But while the Elite may be able to go deeper, the Pro can go faster: at 2700 PPM, it beats the Elite’s top speed by 300 PPM. This is at the higher end of an average amplitude range, although the Theragun Elite boasts a longer 16mm stroke length. Several reviews also estimated the amplitude (the distance the attachment and shaft extend from the gun) to be around 14mm. This is especially impressive given that I was using the Pro on some bony areas, usually prone to cause bounce back (thanks, cushion attachment). I also never experienced my biggest massage gun pet peeve - recoil. There were only a few times when I felt the gun slow down a bit, but overall, the Pro’s power and force stayed consistent. Several reviews estimated the Pro’s stall force at around 35 pounds, and that felt accurate by my standards.

Charging the Pro once got me through an entire week’s worth of testing, with plenty of battery left to spare.Ī brushless 90 watt high-torque motor provides decent power during usage. The Theragun Pro doubles the Hypervolt 2 Pro’s run time with a six hour life, but you’ll pay $200 more for that extra three hours. The Hypervolt 2 Pro has an exceptional battery life - at three hours, it outlasts the Theragun Elite and the Theragun Mini by 60 and 30 minutes respectively. Hyperice Hypervolt 2 Pro review: Performance You can throw it into your gym bag or suitcase and know that the small pieces won’t get lost or misplaced. Hyperice provides a small zippered case that holds all five attachments comfortably. I think I could work my way up to using these attachments without wincing, but it would take some time. Using the fork on my calves and the bullet on my glutes was a different story, however. It’s a design more massage gun manufacturers should employ.ĭespite being made from hard plastic, the flat attachment relieved tension in my quads after long runs without feeling too painful. The “give” of the cushion meant it could be used on my shoulders, neck, and the bonier areas of my leg without fear of recoil or stall. The cushion was also helpful in targeting my super sensitive upper traps and lower lateral quads. Hanging onto the box is always an option, albeit not a very space-saving one. But on the other hand, if I’m going to pay a few hundred bucks for a massage gun, I’d like to know that it could be protected appropriately during transport. Since it’s pretty sturdy, you could most likely get away with cushioning it between some thick sweatshirts and tossing it in your bag. A downside for the frequent flyer is that the Pro doesn’t come with a case (although a small bag does hold all of the attachments separately).

Another plus for the jetsetting crowd - it’s TSA approved for your carry-on. Included with the Hypervolt 2 Pro are three different power outlet adapters, which is welcome news if you plan on traveling internationally with your gun.

Powering up the Pro is done by flipping a switch on the bottom of the handle, right next to its charging port.

Outfitted with Bluetooth connectivity, a sole light on the bottom of the Pro’s dial will illuminate when pairing your gun to the Hyperice App (available for iOS and Android). Three more lights on the bottom half of the dial will show your current force production, according to the Pro’s patented pressure sensor technology. Speed is controlled by turning a wide dial on the back of the gun, with small lights on the circumference indicating the current PPM. The Hypervolt 2 Pro has five speeds: 1700, 1900, 2100, 2400, and 2700 percussions per minute (or PPM).

Admittedly my hands are smaller than average, but it should still be noted. This was compounded by the fact that the Pro’s handle was just a little too wide to feel like I could get a super secure grip.

But there are some disadvantages as well, like the fact that holding the gun by the bottom of its handle began to wear my wrists out after some time. More weight does have its advantages: the Pro’s solid composition means you won’t necessarily need to worry about its fragility. This T-shape configuration doesn’t allow for a lot of variety in your grip like the triangular Theragun Elite does, but its basic, straightforward construction works well to target most of your body’s tight spots.Īt 2.6 pounds, the Pro is about half a pound heavier than the TimTam Power Massager, and over a pound heavier than the Theragun Mini. The Hyperice Hypervolt 2 Pro has a relatively common design - much like the Sportneer Deep Tissue massager and the Legiral Le3, the Pro’s long vertical handle is affixed to its horizontally oriented shaft and brushless 90 watt motor.
