Get better results, in less time, with less effort.
Altitude and hypoxic environment training has been used for many years by athletes across many sports to improve performance. The lower oxygen concentration in an altitude environment causes the body to be more efficient at using fuel and oxygen, and triggers a variety of physiological responses and changes in your body at a number of levels that improve metabolic efficiency.
Hypoxic training sessions can give you a great workout with much less stress on your body, or enhance the effectiveness of any workout you do and make your exercise more time efficient. Clients with limited exercise tolerance (e.g. can only walk) get more value from altitude training.
Hypoxic training enhances and accelerates the positive outcomes of
exercise on:
- Fat Loss, reduced appetite and increased leptin hormone levels
- Diabetes management/prevention and insulin/glucose sensitivity
- Osteoporosis and bone density
- Aerobic endurance and energy levels
- Anaerobic fitness and lactic acid tolerance
- Anaemia, due to increased EPO, red blood cells and haemoglobin
- Testosterone and growth hormone
- Hypertrophy (lean body mass) and strength training outcomes
- Cardiac surgery rehabilitation
- Insomnia, serotonin and endorphins
Other potential benefits include:
- Improved dexterity, co-ordination and cognitive decision making under stress and when fatigued.
- Excites neural plasticity and facilitates positive re-wiring of the brain and central nervous system.
- Enhanced collagen production, with improvements in wound healing, beauty treatment outcomes and skin elasticity.
Altitude training technology is currently used extensively by:
- The Australian Institute of Sport and many other world class institutes of sports.
- Many professional sporting teams.
- Elite sports people (including golfers and formula one drivers) seeking to improve co-ordination and performance under stress.
- Leading edge executives to enhance their performance, decision making, negotiating and cognitive abilities in stressful and demanding situations.
- Hospitals and beauty clinics to optimise the outcome for their patients and clients.
Training in a hypoxic environment will potentially help you go faster and further, react quicker, think sharper, feel stronger and more focused.
