I've been working out with a weight vest. So far my workouts have been "just" walking. I put the word just in quotes because I live at the top of a hill with a grade you might normally expect in San Francisco or a place like that. The vest is neoprene.
I've been wearing the vest with a light t-shirt. A couple of days ago, I noticed a few small red dots on my abdomen. I thought it might have been a slight irritation from the end of the vest so I started wearing a heavier t-shirt. But...when I took a shower this morning, I saw I had more of it. Its not irritation from the edge of the vest, its a mild heat rash...which I'm kind of prone to getting.
I have been wearing cotton T-shirts under the vest when I go out to work out. Should I be thinking about buying some rash guards to wear instead of the cotton tees? Or would that not help much?
