Aug 8 - Close to the Vest

whitevest1a.jpgWhat do most if not all athletes have in common? Let’s see! They’re rich, super gifted and famous. No! Well yes! But more importantly, whether on the court, on the football or soccer field or simply in the weight room trying to make sure their bodies stay tight, they ALL work up a sweat and increase their body temperatures.

This common problem can be solved with the new cooling vests by Artic Heat USA (http://www.arcticheatusa.com/). They aren’t inexpensive, but health should be the most important thing to any athlete.

This cooling vest takes the premise of the popular neck cooler to the next level. Utilizing special crystals, the Artic Heat vests lower the body temperature of the individual to combat the unavoidable overheating that the body will go through when involved in strenuous activity or extreme heat.

But don’t fret footballers; these vests can also be heated. So when you head to Green Bay this winter, you will be prepared.

The Artic USA vest stays cold up to 2 hours and can be re-cooled in about 10 to 15 minutes; just enough time to whip up a protein shake. And it’s lightweight, weighing in at just over 2 pounds. The average athlete walks around with more than 2 pounds of gear on just to be ready for a game.

So next time your coach says, it’s going to be a long practice today, you won’t sweat it—literally.
