## What is Halo Sport?

The Halo Sport app controls the Halo Sport headset, which is a wearable neurostimulator that accelerates improvements in skill, power, and endurance when paired with training. Halo Sport works by stimulating the motor cortex of the brain during training, resulting in stronger, more optimized signaling between the brain and muscles. Every day, thousands of athletes, musicians, gamers, military professionals, and others train with Halo Sport to more rapidly develop muscle memory. Learn more about Halo Sport below or visit haloneuro.com. 

WHAT IS NEUROPRIMING

With the Halo Sport app, users can choose from three different Neuropriming sessions: (1) Legs, Core, & Arms, (2) Hand & Fingers - Right Emphasis, and (3) Hand & Fingers - Left Emphasis. According to the selected session, Halo Sport’s foam Primers electrically stimulate specific areas of the motor cortex to induce a temporary state of hyperplasticity. Pairing the resulting hyperplastic brain state with training reps leads to more more precise, coordinated, and explosive movement — whichever is the focus of the user’s training. You can read more about Neuropriming at blog.haloneuro.com/neuroscience.

WHO IS USING HALO SPORT

In professional sports, teams and athletes from the NBA, NFL, NHL, MLB and Olympics are all using Halo Sport to improve athleticism. For example, a double-blind, placebo-controlled study with the U.S. Olympic Ski Team found that ski jumpers who trained with Halo Sport increased propulsive force by an additional 13% and jump smoothness by an additional 11% over the control group after ten consecutive training days. You can see more examples of athletes and musicians training with Halo Sport at youtube.com/c/HaloNeuroscience.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND HALO SPORT

The underlying science behind Halo Sport is called transcranial direct current stimulation (“tDCS”). tDCS is backed by more than a decade of neuroscience research—3,000 peer-reviewed articles covering over 105,000 sessions speak to the technology’s safety and efficacy. In addition, Halo Neuroscience’s team of doctors, scientists, and engineers built Halo Sport according to medical-grade specifications, and successfully tested the device on more than 1,400 volunteers. Read more about the science of tDCS at haloneuro.com/science.

HOW TO USE HALO SPORT

For best results, use Halo Sport during a 20-minute warm-up prior to focused, movement-based training. Simply saturate the Primers with water, put on Halo Sport like any other pair of headphones, and use the Halo Sport app to initiate a 20-minute Neuropriming session. After the 20-minute session ends, take off the headset (or leave it on to listen to music) and continue training. Your brain remains in a hyperplastic state for 60 minutes—use this time to perform high-quality, high-intensity reps.

### 5/5 — I have owed 4+ headsets

*2024-07-03*

I can’t get enough of this revolutionary and slept on piece of equipment I use to enhance my training and daily routine. I’m big into developing myself further as a man and this tech really gives additional focus over time if you lean into it everyday. Find them on OfferUp and make sure they work before you order. Then get ready to rock your world! I would use 75 hard challenge app along side this for the accountability.

### 2/5 — Priming issues

*2024-05-19, version 2.2.0*

Still takes too much effort and time just to get a good connection, even after saturation of the nubs and a wet head.

### 5/5 — The whole app disappeared from Apple Play Store

*2024-02-20*

It was unavailable to download… Like it wasn’t there at all… Like even in (Not in device) or (Past downloaded Apps.) Your Team needs to Fix Quality Updates like important stuff… Like Password Reset issues… Like putting in your email so it can be reset… Or even Verify Phone Numbers… Or signup with Phone Number… Because Nowadays if Somebody Steals my headphones just anybody could use my phone or app and download it to there device… Without Security it’s a big risk because anybody could just take them now… Or even throw them away in the Garbage without permission… Or if they can be registered with the device… With a serial number linked to their account that be great… All that it would take is a firmware update to all devices… that would have a serial number linked to there account… I need security in my Life to keep these headphones from getting in the wrong hands without permission… And I need to be able to rename them on Apple devices…

### 3/5 — App doesn’t find paired headset anymore

*2023-10-09, version 2.2.0*

I’ve paired and unpaired the headset several times yet the app says it can’t find the headset even though the icon on the app says it’s connected. This is terribly disappointing for such an expensive product.

### 5/5 — Works great!!!

*2023-01-30, version 2.2.0*

Very good experience!!!

### 5/5 — Battery Issues

*2023-01-23, version 2.2.0*

Battery is s not charging fully. How do I get the batteries replaced?

### 4/5 — Connectivity is mildly infuriating.

*2022-10-14, version 2.2.0*

I love this unit and understand it’s a newer tech but the connection is an issue if I move at all.

### 5/5 — Wish I could get replacement primer strip!

*2022-03-26*

Love my Halo! So disappointed that they stopped production and replacement parts…I am still getting some use out of it as the little nobs fall off one by one. I get good connection with soaking the primer I have in salt water

### 1/5 — Too bad about contact points

*2022-03-20*

I have had my Halo for about 18 months.  I am continually frustrated by how much pressure the fully saturated contact points require for neuropriming.  It is virtually impossible for me to engage in any activity, even just sitting, without having to apply pressure on the headset band with my hands to maintain effective results.  Hardly as illustrated in your misleading dramatizations. What to do? I can’t change the shape of my noggin, now can I?

### 1/5 — Poor connectivity for Halo Sport

*2021-10-10, version 2.1.13*

Pls address.
