The Hyper Vest by
Hyper Wear is a fantastic product. The first run I did with the vest was an hour. The vest was awesome. It felt like a second skin. I next wore the vest on an extremely hilly 5 mile run. Again the vest worked perfectly. I found given the same workout I lost about a pound more in weight. The next day I ran without the vest and I felt like I was flying. Nothing like instantly loosing 5lbs.
- Side Slide Cords allow for a lot of adjust-ability
- Ability to increase weight of the vest from 5lbs to 20lbs for the small and medium vests and 5lbs to 40lbs for the large and extra large vests.
- The vest acts like a second skin once zipped up and adjusted.
The Cons
- The vest gets a little warm on hot days. Not much you can do about this.
- It sometimes is hard to zip the vest back up if zipped down during hard workout sessions.
What I Would Change
- Add Slide Cords to the shoulder area for more adjust-ability.
- Add some type of hooks to the front, which would allow the vest to be unzipped yet still secure.
My Modifications
Usuful Tips
- Get the base model first with 5lbs. You may find that is all you need in your workouts.
