Hyperice - Hypervolt Bluetooth Percussion Massage Device - Silver

I do a moderate to intense work out 4 to 5 days a week every week for the last 10 years. My routine consists of 20-30 minutes of weight training followed by a 2-4 mile run which translates to 1 to 1.5 hour work out. Truth be told, I have neglected cool downs and pre-work out stretches and start out at 100mph and finish on a dime. That is not good. I probably would have kept on that pace until I ended up hurting myself until the Hypervolt came along! The Hypervolt is one of those products I saw out there and was very interested in but never took the plunge to invest in it. With just after a few days with it, it is now a product I will never not have again! It has really made me pause and appreciate a good pre and post workout routine and the huge benefits that come from doing them and I am super excited about that. First off, I excitedly grabbed it out of the box and started pounding away on my calves and fiddled around with the attachments provided. What I immediately noticed was how unlike other “massage wands” this is truly a full percussion massager. You feel the Hypervolt massage deeply in the muscles and tissues unlike the “massager wands” that vibrate fast and just itched my skin and can’t penetrate into the muscles or tissues. After the excitement factor lessoned just enough, I really got into what this incredible device could do. I opened up the quick start guide Hypervolt provides and got to work. The quick start guide is 5x5 cards that easily and quickly explain everything. Nice touch! After charging it and downloading the Hypervolt app on my iPhone I started the app. It asked me what kind of activities I do and I plugged that information into the app. Hypervolt then recommended some “routines” for me specifically based on my activities. It also had a feature you can select where you are hurting on human form diagram and it will give you massage routines to use! I really like that. Instead of just going randomly around my body looking for sore muscles (which was also fun) it gave me some intent and direction as to specific areas that would benefit from targeted massages. It also connected to my Apple Health App which I like. The quick start guide also told me what all the head attachments were used for. It came with 5. The attachments are fork, flat, bullet cushion and ball. I’m telling you… when you have that “fork” attachment on and you run that over a tense calves and forearms…it is life changing. I mean it…. Life changing. Anyway, I put the “flat” attachment on and opened up the app again and went to “all routines” in the Hypervolt app on my phone. There you can choose from warm up, recovery or maintenance routines. The app is super easy and very functional . I was going for a run and so I choose track star, Colleen Quigley’s, track routine. Her routine starts with the feet which suggested the “fork” attachment again. The attachments swap out very easily so no problem. What I love about the Hypervolt with bluetooth is I chose the “Coleen”routine and I watched her go through the routine using the Hypervolt and I just followed along. Thats what great about all the different routines. They demo as you do them so you always get it right. You can choose to manually control the intensity of the Hypervolt or let the app do it for you with the bluetooth throughout the routine. I like the app to do that because it times the intensity and can change the intensity which really feels amazing and I don’t have to think about it. The three intensity levels are great. I like them all. There are so many cool routines, from just relaxing to detox flushes. After my run I looked through the recovery routines in the app and focused on the “lower body flush” which focusses on the legs. The app connects to the Hypervolt messages and away you go. AMAZING! I also noticed a marked freshness in my muscles the next day and even though my run wasn’t super strenuous, I think that all the neglect of never doing a cool down or stretching prior to my work outs have been taking a toll. Just a few days with the Hypervolt has really made a huge difference!!! I feel a few years younger! I also found a real bonus that I had not anticipated with the Hypervolt and that is in the evenings before bed I will do the “Dailey Relax Glide Flush” to really just melt into bed! and on the flip side in the morning, any stiff spots (usually the lower back) gets a few minutes of the “ball” attachment and I’m ready for the day! I love this thing! I will never not have one again! I also really love how Hypervolt incorporates the interactive app with all the routines and the follow along videos and how the app can control the Hypervolt massager to maximize results and how the app can then keep track and learn all of my activities and routines. No lame pictographs of what I should be doing just really cool interactive real-time coaching as I go! Hypervolt is just incredible tech that really enhances my overall health. Highly recommend!

What a device!!! I love this thing! I have never had a percussion massager before so I didn't initially know what to expect. Upon delivery, it was ready to go. So I quickly got to work! Setup is super easy - just the motor/battery/head needs to be setup. The battery is removable if ever needed to be replaced. And the unit comes with 5 different "heads". Out of the box, you just have to place the appropriate head and turn it on. Having never used this before I was a bit confused with the head types. There is a small placard in the box that helps provide some info on them though. I'm a fairly athletic male. 6'2" 215lbs. I get out and coach my son's football team so I get sore from time to time. This was great for loosening those stiff and aching muscles. This particular model has Bluetooth. This allows you to install an apple IOS app and sync the Hypervolt with the app. Then you just follow along with the video! The app controls the speed setting and informs you of the proper head to utilize for the session. This runs you through many options head to toe for using the device! Quite a few things I had never considered! So BIG thumbs up for this! BE ADVISED - APP is only on the APPLE platform. So this is a bit of a negative for me being a primary Android user!! The device has a bit of weight so you don't have to rely on muscle power to run. I find the high-speed setting to be the best massage and the low setting to dig in deep for me! There is also a pressure level LED indicators on the back - basically providing 4 levels of pressure. I did go out and compare this to other devices. I found the build quality to be top-notch! not many others offered the self replaceable battery. Some other devices also had a charging "cradle" but I utilize the form shaped box to store my unit and I'm able to plug it in with no hindrance. So fewer options to break! and have to replace later. The battery lasts for hours - I never ran out of power during any of my multiple back-to-back sessions without a charge. This would last for a small trip if needed, even though the charger is small as well. I do need to look at some options as I would like to be able to get to my back a bit easier. Which is the only location I can't hit myself. This device is a bit pricier than their competitors but you get MUCH better quality. In both head options, application, replaceable battery, non-proprietary charger, and most importantly the Motor- this thing just keeps going no matter the pressure or speed you setup!!! It doesn't LAG at all. Overall the only negative I could say is the lack of Android app - but this device works on its own. But the app provides more ways to utilize the product and ideas for future use!

