet requirements for the Tactical Games (15 lbs for male athletes, 12 lbs for female athletes) and can also be used for gym workouts or range training to increase heart rate and test shooting accountability under stress. The plates are designed to fit snugly in smaller plate carriers like the AC1 and can also be used in medium and large carriers, with optional plate backers recommended for better fitment and airflow in larger sizes.
