Hyperice Normatec 3 Leg Recovery System
The Ultimate Massage Experience
Hyperice Normatec 3 Leg Recovery System
When somebody says "Normatec boots", this is usually the system they mean. A 3.2 lb control unit sits on the floor, a hose runs from it to the boots, and the whole thing zips on in about twenty seconds. The control unit is the part that matters: it holds the pump, the battery and the interface, and it is what the rest of the Normatec 3 attachment family plugs into later.
Compression runs at seven levels across 40 to 110 mmHg, through five overlapping zones per leg. Hyperice's patented Pulse technology uses biomimicry to replicate the natural muscle pumps and one-way valves of the legs, and ZoneBoost gives extra time and pressure to a particular zone. Bluetooth connects the unit to the Hyperice App for curated routines. Battery runs up to 3 hours.
Under the Hood
Normatec 3 Legs Specs & Features
The compression itself is the same engine Hyperice puts in the Elite. What is different is where the pump lives and what you can plug into it.
Living With It
What the Normatec 3 gets right day to day
A separate control unit costs you a piece of kit on the floor. It buys you an upgrade path and a simpler boot.
A Closer Look
Four parts, one system
What’s Included
Four pieces, and it is worth knowing which is which before you open the box, because the hose and the control unit are the two the rest of the Normatec 3 family depends on.
- Normatec 3 control unit — the actual device
- Attachments — leg attachments (2)
- Power supply — connect and charge your device, 15V wall charger with 3 international adapters
- Hose — connects the control unit to the attachments
- Sizes Short, Standard and Tall, chosen by inseam measurement
Intuitive, refreshed design
Normatec 3's refreshed system design features an intuitive interface and reduced weight, with next-level features and customization available through the Bluetooth® connected Hyperice App. The unit measures 4 × 4.5 × 8.5 in and weighs 3.2 lbs, so it lives in a gym bag or on a shelf between sessions. Zip in and power up.
- 3.2 lbs, 4 × 4.5 × 8.5 in
- 7 levels of compression across 40 to 110 mmHg
- Up to 3 hours of battery, or run it plugged in
- Time, pressure and ZoneBoost set on the unit or in the app
Five zones, foot to hip crease
Each leg attachment holds five overlapping chambers. They fill in sequence from the foot upward while the zones already filled hold their pressure, which is the pattern Hyperice calls Pulse. Because the pump is in the control unit, the boot itself stays light and rolls up small.
- 5 overlapping zones per leg for gapless compression
- Full-length zip closure over the whole leg
- Three sizes: Short under 31" inseam, Standard 31" to 35", Tall over 35"
- Between sizes, Hyperice recommends sizing down
