Reduce Injury Impact
In high activity team sports such as football and rugby, injuries impact results and damage the prospects and future finances of the club. Injuries can’t be avoided, but the likelihood of some injuries can be reduced and the impact of those that do occur can be minimised. A simulated altitude facility will help build a stronger, more resilient team, and will maximise player availability for key matches.

Retain Fitness :
-
By having full-on CV workouts using just light mechanical loads, avoiding the usual need to regain fitness – it has not been lost.
Improve Injury Repair :
-
IHT protocols have been shown to increase healing rates of bone, ligament, tendon and muscle due to the actions of HIF1 alpha and VEGF
Stimulate EPO:
-
To create more red blood cells to deliver oxygen more effectively to microtraumas plus improved mitochondrial function for improved tissue repair.
Reduce FUTURE injuries
Reduce Fatigue Related injuries:
-
Hypoxia delays the onset of fatigue by stimulating EPO to create red blood cells, and by improving the body’s ability to buffer lactic acid.
Improve Repeat Sprint Ability:
-
IHT has been shown to improve RSA by 50% or more, reducing the risk of over-reach and poor joint control.

RESULT
MORE PLAYERS AVAILABLE, MORE OF THE TIME
Convert an existing space or add a self-contained pod
A simulated altitude room can be provided to accommodate one player or twenty and can be installed in weeks in any location. Short sessions using light mechanical loads, two or three times a week, will allow fitness to be retained whilst the healing process is accelerated, and resilience is built against future injuries.
The hypoxic stimulus is unique in being able to trigger key repair mechanisms that cannot be arrived at in any other way, whilst also keeping players engaged and motivated.
