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!

You’ll find a sweet blurb about our SandBells!  Thanks for the shout-out, guys!

Among them were some SandBells that Adam was glad to keep! His statement was “…the thief (or thieves) missed out on the true treasures of my car…” Read his blog post about the ordeal and see what the Men’s Health fitness editor is reading these days about strength training (the thieves left his book behind, as well…that thief doesn’t know good stuff when he sees it!).

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!