The Hypervolt is extremely relaxing. It has 5 different attachments along with a carrying case. I tried them all and found one to be too hard. My favorites were the 3 tiered cushion and the "Y" shaped attachment. There are also several levels of pressure. I found I could only use it on the lowest pressure. I am not a gym person and don't need deep muscle massage so perhaps those higher levels would be more appropriate for someone who worked out more. On the negative side, found the unit heavy to hold in one hand and the handle is a little large. I am able to massage my upper shoulders but a slightly longer handle would have permitted massages further down the back. I have been using it for about a week and it has held its first charge without a problem I use it every day to massage my shoulders and neck before bed. It truly relaxes me.

I purchased the Hypervolt for my wife for Christmas and she uses it daily. It features 3 intensities and a wide array of attachments that make it effective in massage nearly all muscles throughout the body. The charge lasts a very long time and the LED lets you know when it needs charging. It's also great for knowing when the device is powered on so you don't accidentally drain the battery when not in use. The Hypervolt is exceptionally quiet but very powerful. The only drawback is the vibration felt in the hand can feel weird after a while after using it but a short break is all that is required. It's weight is well balanced; not enough to make your arm tired but enough to keep your hand from bouncing around as you use the tool. Looking forward to getting a lot more use out of this product!

Great device! My wife and I enjoyed this machine and it comes with good mobile app to target specific areas of the body.

battery pack didn't last long ( a few months) ... and a replacement battery costs about $79 so not sure if it's worth replacing the battery every few months, or what is suppose to be the lifespan of the battery pack?

I really wasn’t sure what to expect with this product. It looked like a great way to address sore and tight muscles, so I was excited to try it! To start, I am not an athlete or someone who does a lot of regular exercise, so I can’t really comment on how it helps with recovering from workouts. That being said, I am sitting down at the computer often which strains my neck and causes my muscles to get tight. This product really surprised me. I did not expect how good the vibrations would feel as well as how they would loosen tight muscles and give a lighter feeling to areas that experience a lot of tension. As soon as I started using it, I immediately used it up in my neck and shoulder area. I definitely think it helped to loosen up that area, and it really feels good using it in areas that can be sore and strained. I also used it on my legs and other areas and it felt great everywhere I tried it! This product is very simple and easy to use. The design is sleek and feels well-made. I had no trouble figuring out how to use it, just turn it on and then press the speed setting button to get it going. This device comes with 5 massage attachments, which will be great for using it in different applications. The app gives your more information on what specific situation each attachment works best for, which was also helpful. The routines I used in the app showed what attachment to use which made deciding on the right one super easy. Not only did this device surprise me, but the app did as well. I wasn’t sure how useful an app would be for a product like this, but it turned out that it has some really useful features! As I mentioned briefly before, they have several “routines” in the app and when you select one, it pairs your phone with the Hypervolt and starts up the device. The routines are really cool because you get to watch a video of someone demonstrating how to use the device in a specific place as the Hypervolt runs in sync at the same time. As time progresses, the app automatically increases the speed of the Hypervolt and then it lowers the speed back down gradually after some time. If you prefer to set the speed for the whole time, you can also manually set it during the routine on the app. You can also pause the exercise video on the app and the Hypervolt stops running until you resume it on your phone. It is so cool that the app can control this device and operate it along with the routines! It is easier to have the app controlling the speed rather than pressing the button in the app, and it is also nice that it times you and demonstrates what to do. I was really impressed with the Hyperice app. It looks like it was just released in the app store a week or two ago, so I was impressed at how well it functioned without issues and how well designed it was, especially since it is so new! The app really makes using this device even easier and more exciting and it takes the guesswork out of how and where to use it. It was so fun and easy using this device along with the app! Like I mentioned I earlier, I wasn’t sure what to expect with this product, but I am really impressed! It is simple to use, feels great, works great, and the app also works well, adds some useful features, and is beautifully designed! I would definitely recommend this to others! I think this will really help me address the soreness and tightness in my neck and shoulders as well as address issues in other areas going forward!

I bought this after I started going back to the gym and my body started asking me “the heck do you think you’re doing?” I was getting sore again after each workout and I needed something to help with the “edge.” After doing some research on some Shark Testosterone and Wolf Clawing Treatment (I’m kidding guys and girls,) I decided to pull the trigger on one of these bad boys and let me tell you this. I don’t use it for just after workouts. This device has got to be my best friend. I use it every single day before a workout, after a workout, and right before bed. I say “ahhh” so much while using the Hypervolt that my dentist and girlfriend get jealous! It really works that good. If you’re in need of a remedy for those after workout pains, want something to help with blood circulation prior to a workout, or just flat out want to feel better all over your body, stop reading this and buy one of these, NOW!
