[@sportssciencetranslatorcc9776]

Great review Joe! Here is a quick breakdown Theragun vs Hypervolt : 1) Speed setting: 1 vs 3 2) Percussions per minute: 2k-2k5 vs up to 3k2 3) Battery per full charge: 40-45 min vs up to 3 hr 4) Perpetual power on/off: yes vs yes 5) Angle adjustable: yes vs no 6) Weight: 2.5 lbs vs 2.5 lbs 7) Carry case: yes vs no 8) Number of Batteries : 2 vs 1 9) Heads : 4(ball, big ball, sharp, gentle dampener) vs 4 (flat, fork, ball, penetrator) 10) Price: $600 vs $350 11) Sound: As shown @3:47

[@bradjamc]

I have used both at the studio. I don't think ppl really realize how LOUD the G2 is. To give you an example, I would not be able to use it in my apartment in the evening, because I would get a noise ordinance violation, because my neighbors would think I am doing late night construction work. This is not an exaggeration. Having both devices at our studio, almost everybody prefers the Hypervolt, and if both of them are taken, they will usually wait rather than using the G2.

[@skylardomine4812]

I own and use both on myself and clients. Between these two models for sure the hyper volt because it's price, quiet, and settings are so useful as you do not always want it on the max level like the theragun is constantly on. Some females or even sore muscles on a 250 lbs line backer need to be approached low or mid range.

[@theXaint]

How does the level 3 setting on the hypervolt compare to the theragun?

[@josephnevin3451]

Does the hypervolt volt still get knot out skylar

[@KngsTiger]

The TheraGun is simply a cosmetically repackaged $50 jigsaw, including battery and charger. The HyperVolt motor can be stressed and slowed with heavy pressure; and there is a big difference in power, quality, and durability between the HV and the Raptor. However, the Raptor is ridiculously overpriced, but of course they are targeting a much smaller market in health practitioners. And the HyperVolt is more vibratory than percussion on the two lower speeds. Good luck with either machine lasting more than 1 year with moderate/heavy personal use. And with the TheraGun only having a one year guarantee (it should have two year) this is quite discouraging and can be real expensive real quickly.

[@RickLeeish]

The Theragun has a longer throw about 1/2 inch where the Hypervolt is about 3/8 and is why it feels like a harder punch. I have purchased both and kept the Hypervolt because of the 3 speeds and sound was much quieter.

[@danmal2711]

Got my theragun for fathers day 2019 and it came with a case and 5 different tips. Love it and it feel so good on my muscles after working all day.

[@anousonebounket6100]

Watch this at 1.5x speed

[@ramtron1775]

Anousone Bounket. I didnt see your comment untill the end. His delivery is so monotone.

[@sabokken9108]

this guy talks like a trurtle

[@starksenterprises]

Shit, I forgot I had it at 1.5x speed... I can't imagine how slow he spoke without! Goodness me. Decent review though!

[@rickc6082]

This is the best advice on the whole thread

[@DubZer020]

Anousone Bounket if you want to just get through a video yea most definitely. However, I love his pace. Some people get hit with information overload.

[@Engearment]

Hey Joe! Great review and comparison. We tested the Hyperice Hypervolt and really liked it (review up as well) I used it in our gym and our PT uses it in a clinical setting. It was nice to hear the difference between the two in your video. Very well done!! We are going to be meeting up with Theragun at Outdoor Retailer this week, so we look forward to "feeling" the difference too. Keep up the great work! - Sean Sewell

[@robertmassey7391]

Great review Joe. You did a great job explaining everything a person needs to know to make a sound purchase. Well done.

[@sunethsilva2720]

mine from 79.90 with 1 year warranty really good deal healanfeel.com/collections/heal-and-feel/products/massage-gun?variant=31260049735738

[@MyThelema]

I've got the HyperVolt and mine's been running for 4,5 hours on one charge. Impressive battery life.

[@basketballplayers]

Are you a physical therapist???

[@alicialancaster4818]

Thanks for the review Joe!

[@The_Daliban]

why didn't you compare level 3 of the hypervolt with the theragut.would have been interesting to know

[@Zavareh99]

I've used both and had both used on me. You are correct. The Theragun packs more of a punch, but do you really need a sledgehammer all the time? I find the 3 settings on the Hypervolt way better. The Hypervolt gets my vote any day of the week.

[@theXaint]

Thanks!

[@josephnevin3451]

Hay zavareh does the hypervolt break knots up thank you

[@philthethrill31]

I recently bought the Theragun G2Pro (at a super discounted price of $399 as well as financing) and it’s amazing. The sound is definitely the biggest difference between the two products is definitely the sound, from what I hear from this video at least. Although the G2Pro has only one speed setting, it’s at a speed where it isn’t too intense and can easily be modified by applying different amounts of pressure. I’m definitely recommending Theragun. As far as price difference, check to see the website. I’m not sure if when I bought it, it was on a holiday sale or not.

