US Olympic Decathlete
Gold Medal Winner in 2009 and 2010 Decathlon World Championships
Trey used the Hyper Vest PRO weight vest in preparation for the 2009 season: "I have never seen or used a weight vest like the Hyper Vest PRO. It stays tight, comfortable and cool on my body enabling me to increase my bodyweight while training. It makes adding resistance to my workouts effortless and I would recommend it to any track and field athlete who is looking to take the next step."
James Cotter
Pro-Triathlete using the Hyper Vest PRO and Hyper Vest COOL
"I often wear a Hyper Vest PRO during a trail run or speed work on the track. Just 6 pounds added to my body weight is actually quite challenging and it definitely has helped increase my leg strength. Hyperwear also has a cooling vest, the Hyper Vest COOL, to help athletes cool their core before training or competition. I got to try the prototype out for a couple of weeks until I received the real deal. I used it before and after long rides as well as on the trainer. It helped keep my body temperature down which is a tremendous help. I read claims by Nike that their precool vest provided to olympic athletes in Beijing could improve performance 21%."

Firefighter, Tested Through Fire
Sunday night my station was first engine in on a church fire. The fire hadn't advanced too far, and we were able to limit the fire's spread to a hallway and office damage. The cool thing about this fire is that it was my first fire since I started wearing the Hyper Vest PRO. I've been wearing 10 lb for all workouts and for approximately 10 hours a day. So, when the call came, I threw off the vest and threw on my gear, which is around 40-50lb with airpack. The biggest thing for me was the longer work time before exhaustion and oxygen consumption. My buddy's low air alarm went off, and I still had 3/4 of a tank left! That means I was consuming less oxygen due to being better conditioned thanks to the Hyper Vest PRO. Tested under fire with a real world pay-off with the vest: My body was better prepared for the weight of the fire gear and the high physical strain of the work required. I look forward to adding more weight and seeing the results in the future.

"I tore my anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in one of my volleyball games, I wasn't sure what to expect with rehabilitation after surgery. The surgery itself was painful, I couldn't walk for about a week even with crutches and I wasn't ready to do any form of rehab for almost 2 weeks. The doctors said it would be 12 months before I would be able to touch a volleyball again. After the surgery I was amazed how much muscle I lost from the entire leg not just around the knee area. I knew I would have to work on not just strengthening my knee, but also on rebuilding my leg muscles to stabilize the knee and return to full function. Rehab started two weeks after surgery and began with simple baseline testing of how strong my knee was, how far I could extend (straighten) or flex (bend) my knee. The first goal was to regain the range of motion I had lost. That was the worst part of the rehab. I was stretched and bent to excruciating points and held to regain the laxity in my ligaments. Through 6 months of hard rehabilitation my knee continued to gain strength but it felt like it was hitting a plateau. I then decided to purchase a Hyper Vest PRO from Hyperwear to help rebuild the rest of the muscle and strength that I needed to get back on the court. The hyper vest totally exceeded the expectations that I had for it. It was very comfortable and un-noticeable which was a big factor for me. I could wear it to work without anyone ever noticing that I had it on. It was better then purchasing ankle weights because ankle weights did not apply the weight in the proper areas that I needed to strengthen. I started out by wearing 5 pounds for a week and then graduated to 10 pounds for another 2 weeks. I used it not only at work but during my training to increase the intensity on my knee. After about a moth of using the hyper vest I had graduated to 15 pounds of weight on the vest and had lost most the everyday pain in my knee. I also had noticed that I had regained a ton of my strength in my thigh and had even lost a few pounds which really help relieve a ton of stress on my knee. It has been eight months after surgery and I am starting to play volleyball again at almost full pace. I still use the hyper vest in my everyday routines. I definitely recommend the Hyper Vest to everyone out there no matter what your goals are. The Hyper Vest is a lot smaller and more comfortable then all other weight vest out there. It is great for sports training, weight loss, and everyday use, and I highly recommend it for rehabilitation.
