Sporting Edge produce the most advanced and sophisticated environmental chambers in the world.

There are two main areas where Altitude Training can bring about real benefits:

  • Improving Performance.
  • Retaining (or even improving) fitness when injured.


Altitude training is an incredible way to try and maximize your body’s capacity and efficiency. Either as a plateau buster, a training block to start a season firing on all cylinders or as an ongoing strategy to train smart and get the biggest bang for your buck, altitude training can fit into your plan and make a significant difference to your fitness and performance.

Altitude training is about breathing in an atmosphere where there is less oxygen available than is normal at sea level. This can be done whilst exercising (Active Training) or whilst resting (Passive Training).

Both techniques stimulate the body into making positive adaptations in response to this reduced oxygen availability, but the adaptations are quite different between Active Training and Passive Training.

WHAT IS SIMULATED ALTITUDE TRAINING

In natural altitude – up a mountain – oxygen availability is less because the air density reduces with increasing altitude as a result of the reducing air pressure. The air is sometimes said to be “thinner”. Air is composed of roughly 21% oxygen, 78% nitrogen and 1% other gases and these

proportions remain constant everywhere. The only one of these gases used by the body is oxygen; the others are simply breathed in and out. So, at altitude, even though the proportions stay the same, there is less oxygen in every lungful of air just as there is less nitrogen and other gases.

WHAT IS THE BENEFITS OF ALTITUDE TRAINING

There are a huge number of scientific papers that have been published which demonstrate the remarkable improvements that Altitude Training can provide. A comprehensive list is included on the Sporting Edge Website but a few of the findings are shown below.
