MOUNTAINEERING
MOUNTAINEERING
The higher you climb, the thinner the air gets. You begin to feel hypoxia — a lack of oxygen. Dizziness, drowsiness, tinnitus, chills and heavy perspiration, and blue lips occur because the body is not prepared for high altitudes and a lack of oxygen in the inhaled air. To successfully reach such altitudes, you must acclimatize yourself beforehand to prepare your body for altitude
WHAT TRAINING AT ALTITUDE IS GOOD FOR
WHAT TRAINING AT ALTITUDE IS GOOD FOR
Decrease THE risk of altitude sickness
Improve
acclimatization
Enhancing performance at altitude
Increase speed of recovery at altitude
Increase the chances of a successful climb
Increase your confidence at altitude
You will receive all the necessary information about the altitude, how your body responds to high altitude, and possible causes that can lead to mountain sickness. You will receive all the necessary tools to prevent altitude sickness, and we will provide you with a step-by-step plan for the expedition preparation.
When you use simulated altitude, it can be challenging to understand what altitude or method is best for you. How do combine different training methods? We will provide you with a hypoxic program that will be based on your physiological parameters and related to your training plan. We provide a hypoxic training program that will target your planned ascent altitude.
In one year, you plan to climb Everest, Manaslu, or any other 8000 mt mountain or below. We will provide you with the perfect year plan to fit all your needs and help you prepare for altitude and get in the best shape.

During the hypoxic training period, your body will need more energy and microelements. We will provide you with a nutritional and hydration plan that considers all your body's needs. Additionally, we can elaborate on your nutrition plan to support your endurance and strength training.
To improve the beneficial effect of altitude training and help your body to adapt better and recover faster, we will provide you with the individual supplement program. You will improve your immune function, recovery, and training efficiency. Additionally, we can elaborate supplement programs to prepare your body for the expedition or support your body during the summit. This program will help your body to adapt faster to the altitude, decrease the risk of illness during the expedition and improve your performance at altitude.

We will provide you with the individual training plan designed especially for your summit. For our plans, we use the best training analytics platform - Training Peaks. You will enjoy this experience and get the most out of your training.
During the expedition, everything can happen. Having a high-altitude professional that will support you during the expedition will dramatically increase сhances of a successful ascent. we have experience supporting the Everest expeditions, the South and the North Pole, Vinson peak, Denali, Ojos del Salado, and other summits.
Behind every athlete, there is a support team. If you are looking for professional support for your training, we will be happy to help. Our specialist will be in touch with you 24/7 and will provide you with daily analysis and feedback on every workout, adjustments of hypoxic exposure, nutrition, supplements, and training load if needed.

Altitude training, also known as hypoxic training, involves exercising and living at altitude or using hypoxic generator systems to reduce the amount of oxygen in the air for the purpose of improved athletic performance, pre-acclimatization to altitude and /or health, and weight loss.
Everyone can benefit from altitude training: improve athletic performance, prepare for the mountain expedition, and improve your energy level, health and well-being. And with our professional support, you will avoid common mistakes and achieve your goals faster.
Under the influence of hypoxia, the adrenal glands release erythropoietin, which triggers a cascade of processes to form a hematological response. Exposure to altitudes above 1600-1800 meters is necessary to stimulate erythropoiesis. An increase in total hemoglobin mass by 1% per week at an altitude of 2,500 meters could result in an increase of total hemoglobin mass by 12% after a 12-week stay at that altitude. The individual secretion of erythropoietin directly influences the increase in total hemoglobin mass. There is also a clear relationship between the increase in total hemoglobin mass, and a change of 1 g/kg in total hemoglobin mass, according to scientific publications, results in a change of 4.4 ml/kg/min in maximal oxygen consumption.
Altitude also leads to non-hematological adaptations. Non-hematological adaptations include muscular, metabolic, and ventilatory adaptations. All of these adaptations lead to an increase in performance. Among muscular adaptations, we can distinguish improvement of mitochondrial function, an increase in capillarization and myoglobin in the muscles, and muscle buffering capacity. The metabolic effect refers to the stimulation of the glycolytic pathway and through ventilatory adaptations to hypoxia. Energetic properties are also improved, including energy efficiency, leading to an increase in performance.