[@MidlifeCredo]

Just unboxed my Theragun G3Pro. Quieter than the older version and…wooooohhhh!

[@שרון-ו1ע]

נכון מאוד.

[@360above2]

seems like the distance of the movement between the two are different as well. Would be interesting to see if there was a way you could determine the total movement distance

[@psdale4]

I have the hypervolt. I can't speak for the other device don't have one. I really like the hypervolt. It's lightweight, long battery life, quiet, has three settings, it doe's a great job stimulating the areas I use it for. Not the easiest to use on yourself but you can get ok results. Having someone using it on you works better. It does grab your clothing somewhat but not a big deal. Using it on bare skin works best. Price is reasonable considering others can cost up to $600. Got my hypervolt for around $350. I would highly recommend it.

[@mello8300]

Excellent review

[@aaronguy6890]

I’m sorry. The Theragun is WAY too loud. My colleagues have it at my PT Gym and I can hear it across the building. The hypervolt all the way man.

[@RickLeeish]

The ThereGun has too much of a punch and feels like a burn if you don't have it going straight down on your body. My wife made me return it because she didn't like the noise. The HyperVolt has a less punch but is still hard enough to do the job and has 3 speeds to make sure your happy.

[@JFlex76]

As an athlete I need to get deep into the muscle. I've had different types of percussion devices, non have performed like the Theragun g2, just wish it wasn't so loud.

[@jvanbuskirk3]

Jesse have you tried the hypervolt? Just wondering how it compares for you to the G2.

[@sonicwoofer2008]

They haveG3 pro now

[@flaberdoopin]

Awesome... thanks for the video... ordering my hypervolt now!

[@culibas]

But doesn't the level 3 setting on the hypervolt pack more much than the theragun?

[@spinedoc18]

I use the Vibracussor from Impac. The only down side is that it is corded but it does have 10 variable speeds and many types of attachment heads. It has been going strong for me for more than 10 years now. I was intrigued by the Hypervolt due to cordless flexibility but I don't think it will give me what the Vibracussor does.

[@jsquared5405]

They now make adaptors for jigsaws that cost about $60. More affordable option for some.

Great video. Waiting to get my hypervolt

[@bogdanbondarenko1589]

Hi Mister! Thanks for review! And what is better for professional athlete?

[@eveeve9279]

I had a Hyperice Vyper vibrating foam roller and it broke within the first MONTH. The motor died. Super super disappointing because it would’ve been a lifesaver.

[@R2WDiscCenter]

Thanks Dude. This was helpful.

[@doreenaddorisio8871]

thank you for this info...Helps with my decision.

[@wrinklysocks]

Ty, so many trash video reviews don't even showcase the sound of either device. Ty for showing the volume.

[@birgitgjwar]

Great review, thank you!

[@thetrenchplatediaries]

Great review, articulate, great stuff. #subscribed 🤘🏻

[@TboneF1racing]

Its ridiculous how loud the theragun is...That would disturb people even in a gym lol

[@craigstahlke9788]

Sounds like a construction site

[@jonathanarnold5962]

Some Massage Envy's have syarted incorporsting the hypervolt as an add on to their massage packages. In just found that out today. So before spending the hundreds on either. Try it ..(I'm Just a customer not an employee)

[@ProfessorSteez]

What do you think about the Hypervolt’s ability to work and release trigger points? I’m looking for something that can help that more-so than a massager.

[@mrmann5117]

Theragun is waaay better. You only need one speed. It has a dampner as a ambit.. Also my second G2Pro bought 1 year after release was improved upon (My first got stolen). It's now quieter and feels like they changed the motor.

[@hffunghk]

Does the charger work properly across the world, from 110V to 220V, so that we can travel along with it? Thank you.

[@Allanbr2012]

I’m truly baffled that you didn’t compare the 3rd level of the hyper ice on your arm to the theragun. Someone who is concerned about hypervolt possibly being too weak is obviously going to want to compare the hypervolts max setting to the theragun. I now have to find another video since you ignored what is, by your own admission, the number one question asked - what is the strength potential of the hypervolt. I don’t normally complain about KZbin videos but that was just frustrating.

[@WBennAshley]

The test was to compare power rather than hertz, though. Level 3 vibrates faster than theragun, not harder.

[@boogalooshrimp5347]

Really? You’re upset about that? C’mon man.

[@wrinklysocks]

I agree. I feel like he covered everything else well. But leaving out the lvl 3 pisses me off

[@bethestandardallday]

he's plain dumb for not doing that

[@RenneVelarde23]

Oh boo hoo.

