Simulated Altitude Training is quickly emerging as the world's most promising development in the world of athletic performance and peak fitness. As your body begins to adjust to repeated exposure to reduced oxygen (hypoxic) environments, amazing physiological changes occur making you faster, stronger, healthier and leaner. Whether you are training for the Olympics or just trying to get in shape, altitude training is a true training revolution.

SPORTING EDGE, your ultimate training aid for:

-
-
-
increased performance
accelerated return to fitness following injury
improved overall health and well being.
 
 

Sporting Edge are world leaders in the provision of precisely controlled reduced oxygen (hypoxic) enviroments that can also include integrated control of temperature and humidity.

Sporting Edge pioneered the development of ultra high flow systems and their patent protected technology provides the optimum blend of control, reliability, saftey and operating range.

 
 
Simulated Altitude Training is a natural and almost universally accepted technique to maximise potential, providing:-

-
-
-
-
-
improvements in the cardiovascular system
increased oxygen carrying capacity of the blood
increased exercise tolerance
increased anaerobic exercise capacity
faster fuel burning

These translate directly into improved performance, increased work capacity and faster recovery - the achievement of that critical 'SPORTING EDGE.'
 
 

In the high pressure world of international competition or professional sport, Sporting Edge systems provide the means of achieving the extra endurance, power or critical half yard of pace that defines the winner from the loser. And with a Sporting Edge system your recovery from injury is accelerated whilst your fitness level is maintained.

Training in a Sporting Edge environment not only improves fitness and performance, it also increases calorie burn and so is an effective element of any weight control regime.

Sporting Edge systems improve athletic performance at all levels, and are also a platform for serious scientific study. Customised systems are also available to provide similar benefits for racehorses and greyhounds. Contact us for more information.

 
 
 

"With a 3-5% increase in speed and endurance, anyone can dramatically improve their race results. Three percent may not sound like a lot, but 3% was the difference between 1st place (a gold medal) and 25th place in the Sydney Olympics 10K. It was the difference between first and last in the Tour de France.

Improvements of up to 40% have been recorded in controlled studies."

“Simulated altitude training forms a key part of my training, and I have seen real benefits both in my performance and my physiology since adopting a regular altitude training strategy, made possible by the Sporting Edge chamber at the English Institute of Sport, St Mary’s University College. Additionally, in the near future I hope to be able to spend significant periods of time living and training at altitude, and certainly pre-acclimatisation using simulated altitude will allow these training blocks to be most effective, as I won’t need such a long adaptation period on arrival in the mountains.”
