Recommended by a friend, I signed up with The Altitude Centre for Intermittent Hypoxic Training ahead of my attempt to climb Aconcagua in January 2006. The benefits of pre-acclimitisation became readily clear during my ascent and allowed me to get the most from

my high altitude challenge. I firmly believe that IHT played a critical role in my preparations and that it was an important element in my successful achievement of the summit. I will definitely include it in future training and I recommend others to do so too. Fantastic!”

Coca-Cola Cup Football League Championship

I've seen big fitness improvements in the players, especially from one player who tends to train at a high heart rate and thus has problems with recovery.

One of our players suffers from sports induced asthma and has also noticed the benefits.
I believe the hypoxicator to be a practical devise that can be incorporated into existing training schedules where it can be used to assist fitness whilst reducing the training effect on injured players".

“We have been using this devise for almost a year now with consistent improvements in endurance performance capacity in all athletes from novice to elite. The improvements are consistently in the range of 1-3% across the board which, at a competitive level, is most significant”.

Dr. John Hellemans
Sports Medicine Practitioner, Coach and Athlete, New Zealand

“We had our unit installed in our sports medicine clinic approximately 2 years ago. I am very happy with the results. We have had over 200 athletes, mountaineers and patients use IHT with excellent results and a response rate of roughly 70-80% (based on subjective perception, testing and or blood tests)… research project we did early on with 10 elite athletes which showed a significant improvement in performance of 3% and increase in (Hb) and Hct of 4.5% and reticulocytes of 28%.”

Cav Burke
French Polisher

‘I was pretty surprised. The course of IHT left me half a stone lighter. I found my recovery rate at the gym was getting faster. I was even happier to discover that after three weeks of IHT, my blood pressure had fallen by 15%.

Lost 7lbs in 3 weeks and climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro

“I booked my course of IHT with The Altitude Centre because I want to get to the top of Mt Kilimanjaro. So far during my course I have noticed the difference at the gym and in my walking. I’ve improved my 10k running personal best by time by 51seconds and I left my husband behind on the hills of the Peak district last weekend”.

Everst Base Camp. “Well it was defintely an adventure. For the most part really great but also pretty hard and sooooooo cold. Coped with the altitude just fine”.

I arrived back late yesterday after a very successful trip. On 30 June I reached Gilman's Point for sunrise and made it to Uhuru Peak at about 8am. There was no wind at the summit so I was able to enjoy the fantastic views as the ice cliffs changed colour.

I even managed the challenge of 5 press ups on the summit to double some of my sponsorship money!

I experienced no effects of the altitude until about 5,300m when I started to get tired but I had the confidence that I could make it thanks to the altitude training. This confidence and will power saw me through those final switchbacks up the scree slope and the scrambling over the boulders to Gilman's. Obtained a second breathe after the sun rose to get to Uhuru.

Arrived down at Horombo huts at about 5pm. A very long, hard day but a great sense of achievement.

See you in September for a top up!

“We’re putting on a music gig at Everest, The Altitude Centre tested 20 of our Musician to see how they’ll cope. Let’s just say a couple of us are coming back for pre-acclimatisation sessions!”.

“Using the IHT surely helped me climb Kilimanjaro at age 70. After 4 vessel bypass heart surgery.".

Bear Grylls
Adventurer

'This is a fantastic way of boosting red blood cells and improving general fitness, as well as of course making a critical difference to those involved with high-altitude climbing.'

-------------------------------------------------------------

Tom Clowes
Mountaineeer. Everest Expedition 2004

‘Fantastic. We got pre-acclimatised to 22,000ft before we left for our Mt. Everest expedition.
This speeded up our acclimatisation process and put us in good stead for our summit attempt. Anyone who is serious about getting to the top should try it’.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Sean Burch
Mountaineer, USA

“The hypoxicator was an essential part of my training before leaving on the Mt Everest expedition.

I truly believe that because of the combination of intermittent hypoxic training and knowledge of high altitude practices, I showed NO signs of HAPE, HACE, or any other high altitude related illnesses until I got above 8000 meters.

"..just got back from rainier no problem with altitude I really appreciate all you have done for my training next year kilimanjaro"

Dr. Thomas R Eanelli
Medical Director, Eleanor Snow Radiation Oncology Centre, USA

“When I purchased the hypoxicator system, it was my expectation that it would make me stronger, faster, and prepared to quickly acclimatize to the serious heights of world class mountains, so I wasn’t surprised when all the above mentioned things occurred. What shocked me however, was the intangible feeling of well being, the amount of energy and vigour, which came as a welcome residue of the hypoxicator. I feel as if I found the fountain of youth as I feel better each day that goes by”.

 

Anastasia Stephens
The Independent, Health Journalist

“I only had three sessions, but after each hour I felt invigorated and I was breathing more deeply. My heart rate went down from 60bpm to 57bpm and my blood pressure dropped from 117/79 to 100/65. Not bad for three hours of doing nothing but breathe”.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Vince Heaney
Recreational Cyclist

"Recovering from a long-term viral problem, my energy levels are always a problem. The course of IHT reduced the severity of my symptoms and allowed me to cope with a recent two-week snowboarding trip at high altitude. On a recent ride a club mate even uttered those seldom-heard words, 'you were going well on the bike today'"
