Nike and super hypear

What do they do and why do you look very strange?

Hyperboot is not conservative. It is large and huge and it seems that it aims to accompany an astronaut on the moon corridor. Although most of the contestants, the informal and the professionals are used on massive running shoes, they are still larger-and much. The reason for the presence of a lord, and the secret sauce of these recovery shoes, is that they have the same integrated air pressure technology that you will find in Normatec shoes (bought Hyperice Normatec in 2020).

Known as Aerobic compressors (IPC) intermittentThey use a system of air and room pumps to amplify and implement a regular recurrence pattern. The idea behind this is that by expanding and collapsing in a systematic way, blood flow and lymphatic liquid movement increases, allowing a better role and removal of waste, theory, faster recovery – all during sitting, resting and relaxing.

In addition to this pressure technology, Hyperboot added another feature: heat. While getting your feet and ankles, the device rises. Since the heat is known to relax the muscles, adding it with the pressure technique must allow more blood flow and fluid movement; Also, heat is just a really nice feeling.

How do you feel shoes?

Unfortunately, I do not hate them. Unfortunately, I say because it really, who really wants to fall in love with a $ 900 recovery shoe?

Unlike Normatec shoes or similar compression sleeves from other brands, Hyperboot is supposed to be a refund and warm -up device, which means that for the most benefits of them, shoes must be worn before and after exercise. Contestants and other athletes often fall into three camps: they celebrate or both of the worshipers. I fall in the fourth category in terms of sedition: I forget it intentionally. But for this review, I pretended that I belonged firmly in the third category.

During her work period for two weeks, she wore hyperboot before and after every one run-I promised!-which ranged between three to five miles, two wives of separation exercises faster, and a distance of 8 miles at the weekend, I found myself looking forward to my training only because that means that spending some time in shoes. After spent a decent amount of my free time in Normatec legs During many marathon builds around 2018 until 2022, I know that the “fresh legs” that these devices can create. It is a light and uninterrupted air experience. The new difficulties on this front were not disappointed. The addition of the heat caused this feeling to enter one of these foot baths with a massacre, but without preparing and cleaning messy water.

Preparing the shoes themselves was clear. The shoes are shipped across two USB-C ropes connected to the wall charger. Shipping will last for about 1.5 hours (i.e. a long time in shoes; see below) each of the pressure buttons and heat have three ranges of intensity.

Once the device is connected and turned on, the hyperboots will be pressed to each foot. The starting button will start to the serial pressure and heat. Initially, both settings – expression and heat strength – turned to a maximum. While intense pressure was not annoying (the opposite), the heat soon became unbearable. The heat ranges from 111 degrees Fahrenheit at the lowest level to 125 degrees Fahrenheit at the highest level. Be careful: it was so hot that I had to remove the shoes in the middle of the session (although I was so hot that I had to run under cold water or got a burning, don’t worry). I have since learned that I am either steeped when it comes to heat or that shoes are very hot. Either way, I only managed to withstand shoes at the lowest possible temperature. Even with this setting, the feeling of a hot water bath comes well.

I was surprised by the extent that the shoes made my feet and ankle feel refreshed, relaxed and recovered equally to start the exercise, as well as restore it if you have just recovered from one. The main concept behind the shoes, According to Nike’s HyperIt is that your ankles and your feet are important but forgotten and tackled. Technically, and Normatec legs Cover your feet and your ankles, so if you already have a pair of her (which is the same as Hyperboot at the moment), you may wonder what Hyperboot can provide.

After I tried both, I will say that Hyperboot provides more ankle targeting compression compared to the Normatec legs, and once you finish, you can really feel the difference. Hyperboot make ankle feel light, ventilation quality and ready to exercise the next exercise. Equally, adding heat was not minimal. I made a remarkable difference – tolerance! – To feel after wearing it.

Technically, the shoes are designed so that you can stand, walk, sit or travel all while obtaining the benefits of pressure and heat. In that memo, TSA shoes are approved to celebrate, according to Hyperice. But also in this memo, if I am honest, I have faced a big problem to force myself to leave my apartment in these shoes. Inside my apartment, I could wear it for hours while cleaning, cooking and doing other homework. The middle is very convenient and shoes, in general, the fan is similar to the feeling of wearing Carbon plate racing shoes. However, I felt that I got the maximum benefit from it only by sitting, relaxing and allowing pressure and heat. Because I deeply care about my reading, I forced myself to wear them outside twice: once to get coffee and wander around me and another time for the grocery store. Many people looked at my feet. Nobody asked the questions.

Does it really help you recover faster? What does science say?

It cannot be denied that these shoes make your feet happy. But how does this translate into real recovery? What is the evidence that we have to support? This is where things are more difficult.

It was a pressure device technology It was originally developed Patients in the hospital for the hospital to prevent blood clots. The periodic pressure mimics what will happen if someone is going, for example, walking along the hospital wing, which may be the same as the distance of the city’s mass or less. Doctors knew that prolonged stalemate increases the risk of blood, so by simulating movement, these shoes would reduce the risk of these dangerous clots in a person who could not move. Later, the founder of Normatec, a doctor named Laura Jacobs, has particularly transformed these devices to help people who deal with lymphoma after surgery in breast cancer. Her device was then He came to the sports community As Normatec legs. If it can help the blood flow and lymphatic drainage in the people who are not tolerated in the hospital, this may also help athletes.

But there is hunting for this. The difference between the athlete – from the elite to the amateur – and a non -moving patient in the hospital that recovers from surgery is that the athlete can walk in a building in the city. Unfortunately, there is still a little evidence that these pressure devices do anything to recover more than walking can provide. New Hyperboot, so there are no independent studies of their effectiveness. However, since Normatec’s legs came out, there have been a number of studies looking at whether these devices help recover.

A 2020 studies published In the International Journal of Exercise Sciences, 10 remote hostility (five females and five male runners) followed and monitored what they felt after running that ended in a session with pressure shoes (Normatec legs or that similar) and operating them does not include a post -running session. The study concluded that “it seems that there are no great benefits from IPC in promoting recovery.” A 2024 twist analysis, combines a wide range of studies on the same topics and looking for comprehensive trends, Posted in Sports Biology MagazineI looked at 17 studies, which included a total of 319 participants, and concluded that the shoes provided a “trivial effect to moderate” on signs of pain muscle pain and “a very variable effect” on the signs that look at muscle damage. The authors have found that this technology “may be a method with possible healing effects in sport, mainly reduces perceived soreness.”

The problem is that Christie Ashwandin, author of “Christie Ashwinin” book It is good to goOn the science of sports recovery, Renner saidIt is really difficult to measure what recovery is or means “there is no single physiological measure – not the heart rate, body temperature, or moisturizing state – which will tell you whether you have been recovered or not.” In fact, “How do you feel?” It is a common way to monitor recovery.

In this context, Hyperboot made me feel good. I felt better after wearing shoes than I did before putting them. This was true every time I wore it. And I looked at her, to the extent that they made me look to the difficult exercises that I was somewhat afraid. However, at a price of $ 900, if I can get the same interest that Hyperboot provides by walking to and from the garden in which I run instead of starting it once I leave my apartment, I may choose that. Although it will not be comfortable or fun.
