Make Your Move in the Hyper Vest® PRO

This revolutionary weight vest is changing the game in fitness, weighing you down to step up your performance. Run, train, lift, carry, hustle. Whatever you do, the PRO Vest does it with you, only training you harder, making you a better, faster, more efficient and responsive machine. 

How does this revolutionary weight vest work? Simply, dynamically and effectively, and that’s it. The Hyper Vest PRO employs a patented control system and fabric that allows the user to continuously engage in active movement. The vest’s individually pocketed weights are held firmly to your core, its horizontal elasticity around your chest allows for full chest expansion and the breathable, wicking fabric serves to step up comfort and versatility. Even better the load is fully adjustable. 

And that’s what’s innovative about this vest.

No matter how vigorously you train, how hard you push or how fast you go, your performance will only see improvement. Traditional weighted vests can cause unnecessary discomfort and impair breathing. The weight vest’s advanced technology and design were created to improve and strengthen, not inhibit and interfere. Any way you put it, wear it, move it and work it, the Hyper Vest PRO comfortably fits to your body, challenging your muscles—even the ones you didn’t know you had. 

Your Vest, Your Move. 

Benefits? This vest has plenty. Adding weight to the core during any type of movement or exercise works to intensify the workout, increase cardiovascular requirements, challenge muscles to build mass and magnify overall resistance. And that’s not even the best part. The design of the Hyper Vest PRO evenly distributes weight over the body’s core. As a result, wearing the vest feels as comfortable as a compression shirt, acting like a weighted layer on top of your core.

Wear this vest anytime, anywhere, while you’re engaging in any type of activity—seriously. Whether you’re an athlete focusing on sports performance training, or engaging in tactical training for the military, fire department or police squad, this vest will work for you. Use the vest during general fitness activities, to improve overall health, step up your weight loss goals and even aid in the prevention of osteoporosis. 

Real Results, Functional Features.

Research and practical application have proven that training with weighted garments can improve endurance, overall strength and increase your body’s maximum threshold capacity. Weighted vests have also been shown to aid in the areas of rehabilitation and injury recovery. For those not interested in athletic or vigorous training, wearing a weight vest during daily activity can increase functional strength and fitness levels and improve your body’s quick-response reaction time.

Functional, practical, wearable—the driving forces behind the design process of the Hyper Vest PRO, and reasons why this vest is the choice of industry leading trainers, athletes and coaches. The weight vest’s generously cut armholes, v-neck style and short waist length allow the body full range of motion and ease of movement. Also, being equipped with cinching drawstrings at the waist and sides gives the user the ability to adjust the vest to their preferred comfort and chest compression level. 

Sizing and Specifications. 

The Hyper Vest PRO is available in sizes XX-small, extra-small, small, medium, large, extra-large and XX-large. Each vest comes pre-loaded at 10 pounds. Additional booster packs with 5 pounds of weight are also available for purchase, and each vest is sold with a special tool for inserting and loading weights.

Another feature of the Hyper Vest PRO is its adjustable weight pocket system. This allows each pocket in the vest to be double-loaded with weights, further allowing you to tailor the vest to your unique training needs.

To choose which size Hyper Vest PRO is designed for you, follow our simple sizing guide that uses your general height and weight to determine your appropriate size.

Q: How do I determine the correct size for my Hyper Vest PRO?

A: Instead of height and waist size, we have figured out a way to determine what size you need based on your circumference at your belly button. The correct size for you should extend from your shoulders to around your belly button. We have constructed a chart that you can follow to determine what size is right for you, which is above. Also, the videos should help all you visual people out there!

Q: What is the most weight that can be added to the Hyper Vest PRO per size?

A: It ranges based on the size of the vest. Below is the approximate maximum weight capacity, based on number of available pockets, per vest size.

XXS:        
XS:
Sm:
Med:
Lg:
XL:
XXL:
8 lb
14 lb
20 lb
20 lb
30 lb
40 lb
60 lb


Do note that it is rare that anyone should need to fill their entire vest with the maximum amount of weight listed above. We believe in the training style commonly known as 'Functional Fitness'. Instead of trying to max-out the muscles with high weight - short duration - linear / isometric exercises, we have seen better performance, strength, speed, and stamina come from tri-planar activities that require less weight and are performed for a greater length of time. So, instead of a static set of 100 reps of push-ups, sit-ups, and pull-ups with a 40lb weight vest, you can wear the Hyper Vest PRO all day with 10-15lbs and periodically pushing yourself off of objects and people in different angles and for different durations/exertions - requiring 'real world', tri-planar extensions and contractions. This functional training with the Hyper Vest PRO primes the body for chaotic/real world situations.

Q: What should I expect the first time I wear my Hyper Vest PRO?

A: See our video section for first time users, Hyper Vest PRO Just out of the package video. The Hyper Vest PRO should fit very snuggly. When putting it on, first make sure that the side strings are loose so that the zipper is easy to zip up. Once the Zipper is up, cinch up the side strings so that its quite snug; then stuff cords into vest around the back or front. The Hyper Vest PRO should extend down around the bellybutton. Stretch your arms up and side to side and twist torso  the straps of Hyper Vest PRO should stay in place (sitting on shoulders); while the body of the weight vest may ride up minimally up on torso. When putting weights in for the first time, pockets will be tight. They will relax over time with use. When weights are in pockets, make sure top flap of pocket is pulled over weight as much as possible  this prevents weights from sliding out during high-impact activity.

Q: Does the Hyper Vest PRO fit my body type?

A: The Hyper Vest PRO utilizes a natural vest model, which allows the vest to comfortably fit the average torso length based upon the circumference at your belly button height. The weight vest is not designed from a one-size-fits-all model, because we use a space-age compression fabric that allows us to create multiple sizes to conform to multiple sizing needs. The side cinching strings allow the user to control the tightness of the Hyper Vest PRO with a quick pull. Since the vest sizes are calculated based on girth, the Hyper Vest PRO always places the weights in an optimal center of gravity across the core.

Additional weight can be purchased as 5 lb of weight in the Hyper Vest PRO Booster Weight Pack.  

Q: How do I put in more weights or remove them?
 

A: To install additional weights, simply open the top of the slot with your fingers, or the Hyper Horn, and slide the weight into place. To remove, we suggest using the Hyper Horn, as it can be tricky to remove the weights with only your hands.

Q: Can I wash my Hyper Vest PRO?

A: Yes, the Hyper Vest PRO can be washed. We highly recommend you wash by hand with mild detergent. DO NOT DRY IN THE DRYER! Simply towel dry and then air dry on a strong hanger. Feel free to freshen it with Febreze® if desired.

Please note that you will not have to wash the Hyper Vest PRO very often.   It is made with a fabric that is highly repellant to water and odor.   Since most of your odor originates around the neck and armpits, very little odor causing agents are deposited on the vest.   Also, armpits and sides do not have much fabric covering them, if any at all, because of the side strings.   We do recommend wearing a dri-fit, thin, wicking shirt under the vest, if possible.

Q: I am experiencing some wear on my Hyper Vest PRO, what should I do?

A: We recommend that you do not drop your Hyper Vest PRO on the floor or hit it against any hard surface. Such impacts may pierce the fabric. We also recommend that you do not allow anything to rub against the Hyper Vest PRO, including a bag strap.   Like any fabric, friction will wear on the fabric. Treat the vest like a garment and you shouldn't have any problems!
