Men’s Health & Women’s Health + Hyper Vest & SandBell = Functional Fitness Fun! – MMM #46

March 15th, 2010

We’re taking a brief break from the TRX series to introduce you to some new friends.  We also want to share with you about FitSchools – a program whose mission is to fight childhood obesity by improving physical education – something we support 100%.

FitSchools was the focus of this gathering in Dallas, TX, on this particular trip.  We got to show a large group of school-age children how fun physical fitness can be and then we had our own fun!

Afterward, Naomi Piercey of Women’s Health Magazine, Adam Bornstein of Men’s Health Magazine, and David Jack of CATZ joined me for a workout using the SandBells, Hyper Vest PRO and Hyper Vest COOL.  We were sure to incorporate Hyper Wear’s two favorite elements in this impromptu workout: fun and functional fitness!

Take a look at our moves and try them out for yourself!  We love making friends on the road!

Hyper Wear and Men’s Health FitSchools have fun with SandBells at H.S. Thompson School in Dallas

December 16th, 2009

Men’s Health is fighting the childhood obesity epidemic through their program called FitSchools. They joined with Dallas Cowboys Safety, Ken Hamlin, to inspire the children of H.S. Thompson to stay active. A couple of folks from the Hyper Wear gang were also on hand to run the kids through some fun SandBell exercises. Take a look at the video footage and see if you can spot Coaches Sparrow and Bill as well as Cosmo sporting the Hyper Vest in the background!