[@jujunue]

Which is more durable? I am planning to use daily. Can you say which last longer? Thank you 😊 🙏🏽

[@strengthandconditioningbyLuka]

Very hard decision, because I’m working with the athletes. I almost bought hipervolt, because it’s not that loud, and definitely TheraGun it’s too expensive. 630 eur in Europe. But if hipervolt it’s not strong enough!? That’s a big problem. I’ll wait for more reviews. Thank you!

[@frangipani-dreams]

Where do you get the Hypervolt in EU?

[@strengthandconditioningbyLuka]

Olly M hiperice.eu. I bought it yesterday. Shipping beginning of April

[@heliosasher]

lebron James uses the Hypervolt, unless your athletes are bigger than him...

[@strengthandconditioningbyLuka]

helios asher I never really believe in things that top athletes use on tv. I work on top level, and sometimes it’s all about money.

[@strengthandconditioningbyLuka]

I bought it anyway. TheraGun is just too loud. I can’t use it in smaller gyms or hotel rooms.

[@wrinklysocks]

Disappointed you did not show lvl 3 on the other gun. Like really man

[@2jzdrift95ify]

I agree it really perturbed me. To get a partial review.

[@majid6222]

Nice .I prefer to have both

[@angelvidal1974]

Is the hyper volt good for your lower back?

[@ah5650]

Don’t get a Hypervolt. They don’t let you return it if you’re not happy with it. It is much quieter than the Theragun but it is less effective on muscle pain. Because of their return policy, when you find this out, you’re SOL.

[@terracotta101]

He didn't mention the the hypervolt is $350 and the theragun is $600. I didn't want to pay $600 for something that annoys the crap out of everyone in the gym. All of my clients love the hypervolt

[@ProfessorSteez]

Terra Cardwell Is this meant to take to the gym? Seems a bit extreme, people read way too much into the marketing.

[@jennw6354]

Thanks for the very helpful review! It would be nice to see a review of the TimTam vs. Theragun, as it seems like same type product but only $399. Still a tough decision as Theragun and the TimTam appear to be the strongest yet the noise level when clients are trying to relax is not great. Wish the Hypervolt appeared stronger.

[@massagepromed]

I have this at home and i feel its quite strong, especially when using the Prong or bullet shaped heads for specific work. I have both at the facility i work at, almost every single person I have used the hypervolt on has preferred it.

[@ezskanken]

Desmond Diaz If you had to choose one, which would it be? Hypervolt, Theragun, or TimTam?

[@massagepromed]

well, I just bought a 2nd hypervolt to have 2 to work with if that helps. My athletes really enjoy it over the theragun. the only downside is they don't have a travel case as yet. so I bought a pelican for it. that way i can carry around 2 when i travel. if you dont, then its easy

[@theXaint]

thanks!

Hi Joe Can you exchange the battery from the hypervolt? I got an offer at the FIBO for the theragun at 400 €, which one would you recommend if both are at the same prize? Nice Video, greetings from germany

I’m interested in a review of the TimTam

[@diehlleonardo06]

because the third velocity of the hypervolt was not used?

apoun79 so that you can compare the two products their full potential should be explored!

[@ShaneSpitzer]

I agree - it was ridiculous he didn't show a side by side of the 3rd level! It is not the 2nd level that is comparable to the Theragun, but rather the 3rd.

Super helpful review! Thank you. Been considering a tool like this for a while now. I do wish there was a way to angle these for your back. Seems like it would be hard to hit those spots using it by yourself.

Orbital jigsaw costs much much less and packs more power. Also changeable battery which these do not have. These devices are nothing but a consumer ripoff in my book. My jigsaw maxes at 3000rpm with variable speed all the way pending on how hard I squeeze the button. 75$ .

[@hl3199]

Do you actually use your jigsaw for body therapy?? Curious

What 75$? It's between 135$ to 289$ on their homepage.

[@kennleonard2228]

Good job, thanks!

[@dubc42]

Seems like your pushing the Theragun instead of comparing evenly IMO. saying its not aggressive but your on level 2 for the one, it does have a level 3 right? Theragun must have paid you more.

[@theXaint]

Yeah, I was waiting for him to show off level 3. Which he didn't do... which is ridiculous!

[@mauibuilder1239]

Do these work well for myofascial release prior to stretching? Currently I am using a theracane or massage ball.

[@DrewRH176]

I used the hypervolt on my calf with a more aggressive attachment and in no time I had some great results

[@ah5650]

Theragun is good for this. It’s not exactly the same as deep release with a theracane/ball/jacknobber. It’s like it hits a different layer of tissue. And it helps find spots you didn’t know were problematic.
