Body Spa Light Body Sauna Suit Neoprene Full Body Shaper Gym Sport Aerobic

I’m primarily a rower, and I wear this suit for my daily 10k rows at low intensity, as well as other forms of low-intensity steady state workouts (LISS). It feels AMAZING to wear this suit for many reasons, and I’m totally converted!!Sizing - I’m tall and thin: 6’1”, 160 lbs, size 10 pants, 39” hips and 31” waist, 36D. According to the chart, I should have gotten a Large based on my weight. But I got a Medium because I prefer tight fits. And indeed, it’s VERY tight on me, so I think their size chart is spot-on correct. The material is 65% neoprene, 25% nylon, 10% spandex.Pros:-It does its primary job of making you sweat more! The sweat literally runs down your legs and arms from the suit! Gross, but effective!-The tight fit actually improves your posture (pulls your shoulders back) and encourages good form in whatever movement you’re doing, which is also good for injury prevention. It’s like wearing a back brace, feels REALLY nice.-Due to the increased heat, the muscles remain warmer and therefore more flexible. During my long 10k rows, my usual tension spots which develop are now completely gone, and I’m honestly shocked at how much more comfortable and enjoyable my workouts are when I wear this suit. I feel like a well-oiled machine!-Working out in this suit produces an “afterburn” effect which causes you to burn more calories after the workout. (Similar to the effect that HIIT has). This is why it can produce greater FAT loss results when used consistently, aside from the simple water weight loss it will cause.-Visually, the suit is very flattering! It also gives you a great opportunity to show off any bras you really like to wear. ;)Cons:-The material in the gluteal region is actually see-through!!! Was not expecting this! I tried every color of underwear, doesn’t matter, you can still see it!-The zipper can easily unzip because the suit is very tight, and astoundingly there is no clasp at all to secure the zipper. I made my own clasp, because I fear it will definitely come unzipped.-It’s a little bit of a hassle to keep it clean to prevent it constantly smelling like sweat, because you can’t machine wash it. You basically have to rinse it and let it drip dry, just like a wetsuit, and hope it doesn’t stink! Haha.Additional comments/recommendations:This is NOT meant for “heavy or prolonged exercise,” and there are tags attached specifically warning you about this. You WILL begin to heat up rapidly after a certain point. Then your heart rate will be be stuck elevated (even at a slower pace than normal) at which point you risk overheating if you continue for a long time. I therefore STRONGLY recommend a HR monitor, so that you can monitor your HR and continue working out safely, and get MAXIMUM results! I think you can definitely work out for a long time in this suit, as long as you’re smart about it. But be aware that by doing this (keeping a safe HR), your pace will be slower. You’re NOT gonna get record-breaking times for any endurance pieces in this suit. In fact they’ll be worse, but don’t feel discouraged -- you’re still getting a great, satisfying workout, with added benefits of extra sweating and long-term greater fat loss results.To summarize … in general, DON’T use this suit when:-Your workouts are focused on high intensity, or you want to achieve your best times.-It’s already hot outside.

The quality of this suit appeared to be excellent. I ordered a medium according to their rather vague size chart and reviews that had me suspecting that I'd be a medium. I'm 5'3" 140 lbs, 29"waist, 40" hips. The suit was much too tight in the arms/shoulders/ribcage but ok in the hips and legs. I managed to get it on, but it would've been too constricting for a power yoga type workout. The arms were the worst - it felt like they were going to cut off my circulation almost immediately. Getting out of the suit was even more difficult!! I wish they hadn't put the tag on the zipper, because I accidentally pulled it off while attempting to pull the zipper up trying it on. Hopefully Amazon doesn't ding me for that, because I returned the suit perfectly new and unworn in its original packaging. I'm considering ordering a large, just because I really liked the design of the suit (especially the way the buttock region is non-neoprene). But honestly I'm getting a little burned out on buying and returning stuff that doesn't work out. I live in a fairly rural area, where my primary access to shopping is online, and it just bums me out to be repeatedly having to send stuff back due to inaccurate website descriptions. I just wish that manufacturers could get better about their size charts. Maybe they should post photos of women wearing the different sizes, along with their actual body measurements, so that we consumers have a better shot of choosing the right size the first time...

I purchased this item in July with the intention of working out (which I've been procrastinating on doing)! I look at a great deal of products on Instagram and YouTube. I was aware I didn't want a sauna vest because I didn't like the construction, and I was aware I needed one product to target mg areas of concern (thighs, abdomen, upper arms)! I don't like gimmicky things nor multiple items because I like to keep things as simple as possible. I read the reviews here on Amazon and decided to get an XL. I am 5'5, 205 pounds, with weight in my hips, butt & lower pouch. I left this suit hanging in my closet until recently when I finally tried it on, it fits it's slightly snug but I can tell after 10 pounds lost it will be loose and that's pretty much due to my shape (pear shape) I had the suit on at home for 10 minutes just walking around in it and my body instantly heated up! as to get longer wear out of this expensive item... I'm going to wear thin leggings and an undershirt underneath as I have sensitive skin and began itching on my arm.... also to prolong wear I plan on wrapping a sport waist trainer around the suit when it becomes loose after weight lost.... I think I've found a great addition to my work out plan. .. recently I've purchased a 3 month membership to my favorite gym for $40 on Groupon. I will definitely try to come back towards the end of October for a 1 month update. Happy Work Out Ladies
